SAHM- are you tired all the time?

Question

I feel like my tiredness comes from never getting a good break. I have a break after my baby goes to sleep but doing the same thing day in and day out is wearing on me.
Sometimes I wish i had a part time job just to have a break from being a mom- even if being a mom is an amazing job (4 me personally)

Answer

Who ever said rarely- share with me your secrets.

Answer

I loved working part time bc I could still feel like I was contributing financially, I could get out of the house and be social with adults and it broke up the routine. It was better for my child and us financially for me to stay home full time bc of daycares so expensive but yea...
It’s hard being a full time mommy every day from wake up to bedtime. I can honestly say it’s harder mentally and physically for me to NOT work and be a SAHM. Some days I put a bra on and some mascara just to make myself feel better 💁🏼‍♀️

Answer

I think I’ve been way more tired since the quarantine started.  I felt like I had a lot more energy when we were getting out of the house and doing things, all the staying home seems to just make me want to sleep.  Although I also found out I was pregnant the day before the stay-at-home orders went into effect so that could be contributing too, but I really think it has more to do with not going anywhere. When it’s nice out and we go hiking or to a playground I feel energized again, but unfortunately it’s going to be 95 here for the next week so it looks like we’ll be laying low again for a while ☹️

Answer

No. I sleep like 9 hours every night. I get drowsy at like 3, but that’s normal. This is way last exhausting than teaching 30 fifth graders all day. I have time to workout, read, cook healthy dinners, relax on my patio. It’s great!
