Any suggestions on what I can do while my 11 mo. old naps during the day? There's only so much cleaning I can do, otherwise I just wait for her to wake up and click away on the computer.

As far as sleep...I am getting plenty. My baby sleeps from 8:00p.m. to 8:00a.m, sometimes later, so I don't really need a nap in the afternoon. She naps from 12:30ish to 3:00p.m. I am trying to figure out what to do with myself during the time that she naps.

Do something for YOURSELF!!! :) Take a bubble bath, do your toenails, just do a little something that makes you feel great!

Maybe some exercise if you are into that. It always makes me feel better even though I dont do it enough. How about getting things ready for dinner? Or reading... um.... what else.... I know how you feel I have 1 yr old and its like you cant go run errands while they sleep or sweep the floor so what can you do... I know what I do... i get all the things done that he wont let me do while he's up such as folding clothes, (he loves to tear them apart) or peeling potatoes for dinner or taking a much needed break where I just sit and do nothing, maybe indulge in some meaningless tv for an hour etc... and god bless your baby for taking that long of a nap, my little man only sleeps about an hour so I dont get much done anyway

Sleep when your baby sleeps. Therefore if your baby wakes up in the middle of the night you wont be sleepy the next morning. Also you could exercise (use tapes/dvds or machines if you have any). Get into great shape since you have the time on your hands in between sleeping, eating, or cleaning.

Take up a hobby. Crafts for example. Scrapbook your childs life. It's very rewarding.
