daily routines
this one is mainly again for stay at home mums...what is each day like for you??how do you do things? when does the housework get done?do you have playtimes and worktimes?im new to all this and finding it a struggle and if you read my last post youll know why...id appreciate hearing about anyone elses routines. have a 3 year old who isnt at nursery til january and am 3 months preg too... she doesnt have a nap in the day anymore so its constant.she is also very clingy, wouldnt ever just go and play with her toys without me so its a struggle to get thigns done.
and another thing id like to hear about...does anyone feel they get thought badly of because they choose to stay at home....do your working friends with children seem to think you are just lazy and cant be bothered ...stuff like that.?i have a degree (from 4 years ago) which didnt really get me a good job, but i have always worked up until now, and people keep saying "why are you just at home when you have a degree?"do they think i just cant get a job?i am doing this to bring up my child, this is my choice...ahhh!!! (another rant sorry!)
