What do I do???

Question

I am a stay at home wife due to chronic pain and illness. I will be having a baby in September that'll definitely change things... but I am so lonely some days. I can't be up and cleaning all day because I have to stop and rest, especially now that I'm pregnant. Any ideas to help pass the time? I don't like watching movies and tv...

Answer

I'm in a similar situation currently, normally I would be working, but I'm off due to back pain (car accident years ago, 34 weeks pregnant and pregnancy made the backpain worse). I find it extremely difficult to be home and not able to do anything. Netflix is only entertaining for so long!

What works for me is couponing & im taking an online course.

Answer

Take breastfeeding, prenatal or birth prep classes. It really creates social opportunities. Once baby is here do library story times, find a mom group. If you have family close set up lunch or play dates. I'm stay at home as well and try to just plan activities, even a 1 hour activity makes the whole day feel better
