Answer

I'm a sahm also and it's hard af . I want ME time, alone time while using the bathroom and just time period but it's so hard. I have older kids but my youngest is 1 year old and doesn't like to be without me so no alone time anytime soon 🤷😣

Answer

Before my daughter started sleeping in her own room I use to sit on the loo for 20 mins in the evening while my husband looked after her.

Answer

I leave my son with my MIL and go out to eat with my mom/run errands that I need to do. My son isn’t attached to me so I’m basically alone all day, he plays with his toys. Then I tell him to come eat and he goes back to his business lol. I shower and I just leave our bathroom door open cause that’s when I close him in the bedroom with me. I have music playing on the tv and he’s fine

Answer

Workout. Run errands... not much lol

Answer

I tried using the playroom at the gym,  she did ok for two weeks but I think another kid might have bopped her on the head,  now sure screams and almost throws up if I try to leave her there.  Anyway,  I recommend it if you have an easy going kid.  You can work out while they play. Even working out feels like a break these days.

Answer

Most Saturdays, I have the luxury of a grandma wanting a baby. That's the only day, if I get a break. It's not even a break because I have an unlimited amount of chores and errands to run.

Answer

usually my parents or my in laws keep our kiddos once a month, sometimes for a few hours sometimes overnight. i’m so thankful for that. it’s hard to leave, but necessary to have time away as well. apart from that, my husband will go out alone on occasion and i’ll go out alone on occasion so we can both have breaks without needing a sitter.

Answer

My 2.5 year old is attached to me. I went out 1 time since having her and my mom told me she was constantly asking for boob and just looking for me😩
