Tips for Stay-at-Home Parents

Having a baby can turn the most social parent into something of a homebody. (Hey, it can be a lot of work to get that little baby out the door!) And while you really should do your best to get up and at 'em when you can, sometimes you really do end up stuck in the house. But that doesn't mean you can't make the most of it!

We've got some tips for making your time at home beneficial, productive ... and fun:

If you haven't yet, join our online community of awesome parents. Get tips from celebrity moms and dads, find expert advice on everything from diaper rash to baby sleep issues, check out cool baby products and laugh your butt off as other new parents regale you with the trials and tribulations of parenthood!

Forget window-shopping, it's all about online shopping when you're a new parent. You can get great deals on diapers, books, toys—anything you ever dreamed of (and a ton of junk you never did!). Just don't spend your kid's college fund on Amazon!

If your feeling cooped up and baby is a little fussy, entertain him with some fun stay-at-home activities. Try educational singing games, tummy time games, gentle newborn neck stretches and baby massage.

Now if only someone would baby you and give you a little rubdown!
