Answer 2

Wake up at 7:00 am Take care of my son; get him dressed for the day.

8:00 Make my husband and son  breakfast; clean up; take care of my son

9:00 do laundry while watching my son;

10:00 most likely taking care of my son or cleaning up after him

11:00-1:00 Make lunch for my husband and son; take care of bills; Clean up; make sure that all preparations are in order.

1:00-10:00 Take care of my son plus everything that he does or needs

10:00 put him to bed and see my husband when he comes home

11:00 hang out with my husband for a while and then get some rest

Usually at about 1 am or 2 am my son wakes up so I give him a sippi and get back to bed.

Then I start it all over again. Does it sound fun to you? Now do you know why us wives gripe so much?

Answer 3

That depends on the age of the children.  I am home right now with a 10 month old, and I wake up at 6 am with her, feed her, then have breakfast then we play for approx. 2 hours.  Then she is back to bed (and so am I - after tidying up the kitchen and putting all her toys away).

We wake up at 11:00, then she has lunch, then we go for a walk, then it's more play time.  Then she has a drink and then it's back down for another nap.  While she is napping, I shower, do any necessary chores, do laundry, start planning dinner.  She's up at 4:00, we have more play time, then she eats dinner at 5:00, then I start my dinner (Hubby works late) then she has a bath, then it's story time, I nurse her one last time and then she's in bed (at 7:30).  Then I eat my dinner, clean the kitchen, tidy up the living room again, then hubby is home and we have a couple of hours together (for TV, email catchup, etc), then I'm off to bed so I can start all over again!

Answer 4

It depends on if she has kids or not.  If she does have kids it depends on the how many kids and their ages. Basically it all depends on the demands and needs of each individual  household.

Answer 9

I am a stay-at-home mom to two children.  My oldest is 22 months and my youngest just turned 3 months.  I USE to have a wonderful schedule that included cleaning AND having dinner ready when my husband came home from work.  Nowadays I am lucky to even get a shower in the morning.  My new son is a handful.  My older daughter is easy, thank God. But my new baby boy is like having twins...I cannot get anything done when he is up.  My old routine consisted of getting my daughter up and dressed at 8 am.  Then, depending upon the day, I would get some cleaning done while my daughter played independently.  Tuesdays and Thursdays were laundry day.  Monday I cleaned the bathrooms.  Wednesday was for cleaning the kitchen...well, you get the gist.  Now I just do what I can and my husband fills in.  Anyhow, sorry about my rambling...now I have to go get my baby boy up and feed him...sigh.
