The tv is on in our house almost all day at the moment and has been for most of this pregnancy, but mostly when DD1 is at kindy and its just me and DD2. Normally though its not tv but dvds. Like BG, my DD will put a dvd on and then completely ignore it while she colours, do jigsaws or whatever. The days that have been good the kids are outside pretty much all day and so no tv is on then at all.

I feel guilty about it on the days that DD2 stays put and really watches the tv, but tbh at the moment I'm not capable of entertaining her so I figure at least she's happy and not constantly being told that mummy is too sick to play with her.
