How do you SAHMs do it?!?

Question

How do ya’ll manage to cook, clean, maintain a clean house, run errands, and look after the kids at the same time?!
I tried to deep clean the house tonight with my boyfriend being present and it took me 3x longer, and didn’t even get half of the work done 😪😮‍💨
When I do this while he’s at work, it takes me less time and everything gets done so easily. AND WE DONT EVEN HAVE KIDS!!! I am so exhausted because all these hours I spent cleaning, not even half of it is done, and the kitchen is a mess again. I don’t know how ya’ll do it, but f*ck am I beat. 🫠☠️

Answer

A hell of a lot easier then moms who work full time and then have 2 hours at night to do everything.

Answer

I don’t. I just do what I can and husband helps w the rest

Answer

Why doesn’t he help if y’all don’t have kids??

Answer

I have a 6 and 2 year old and I’m NOT doing it all and I’m NOT ok…😂 I don’t even know what’s happening anymore

Answer

SAHM of 3, soon to be 4 here. Although my oldest two are in school most of the day. It’s definitely mentally exhausting on a different level.

Answer

I find it easier if you keep on top of it, get the kids to do there bedroom 5&3 so I "help" and tbh most of it is done while they're asleep ready for the next day.

Answer

I was a stay at home mom up until my kids got into middle school . I have three kids they are 14, 16, 18 years old now. But it’s a full time job that people think isn’t . But between kids, cleaning the house, dinner, errands, paying bills, spending quality husband time etc. it’s tiring for sure.

Answer

If it’s just you and him your house shouldn’t be getting so messy where you can’t keep up with it. Put things away right after using them to minimize work later. Pick up after yourself and don’t hold on to clutter. 
I’m a stay at home mom currently (kids are both in school) I don’t clean the whole house in one day but overall it’s always “well kept”. What I find to be helpful is to not have sooo much stuff, I purge regularly. I go through the closets and cabinets and throw away/donate things we don’t use or need anymore. Less stuff = less cleaning and a tidier home. I don’t buy knickknacks etc I like clean counters/shelves

Answer

I don’t do it all. My husband comes home and does whatever needs to be done. Deep cleaning, groceries, errands, etc arent just my responsibility because I’m at home. He’s just as capable of doing that kind of stuff.

Answer

Have a little one and it is hard but you make it work 
Everyday either wash or fold clothing 
Vacuum daily 
10 min intervals 
Have laundry baskets handy 
Wipe always 
Make extra food for next day or freeze 
Everything else like cupboards can wait for when you have time which is hardly lolll 
Give yourself a break 😇
