Digital picture frames = screen time?

  I don't think it counts of screen time. the concern with the television is the fast moving images. just looking at pictures on your phone or digital picture frame won't have the same impact -- at least that's what I tell myself.

  I would count that as screen time as the images move on their own.

  IVF #1- BFP- DD 4/8/2011
  

  FET #1- 3BB and 3B-B

  Beta #1 (4w0d)- 504

  Beta #2 (4w4d)- 4,577

  Beta #3 (6w0d)- 78,399 HB 115 bpm

  U/S #2 7w0d- HB 155 bpm

  Thanks for the feedback. Hm, maybe we'll just use it occasionally.

  You're really really over thinking this.
  Show the kid the picture frame. It's a cute idea.

  Oh honey, you're in for a world of hurt when you find out what's to come. This will soon be the least of your worries, and you'll be shoving your phone in that kid's face so fast, just for a moment of silence.

  You mean you don't keep a daily log of your LO's screen time down to the second?

  That log would probably exist on the iPad I can't pry away from my 3 year old

  My kid was watching Roseanne today. The Halloween episodes.
  
  I wouldn't worry too much about the digital photo frame. It's the 21st century version of a baby's first photo album.

  I'm just sitting here waiting for my baby's brain to melt out of her ears and for her to become old enough to start robbing banks or whatever this "life of crime" equals.  I can only hope that she will make lots of money to pay for our fancy nursing home lifestyle before being locked up.

  My guy has watched 2 football games today. I think as long as you're doing other mentally stimulating/ educational things a bit of tv isn't bad.

  My pediatrician actually said that watching football was ok bc it was a "family activity" and we all watch together. She said that obviously just sticking LO in fri tog the TV to get a moments piece is a no no at this point but if the family is watching football together and talking and hanging out all day Sunday it's nbd...

  My baby is really entranced with watching football with Daddy.  Glad to see he's not the only one!

  
  

  He was also watching daddy play the PS4 yesterday.

  Yea our DD watches Henry Hugglemonster with her Daddy while he eats breakfast before work. It's adorable. I watched plenty of TV as a kid and I managed to survive.
