I need to get out for a little bit almost daily, whether it's to the grocery store or just out for a walk. I went for a week and a half after my c-section and I was dying to get out that I made my hubby drive me and DD to Kohl's just so I could walk around! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20200 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 10:51:41 +0000 mynoahbear 20200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The longest has probably been a week and a half without leaving the house but I could have gone longer. I had to go out because I had an appointment but if it wasn't for that I would have gladly continued staying inside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20167 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 10:24:49 +0000 MsMamaBear 20167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 weeks, after Baby Bear was born. I did go in the backyard and thankfully it was September, so I didn't go crazy. I couldn't imagine giving birth in Jan,Feb or March. Those months are SO depressing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20160 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 10:10:23 +0000 Rubies 20160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The longest I've gone without leaving the house was 2 weeks and that was immediately after giving birth. I just couldn't get myself put together enough to think about stepping out.</p> <p>But now, after 2-3 days I start to go nuts so I need to get out...Even if it means just walking to the end of the street to get the mail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20127 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 09:37:19 +0000 lavender 20127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am definately a homebody, but I think 2 days is the max for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20125 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 09:36:49 +0000 heffalump 20125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My migraines have kept me in the dark house for over a week. I always love that first walk outside in the sunlight again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20124 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 09:36:30 +0000 themcmom 20124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, I think I can go a long time, but during my 3 month maternity leave, my husband noticed I'd get depressed if I didn't go out 2 days in a row. The problem is that there's no sidewalks at our house, so I can't really take Wombat for a walk near the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20117 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 09:29:13 +0000 MH.Abroad 20117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can go a very long time... since I've been sick this week, I haven't left the house. Going on nine days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20092 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 08:53:26 +0000 Mrs. Marbles 20092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to leave the house at least once a day... even for just a quick walk or I get stir-crazy. Mr. Marbles is a homebody and doesn't mind being at home for long periods of time! Though when I was sitting the month, I didn't leave the house for up to 4-5 days unless it was to take LM to the doctor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20081 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 08:38:11 +0000 Andrea 20081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weeks! Wha? @mrbee: you are a serious homebody! I can go a day without noticing but there is always something I have to leave the house for after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20033 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 02:41:17 +0000 tejbee 20033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>5 minutes? haha Okay, that's obviously an exaggeration, but I do get pretty antsy just staying at the house sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20022 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 02:26:05 +0000 Boogs 20022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The longest I've gone was maybe a couple of weeks after the baby was first born? I'm a homebody and really like being at home, but I must say there are some rough days in the SAHM life, and I make it a point to escape those days for my own sanity and the outings usually put the baby in better spirits, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-20011 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 02:10:50 +0000 looch 20011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the longest I could go, and have gone, is 3 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-19906 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:20:36 +0000 Mrs. D 19906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I wasn't working, I easily went a week at a time without leaving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-19904 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:19:55 +0000 cyndistar3 19904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do not like staying home ALL the time but it happens... I have stayed home for over a month before. But now I usually leave the house a few times a week but its usually on weekends and tuesdays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-19903 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:18:44 +0000 Rosie Girl 19903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could go a long time! It does get lonely, and I like to go out after about a week at home. Being a SAHM was a big adjustment for me though, but now that I am, I find excuses not to leave every day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-19897 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:15:15 +0000 junebugmama 19897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I own a business that is based out of my home. I would probably never leave, but since I have to meet clients, that's not possible. Plus my hubby is a busy body. I would say I've probably gone Monday thru Friday without leaving a ton of times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-you-can-go-without-leaving-the-house#post-19864 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 22:47:49 +0000 mrbee 19864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can actually go for weeks and weeks and possibly even more. But I think Mrs. Bee gets sad when she can't leave the house regularly. It's hard though, because between the kids, Hellobee and pumping, she has an invisible tether tying her to the house these days!</p> <p>What's the longest you can go without leaving the house? Also: what's the longest you actually have gone without leaving the house?? </p>
