Mommies, how are y'all playing with your babies?

I don't care if your baby is 4 months, 5 months, 678, i need to know. If you're reading to them, how are you keeping them engaged? How are you talking to them? What makes you close with your baby? What is your playtime or daily routine like?

I realized my mommy and daddy issues now that I am a mother. My parents would no engage or socialize with us. And I want to break that cycle. But I just do not know how. I really want details.

My girl is a happy, easy girl. But I just don't know how to interact with her. I find myself distracting her with toys while I play on my phone.

ETA: I was diagnosed with Autsim (great deal of disappointment for my parents) so I have a hard understanding babies socially. She loves me and I love her. I've done a great deal on research on babies and I am confident that I can do a good job. It's only play time that I'm having a hard time with. Please help.

Update: thank you so much for your advice and what's worked for you. Thank you to ESPECIALLY those that gave me detailed responses. I love you all, truly. This means so much because no one prepares to become a parent. And it's especially hard when people care more about how cute the baby is than a parents mental health. Again, thank you.
