Calling all stay at home Mummies! - Page 2

Wow, there are alot of us!!

So, what do you do all day? Are you like me and wonder where the day has gone or does the time drag?

I really need to get my butt in gear and get down to my local mum and baby group, but the weather has been so lousy I havent gone yet!
My mum lives only 15 minutes walk away so we are there alot and if we are at home, I try and spend as much time as I can entertaining Caidan, although at 8 months I find he entertains me more and more!!

I find the day goes quickly, she does two hours awake, one asleep, so i spend alot of time entertaining- at the moment she's all about sitting up surrounded by pillows, so i am spending alot of time on the floor keeping her attention so she doesnt topple! lol. When she is asleep i either chill and eat lunch, or am doing housework, during the last one before OH comes home from work i prepare dinner. Does anyone find themselves still taking millions of photos!??? When my OH comes back from work i show him the tonnes of photos and videos i have done that day of her, lol!!!
I love being a stay at home mum, its all i have ever wanted to do

Hi Im a SAHM! My name is Karla, Im 26 and have our little precious bundle Annabelle she is our first (of many I hope!) I used to be in financial recruitment but decided before I had Annie that I want to be at home with her, she is too gorgous to leave all day! I have been with Matt for 9 years we are heading off to SA to get married next week! (getting married on the 20th of March, leave for SA next Wed) I love baking, reading, my darling daughter and of course BNB!!!

Hi I'm also a SAHM!

I knew long before I got pg that I wanted to be a SAHM as my mum was at home with me but couldn't afford to be a SAHM with my (much) younger brother and I think I got the better deal!

Hubby and I delayed having a baby so we were in a financial situation to be able to afford to stay at home, but to do so he took a job which means he works abroad for a month and comes home for a month.

My Lo is 5 months and I'm starting to look into things to do with her to keep her amused! What do you all do?

Like Scally, I find the days fly past usually!

I find some days drag but others fly by, I really need to start going out to some groups, does anyone do baby signing or rhyme time?

Scally · Feb 24th, 2010, 14:06 PM

I have been to rhyme time at my library, and it was fantastic! Izzy just sat there watching everyone, then sort of screeching along to the singing! I havent been for a couple of weeks though because of the weather, but i highly recommend it. I find baby signing fascinating, but i dont think there are any in my area, would love to hear peoples experiences
