In the same boat. Try to change one thing a day. Do a craft with baby or an activity. Just something different. Maybe change the way you talk to hubby. Things will only change if you change them. But I know it's hard and easier said than done. But think of one small thing you can do differently in a day and then do something else the next day. Soon it'll be different. ❤️
I think the weather doesn’t help, stuck inside all day, won’t be long before we can go out on those nice spring walks to the park or just round the corner, getting out the house helps for me even going to see family members/friends for abit, even just a walk around a shopping centre so your not stuck inside all the time
@Claire we've got a dog so I spend at least an hour a day walking him. I got him exactly for the reason of being out and about helps. I currently don't drive and don't live anywhere with reliable public transport so going anywhere further than to the woods for the dog is a massive pain
i’m the same, i find it hard to play with my child as she doesn’t want me to play with her because she’s very independent and particular😂 so i spend my day just sat on my own waiting for partner to finish work, we’ll speak for 5/10 mins about his day and then he’s on his phone in silence for the rest of the night before he goes bed and i’m left cleaning the house and sorting washing. i think the worse part is going to bed knowing tomorrow will be the same😂
The monotony is a killer! I've just gotten some play cards with different ideas for different activities. I'm hoping that's going to help. I move round the house quite a lot during the day which helps. But it is still the same rooms so it only helps a little 😂
@Joanna kitchen for meal times, living room for playtime and chill time and by the end of the day I'm like "OMG I have more rooms upstairs" (we moved to a 2 bed house from a studio before Xmas and I'm still trying to get used to it) 😂
Same here!!!!! Always asking for basic house hole stuff to be done but always end up arguing over it. They don’t seem to actually understand what is mummas deal with
Does playing music in the house even help? Like playing songs while cleaning etc.
It's the little things we add to our days during the week that helps. - new recipe -bake a cake -make doughnuts - have ice cream with yum toppings - family game night - movie night and popcorn - make our own pizza - water gun fight in the backyard - bubble bath And the list goes on lol It's made all the difference doing these little things each week, it brings us happiness and strengthens our bond as a family. We even make good memories. There's something about baking and cooking new recipes that make us happy as a family. We get to enjoy it together.
@Lucy I have music or the radio on when cleaning, cooking and eating meals. It's a short lived hype really
I felt like this!! It's horrible. If you are planning on going to work or back to work I found this helped me personally xx
@🇬🇧 Stacey 🇬🇧 it's a matter of looking for a job. I was full time at uni when my little girl was born so didn't have a job
I feel you
