Attn: stay at home mommies.

Hey, so I just wanted some input from other mamas that stay home all/most of the time. My son is 3 1/2 months now, and I've cut back to only working fri/sat nights bartending since he was born. Well, don't get me wrong-I LOVE my son more than anything, but lately I've been a little depressed and listless....I think It's from just being cooped up in the apartment too much. So who else went through this? I'm assuming it's pretty common, but hey I guess I could be wrong, lol. Thoughts?

I went through it for 6 months. I dont know how I got over it, but I did one day. 

Not me, sorry, I love staying at home, I am only going back to work because I NEED to make a little money..........but I love being a SAHM.

I went through it. I'm really not sure how I got over it though...

I went through and still go through from time to time. Thank god it's about to be warmer out so that I can take my daughter out for walks and swims. We need to get out of this house bad!

I'm right there with ya!! Except I don't work at all, I feel your pain. I have cabin fever bad.

im going through that right now. sometimes i just want to scream cause im stuck in this house all day!! Dont get me wrong i love spending time with my daughter but sometimes i just need a break. right now i have no car and no job.  

I HATED being a stay at home mom.  

I got laid off so I'm spending every minute at my house with my SO and my daughter and I feel incredibly depressed.  I'm thinking about getting a job at mc donalds just to get out of here. 

SAHM isn't for every one, and I am one of those people who just can't stand it. 

i don't mind it but i just get lonely and bored by myself and two kids. (i take care of my nephew too.)

Im going through it right now. My husband told me that if i wanted to be a stay at home mom he was completley fine with it. Well she was born January 7th of this year and im going nuts lol. I have a five year old son too who is going to start school in August =[ Im not sure what to do because we only have one vehicle...I dont know anyone with kids my age who lives around me either so im kinda stuck =[

I never thought I'd say it, but thank goodness we have computers so we can be a little less isolated. It helps me to get on BG, then read blogs or whatever about things I'm into that don't have to do with babies; it helps me remember I'm still a person.

You get in a rut at first because you try to get a routine going,then you get depressed,then you say screw the routine and start joining Mommy groups so you can talk with humans again,lol.

It is so hard. I'm halfway thinking about getting a job! My son has been a terror lately, no matter what we do, and my daughter never sleeps. I'm starting to feel like my kids hate me! Not to mention the horrible boredom. Maybe I am just having a bad couple days, but I am ready to give up...But you are not alone!!!

I don't work but I go to school..and let me say..I never thought I'd like going to school..when my daughter was born, I had one night class one day a week..I LOVED that class.. LOL. I got to talk to grown ups other than my hubby. I am now getting a job to keep me busy or else I'll go shopping all day to get out of the house and that gets me in trouble.. =)

I dont mind it. But since I dont drive and there is only one car and my husband takes it to work (obviously) me and the babies can go a week or so without leaving the house. Thats why I find every reason to get out. To go get milk, to get crickets, to do this or that. Its depressing, extrememly depressing but I wanted to be a SAHM for a specific reason. But being in the house 24-7 wasnt one of them. I just need maybe an hour outside, or a walk around the block with my family is good for me.
