With all the things in a day that us stay at home mom’s have to do clean staying fit kids school projects and being a good wife with all these things in a day it can be stressfull and very frustrating. I’m here to try and help I deal with alot in a day and for me to stay calm and staying positive is a must. Here’s some tips take breaks during the day and know that you don’t have to do everything like when it comes to laundry you dont have to fold and hang up everything or put all the socks with the matching pairs there’s little things that can make your days easier so there’s not as much. It might be easier for you if you clean the night before so there’s not as much to do the next day.make a list of what’s really important and just do those things it’s ok if you don’t get everything done in one day. My husband has always told me it’s ok if you take a day to yourself and not clean I can and that he will help but if you don’t have that help it’s ok you can still take a day to relax and know that it’s ok and your not a bad mom if the house is a little messy.stay positive and know that your a good mom and that us stay at home mom’s can take a break and it’s ok. Be you be positive and never give up. Even when you get frustrated at there the end of the day it’s worth it to see your kids and family happy. So never doubt yourself and know that you got this. My life has been very hard lately as my youngest daughter recently passed away from sids and it gets harder to go on in every day life but I’m not giving up I gotta keep going for my three other kids I know things get difficult but please never give up family is very important and for us single mom’s it’s our Life to make our kids happy. More ways to make it more simple is to not be afraid to ask for help and to maybe put some things aside and giving yourself some you time I know it seems impossible but it will help also try having some time away with your husband just to get away and reset will help alot with everything ready your mind maybe make a list of things to do in a day and make a schedule that you can do every day that way you can just get it done and be able to relax.

    • Being a stay at home mom is one of the most burdened job.No declared holidays and no fixed working hours.

      Even now I'm a stay at home mom but still work online for at least 3 hours a day. Managing things becomes difficult most of the times. There are days when I want to leave everything and just run away.

      I cannot survive without my family neither can I survive without my work. So, maintaining a balance is always a big requirement.

      But Yes of course for me breaks in both these works is very important. I will not be able to survive without them . It is my ME time that I need to avail at least once a week if you want me to be active and perform well all through the week.

    • Actually, when you are a stay at home mom, the style of doing things in a systematic way is up to you since you have the whole day to do them all.

      Give priorities to the urgent chores.

      Like for example if you have a baby, you do the cleaning and cooking when she's sleeping as we all know babies always just sleeps.

      As to doing the laundry, I think it should not be everyday, but maybe every other day, specially if you have a washing machine which can make it easier for you.

      Perhaps you won't need to iron those washed clothes that are just for the house.

      Also, cooking can be done for lunch. Do it in volume, wherein you can just reheat the other half for the night, because anyway, it will just be you and your hubby who will be eating, since the baby have her milk.

      As to taking a break, of course you can at anytime of the day you feel like doing it.

      Maybe at night when the husband is already home, he can help by taking care of the baby while you wash the dishes after dinner.

      Just be systematic and know which are the priorities.

    • Stay-at-home Moms need not burden themselves with too much works/chores at home. She can divide/manage the works for each day, and never be stressed when a specific task has not been done. There are still days ahead to accomplish everything. Just manage time, and have time for yourself.

    • This is a good article. There is nothing to be upset for a stay at home mom. You also have a good husband. Apart from the household stuffs what are you taking care you can also work online that will not only give you some financial benefit but also you will get relief from monotonous days. And definitely take off from regular staff. Sometimes you can go out with families as well.

    • stya at homemoms has to take break, its a right, that no onw can take away from you, or you will not bae able to work or help or live healthy even, all moms do double the work and no body appreciated so they should force their respect and appreciations also
