You need a routine?

When you have a baby people talk about getting the routine right so often that you'll wonder if you got drunk and signed up to be a Vegas showgirl.

Of course you do need one - what other lifeboat will you cling to in the stormy sea of parenthood. I know some parents claim to reject any semblence of a routine but if you're reading this I dare say you aim to function within society in some way and that will involve at least a few daily goals. Whether you want to read to you child or start your next novel this video explains why I think you should treat your day like a baseball game.
