I'm so embarrased to say, I did this with DD1 She NEVER used to watch tv when she was younger. And I mean never. So I had to kind of force it onto her just so I could get some spare time to attend to DD2.

The others have given you great suggestions though.

Dont listen to the advice of others it will drive you insane hahahahhahhaha

follow your nose, learn your nursery rhymes and buy lots of books to read together.
Try not to push your eldest away when attending to the newest member, let them help and join in, even if your BF take that time to read a book. We use to sing about anything...
