In our house DH does the night time routine, so I start to get a break around 7, which helps a lot. But, when I'm starting to get super stir crazy, DH insists that I do something by myself (go shopping, get lunch with friends, just anything that gets me out of the house with no babies). </p> <p>Even though you are still BF, you must get more than two hour break, so couldn't you go get a message, haircut, shopping trip, go to Starbucks to read a little? I think it is super important to get away, it has helped me so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-find-balance-as-a-mom#post-1068856 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 20:28:07 +0000 autumn865 1068856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a SAHM for a 1 year old little girl. I love her and love being home with her but have been feeling more and more "stuck." DH has plenty of hobbies (band practice once a week, soccer game one night a week) which I support because those are things he enjoys but I feel like I don't have anything for myself. DD is still EBF which limits my nights out (I've never been able to pump). </p> <p>What do you do for yourself? How do you make time? If you BF how do you get time away? </p>
