Stay at home mom schedule?

Question

For those of you with only 1 baby (or when you had 1 baby) and are stay at home moms, what do you do all day? What do you do to get out of the house? Do you follow a schedule? Today I have felt unproductive and bored but also got nothing done. I need to be motivated and have mom goals! What are yours?

Answer

We wake up between 5-6:30 for a feed and I also eat breakfast at this time. Then we sleep until maybe 8:30-9:00. At this time I feed, change, and dress baby. Then he “plays” in his glider while I make the bed and do a few other small chores. From 9:30-11:30 we usually play and ten feed again and he goes down for nap #1. During this nap, I shower and dress myself and then eat lunch (made the night before). We usually have an outing every day starting around 12:30-1:00 and we come home around 3:00. He usually naps from 3-4 and then my husband is home by 4:30. We both play with him for a little, I make dinner. The rest of the night he is either playing or napping and he is down for the night at 9:30-10:00!!!
Breaking up my day with an outing makes it so I am never bored. 😊

Answer

Honest to God, I only manage to stay on top of personal hygiene, household chores and errands. FTM and stay at home. But I'm hoping it gets easier and I have "bored" days so I can start doing more outside the house! For now I'm busy trying to keep my little human content.

Answer

I had something to do every week day. Weekends were kept open for family things with my husband or lazy days. I had an errands day, library story times, MyGym (when she turned 8 months we started that), storytime at Barnes and Noble, playdates, park/playground, and pool days. As she's gotten older we do an open gymnastics place as well!

I joined a MOPS group and it changed my life! I've made lots of mom friends! 
You might be bored now but it wont last long. Soon you'll be chasing your little one around all day!

Answer

I plan something for everyday of the week except weekends and I ALWAYS give myself one day of nothing so I can recover and rest. I even look at the weather for the week 😝 I was way to bored in the beginning

Answer

#1 don't stress. If you want a schedule I'd look at Pinterest for examples. But there is such thing as "zero plans parenting". It's really what works best for you :)

Answer

Join a group like Le Leche Legue or even check meetup.com. When I was on maternity leave I found something to do everyday, even if it just getting coffee with other moms, it really helps to maintain sanity.
