The conversation around phone screen time - and how much is too much - usually centres around children and teens.
But new research has highlighted the impact of phone use by another group - new mums.
Any tired parent will tell you that screen time can be a welcome source of distraction, but it turns out it can also interfere with parent/child bonding and a baby’s development.
Dr Miriam McCaleb from the University of Canterbury is lead researcher on the study, she talks to Jesse.
