Stay-at-home-mom Blues?

Question

any one else getting the blues from being a SAHM? any tips from the experienced SAHMs?

Answer

I'm bored on a daily basis, but in the last week I have decided to do something to make myself feel better. We're working on our house and I really want to redecorate, but hello tight budget. However, I've come up with a few things to make me feel better about myself and keep my mind and body busy. I'm starting a mommy blog (to eventually earn some good income with), I have a YouTube channel that I post daily vlogs to (I've made some sweet mommy friends and it's fun to learn about videos and editing), I'm starting to sell things on eBay for extra money. I go to Goodwill and hunt down some awesome deals for cheap and make a profit on ebay! It's fun to hunt down the deals and it gives me some extra money coming in (I literally just started doing this last week), and I think I'm going to start an etsy shop! I have several ideas on things to make and sell! We don't NEED the money, but it would be nice to have a cushion and I'll be my own boss, get some creativity out and it's something I can set my own hours to so I'm not missing out on time with my daughter and still feel useful!

Once every other day or so my husband hangs out with the baby while I run a quick errand and it has made huge leaps for my sanity!

I get bored but I try to stay busy, we go to the pool and the library, shopping etc. I started reading more and I love that. I have been looking for groups and more mom friends because I don't have many.

Answer

I've stayed at home with my son for 5 months now he starts daycare in a week. And I think we'll both benefit from being out of the house. I'm going back to school and I just get so bored at the house all day every day. I feel like my son will do great at daycare, I'll miss him but I don't think I can sit around this house anymore.

Answer

I go to the gym at least three times a week. Gives me time to defuse the stress and work on me at the same time. Win win👍🏻

Answer

Only way I get through the months of staying home alone with the kids is keeping busy. I have projects upon projects that I tend to. I would love to get out and do something but with $300 dollars a month going towards medical bills, husband went from 120 to 40 hours a week, and now the added cost of my car repair. I'm pretty much stuck for the rest of the year if not two years.
