Daily routine for a 3-month-old baby

Hi mamas,
I was wondering what your daily routine looks like with a baby of about 3 months.
At this time, they shouldn't be sleeping as much as in the beginning, right??
My little one wasn't sleeping that much anyway. But I'm trying to get him to grasp things now.. He can pick things up himself but doesn't really handle them yet, I do a lot of tummy time exercises with him, we talk a lot, sing a lot and
go for walks. He sleeps from about 7 pm until 11 pm, then a bottle, then sleeps again until 6 am, another bottle & sleeps again until about 8:30/9:00 hihi. So he does get a good night's rest. Then he usually wants to sleep for a little while around 12 and later in the afternoon. That's how we do it
But I was curious about your daily schedules and how many exercises and which ones you do with your babies for their development!!

    It's been a long time for me (at least it feels like that)

    I fed him when he asked. I did try to keep to certain times so he'd build a routine quickly, but at 3 months I found that really tough.
    He slept whenever it suited him. As soon as he got long-lasting fussy or rubbed his eyes, I'd put him straight into his crib.
    I put him under the baby gym at 4 months. He loved looking around and playing.

    Michelle, what Michelle says is spot on. Three months is often still manageable. I also stuck to fixed times and thought it would work out, but my son just wanted to eat when he was hungry. Now at two years old, it happens naturally, but three was really an hour of randomness. Don't give up on those tummy exercises, they're fun for him. It'll all work out fine.
