I shower every day..but I have let myself go a bit. I used to always have my hair done, eyebrows etc. Now I just dont have the timeSTAY AT HOME MOMS... have you let yourself go.. hair makeup sweats etc....?
Yes, but I think it has to do with the fact that I am pregnant with the second and am still having morning sickness. My hubby also works a lot. I think that I might invest in some cute, kinda sexy pajamas that are very comfortable because that is all that my husband sees me in right now. That way I won't feel bad if I don't get dressed that day. I think that once the weather warms up and I am not sick I will start looking better. You should try forming some mommy play groups with neighbors this will give you some time to relax with other moms. I think you will get very depressed if you don't get out and get dressed and feel good!
No I have not let myself go! I take a shower before my daughter and I go out everyday and put on a little make-up at least and do my hair if I have time. I also go to the gym at least twice a week. My husband works 16 hour days sometimes up to 5 days a week so im alone a lot. Its no excuse to skip a shower for days!!!!!! I promised myself that I would still make time for myself even if it was only a 10 minute shower while my daughter is napping.............you should too. It only gets harder to fit time in for yourself as they get older and more demanding!





EDIT: As far as sweats go, I have cute like sweat pants outfits with matching jacket that I wear out, but I don't wear my PJ pants and a nasty old t-shirt out!
I bathe every day, or every second day. It depends on how my day goes. I don't wear makeup, I never did so that is not something I have let go. I have my hair up in a ponytail most days. I do wear sweats, but that is because they are comfortable for me. My husband appreciates me for me, not how I look around him. However, I would dress up if we were going out somewhere.
Usually while I'm home I wear pajamas or something comfortable. I clean a lot during the day, so I usually take like 2 showers a day. I don't understand how you go a day or so without taking a shower. Even if you're in there 5 minutes, at least you're staying on top of your hygiene. I don't usually wear makeup unless I'm going somewhere, anyway.
I showered everyday, but I did wore sweats more often after giving birth. It's comfortable and the last thing a new mother need is an uncomfortable pair of bottoms.


As far as make up, I don't wear any, but I did have some days that I will just wash and wear my hair, no time for blow drying or what not.


Don't worry, once your baby becomes mobile, you will find yourself adjusted to the routine and have some time to take care of yourself. Oh and running after a toddler is a good workout too.
Yes, I have. I know it does sound gross, but when your kids are really young, getting a shower every day is just pure luck. LOL.


I'm starting to wear make-up again when I go out. I don't care if we're just going out somewhere with my husband and I'm not even getting out of the car. I just need to distinguish between ';always inside mom'; to ';hey world I'm outside!';





Is this your first child? It gets better and sometimes crazier. Especially if your kids are about 2 years apart. But I wouldn't change their age difference for anything.
I have three kids. I shower when the older two go to bed and then my hubby can watch the baby who is three months old. I usually am awake before they are so that is when I do my hair. I've never been much of a make up person so I don't do it unless it's a special occassion like a family wedding or gong on a date with my hubby. Most days I wear comfy pants but if I am going out I'll put clothes on. I still like to look nice for my hubby though!
Well, I am not a stay at home Mom because I don't have kids (yet ... I'm pregnant, though!), but I do work from home. I never wear makeup anyway, but I kind of lounge around in my most comfy clothes (sweats are rarely a good choice in the Caribbean where I live). Sometimes I don't comb my hair much and I keep it pinned up alot (or it gets in the way). When he's home I let it down because he likes it like that. I do bathe every day, though. I don't think he'd let me sleep beside him if I didn't.





At least make a little bit of an effort. Bathe. Comb your hair. Put on lip gloss when you know he's almost home. All that combined could take 15 or 20 minutes and you may feel better about yourself. But I don't have a 5-month old.
I did at first. Now my daughter is 10 months old and I'm starting to take a little better care of myself. I'm still not wearing makeup but I just got my eyebrows done and I am so excited to get a facial this weekend. I'm starting to wear my hair down which is a vast improvement from my sloppy bun. Our husbands love us because of who we are. After the miracle of childbirth my husband has never thought I was more beautiful despite my stretch marks and sloppy clothes. The one thing I have kept up is showering but only because I take a shower with my baby and husbands help.
I try my best but some days I just don't feel like it. Hubby works nights so I do ALL the night stuff. Because he works nights and sleeps during the day I can only have a bath/shower of a night time so can't do my hair or anything because it'd wake up baby. I Think he's used to it now anyway.





I still try and put makeup on when I go out though, let my son play on his mat or in his jumperoo for 5 minutes.
I wear comfy clothes like sweats and rarely do my makeup. My husband doesn't mind. I would rather wear the comfy clothes all day and not look fashionable than wear something nice for my son to get ketchup all over. I have found that if I take the time to fix my hair then I look okay even if I'm wearing sweats.
well, i still have 3/4 of my baby weight(6months later), i also shower every2 days, i try to get dressed %26amp; baby dressed, even if we don't go out(which we try to do everyday, but its so wintery here in europe)!! but by about 5, it's contacts out, glasses on and tracksuit on!! :) i don't really were make up so that's cool!! :) funny how you change, b4 baby, i spent lots of time preening myself, :)
i dress the same, my hair is always done and i shower everyday. If my little girl isn't asleep when i take a shower i put her in her rocker and take it to the bathroom with me, she just loves seeing mummy and daddy take a shower. But it will be winter in a few months so i won't be doing that then. And i've never worn make-up.
Well I'm a single mom and I work a part time job (I live with my mom) but I don't wear make up when i am home during the day taking care of my son.


Usually I work out every day for at least a half an hour, I shower everyday, and I almost always wear makeup when I go out.
I was fully prepared to let myself go- even bought 7 pairs of pajamas so i could just relax but to my surprise no. I shower every morning. Dry and straighten my hair. And get dressed in clothes. Even if im not leaving the house. I just do it as part of my sons routine so its now easy and just part of the day. What a waste of pajamas! lol
god yea i am the same, i was as a one who would never leave the room until i had my make up done and my hair done as well always looks after my nails the whole girlie thing, its all gone now since i had my baby well he is 14 months now so im not finding it as hard to do myself up but im only coming back to it now. my boyfriend didn't no what was happening with me with no face on i say he taught he had another women in the house lol.
I need to do my hair and make up in the morning.. I can't stand not getting ready. I would probably go insane, because I get the feeling of laziness when I do nothing with my face/hair. But, I do wear sweats and a shirt that is way too big for me around my hubby.. he doesn't mind it (so he says LOL)
I did for awhile but then I couldn't stand it anymore,I have a 3 1/2 yr old and a 1 yr and I shower everyday and normally wear jeans and a t-shirt no makeup but I do blow dry my hair and straighten it.I don't get overly dresses up but I am presentable!!! lol
Yeah, definitly. I used to be someone who showered every day, and now it's every other. She's 4.5 months, and up until she was like 12 weeks, I also like you would skip two in a row too. She was very colicky, and I'm a single mom, so I didn't really have time to shower.
I take a shower daily, brush my teeth and wash my face.





I don't wear make up, I don't even blow dry my hair. Not enough time in the day. I don't wear sweats though, its not my style. I do wear t-shirt and jeans most days though.
Haha yeah. I wear my pj' all day unless I have running around to do that day, only wear make up when were going out to a bar or something, and there have even been some days when I don't even brush my hair. Today is one of those days! lol
Yes Yes Yes!! Im Not the Only One! We All Do Itr Im Sure..


Who On Earth has Time When They Are A Stay At Home Mom? Esp With A baby!!





My Daughter Is 6Months.. I Lounge around In My Pj's All Day Some Times.. hair A Mess.. never Go Out With Make Up On Unless For A Night out!

At least you have an excuse to stay home. I have let myself go, but I have to get up for work. Look like crap everyday because I'm too tired to primp my hair.
