where does your baby go when you are at work? I was just curious to see what everyone else is doing when they are at work! Could you tell me your baby's age and what you do with him/her while you are at work? (ie: crate / cage / free roam of the house / babysitter etc) and for how long are they alone? Thanks in advance for all your help! We would love some input in how to make our baby safe and happy! Michelle |
Riot will be 6 months old on June 6. Right now he's somewhere between 3 and 3.5 pounds. We have a gate in our bathroom doorway. We used to close the door since he could fit through the gaps even though they were less than 2 inches between the bars, but now he can't squeeze through. He stays in his "jail" but I work evenings and by bf works days so he's usually in there for only a few hours at a time. He has toys, food, water and a crate pad. We no longer put his crate in there, just leave it in the bedroom. We also used to put a pee pad in there, but he'd never use it. At first he'd pee on the floor, then he started just holding it and would go when we got home so we do't bother with it anymore. He doesn't have accidents in there! |
I work from home so we aren't gone for long periods of time on a regular basis. Wrigley is pretty well potty trained and if we are going to be gone for less than 4-5 hours we just leave him out. He will be a year old on this Sunday. If we are going to be gone longer than that we put him into the kitchen with a gate keeping him in there. We leave him plenty of food and water either way. Rae is 3 years old, but has a small bladder, and while I know she wouldn't get into anything - she does have accidents. So unless we are going to be gone less than about an hour, she goes into the kitchen with the gate up, again with plenty of water and food and toys (though she doesn't play with them). |
My Bella My baby girl just stays in the bedroom with her favourite toys (12 weeks). I arranged with work to have a longer lunch break and then I go back and feed her and give her some cuddles, its awesome! |
Couver is almost 8 months (oh my goodness, he's growing up!). He has free range of the house. He is pretty much potty trained, so he goes on the potty pads if he needs, plays with the cats, and basks in the sun all day. He does have his occasional poopy accidents, but those are easy to clean up. I know letting him have free range isn't the best, but it is what I feel most comfortable with. I would feel bad if he were caged for the times that we are gone. |
My Frankie is 9 months and i put up a gate between the kitchen and living room for him, he have his food and toys until his daddy comes home. Usually he is home for about 4 hours by his self.:) |
cash is 4 and since he was about 1 he has been roaming the house while im at at school, hes really good for long periods of time. |
I am fully disabled, and can't work> So I am home all the time, with my little Suzi. She is great company. My son is also disabled, however, goes to H.S. out of town and gone all day long. I had not thought about how it would of been like if I had worked beforehand, getting Suzi though. One goodthing, is that I was able to have brought her home when someone was always here with her. However, i've been in the hospital for over 8 days, and my brothers has taken care of her then. Cathy |
Usually I take her with me to work:p But when I'm at school (4-5 hrs) I let her stay in my room... she has my bed, her steps, her bed, toys, food/water, pee pad, etc. I always leave the blinds open or some type of light on, along with the tv just incase she gets bored. She's been doing this since she was about 3 months old... now she's 2 wks away from 6 months! |
Tia has the freedom of the dinning room while im at work from 8.30-11.45. I have an hour for lunch to play with her then she stays in there again from 12.45 -2.45.Shes never had an accident with toilet yet. she is 11 months old. :D |
All of mine are employed. ;) They come with me to work. |

I have 3 yorkies that are 5 mths old. Two of them are 4 pds and one is 2 pds. When we are at work they stay in the bathroom with their toys, food, and water. They have a big pet bed to sleep in with their blanket. We have learned to take the toilet paper of the toilet paper holder when we leave. They had a toilet paper party one day while we were at work. Never a dull moment with these 3:rolleyes: |
