My 2 year old DD stays with me during the day and we are hardly home. I run all the errands, take the kids (2 and 10) to appointments and various activities. I usually workout at home during the days that I don't have much to do. I don't have a set nap time for her because we leave out at different times during the day, so I workout when she is awake. She has gotten used to me taking this time to workout and doesn't distract me as much. She used to try to pass me her snacks :laugh: Sometimes I am able to squeeze in a brisk walk at the park, which both kids love.0

I belong to a gym that has babysitting. I used to take them with me. I was able to work out and they met friends.
This is what I do. Perhaps a gym near you has the same option.0 -

I am a stay-at-home mom to my two daughters, but I am also working on my degree. I share the same problem: it is so difficult to find a time to exercise when I won't get interrupted, which in turn puts a hamper on my motivation, and so it goes.0

27yo SAHM to 2 girls, 5 and 18mos (almost 19mos). They're actually really good about hanging out with me while I get my workout done, sometimes they try to follow along, other times they play together nicely. I'll admit there's a few times I have to pause my dvd to go get the littlest one out of something. haha! It's definitely interesting, but I demand this time for myself. I deserve it, and I deserve to do something to make me feel better about myself. Anyone who wants can feel free to add me! I love making new friends!0

I stay home. I'm 27 and my kids are 6 and 3. My 6 year old is in kindergarten this year. She will be finished up in 2 weeks. I go nuts at times. I miss the adult interaction.0

I'm a SAHM at the moment.. my monsters are a 9 yr old little girl she hits double digits this year and a soon to be 3 year old rambunctious little boy who i swear thinks he is super man.. jumps and flys off everything. I believe he is giving me gray hairs already... Little boy has NO fear. Just like his father.0

I, too, am a SAHM. I have 4 girls (8.5, 7, 4.5 and 2.5) I am also a part time student and have a husband who works a weird shift. I have a hard time fitting in workouts, but I have decided I just need to get up in the morning before the kids so I can get it in. It's hard but it has to be done. My older ones will work out with me, but the 2.5 year old likes to get into trouble when Mommy's busy.
If anyone wants to friend me for support, I'd love it. I'm new to MFP and I have NO friends.0 -
I am a WAHM of 4 kiddos ages 12, 8, 6 and 4. Life is BUSY! Feel free to add me!0

Stay at home mom... that would be this girl lol ... I have a 16, 11, 2 and 7 month old.
Working out is hard... between everything else I have to do daily... Its reallllllllly hard! My goal is to wake up every day at 5am to exercise, that way I have the house to myself. But that rarely happens. lol I'm usually doing my workouts when the babies take a nap. Which sucks, because its my only 2 hours a day to get my cleaning done, or actually do something I want to do! But .... either way, I'm on a mission to get it done, because I have to take care of me... just like everyone else.
Good luck!! We can support eachother! I will send you a friend invite0 -
Stay at home dad. Ha, we do exist. Take that bigfoot.
3 girls - 10, 7, 7. It's lonely during football season.0 -
I'm a proud SAHM as well. I also work from home--usually late into the evening/early morning. So basically I get no sleep, lol! My girls are 2, 4, 7 and 11. It's just as hard to find time with the older kids around as with the younger ones. The littles like to join me, the bigs like to fight and need help with homework and stuff. It's tough but doable.
Oh, and for the dad, my 11 yr old loves football--likes to watch it, play it and talk about players and strategies. In fact, her last two birthday parties were sports-based and one was all the girls playing flag football. They all loved it! We just finished up football season with her and my 4 yr old.0 -
