I have a Senegal parrot for year and half, and expecting a baby of my own in Sep.
Since my parrot is very attached to me, I need some advices from you guys~
I used to sit in the same room with my parrot, but now I have to clean up the space as baby's room. So I move parrot to the living room while I sit in baby's room.
Ever since then, she's very noisy.
I tried spending less time with her/ putting on music (even birds' chirpping sound)/ buying toys/ putting more boxes for her to destroy/ giving her various foods.....none of them work for long.
I am wondering what everyone who's having a newborn baby & parrot at the same time do?
Do you put the baby & bird in the same room/ within eyeshot with you? Or how do you handle when bird is needy and baby is crying?
Is it suggested to send the bird to bird shop in the first 3 months? or keep it home and let baby gets used to it? (I heard it won't wake up the baby, but the noise level is trigging my nerves now@@- pregnant women could be more sensitive, plus I couldn't sleep well in the night and the bird wakes me up early in the morning...).
Thanks.
