I am a stay at home mom, tired all the time how can i devout more time to hubby?

Answer 1

Definately exercise. You'll have energy!

Have date nights with hubby or lock the door to your bedroom, thats what we do.

Answer 2

Well, take some time, just 10/15 mins. or more if you can, for yourself. Whether it is when the kids are asleep or at school, or even if you get the neighbopr (if you trust them) to come and sit with them while yo utake a little walk or do s/thing alone to refresh yourself. Then you won't be so tired when hubby gets home at night. Also, you could ask him to maybe help you cook (they say that couples that cook together are happier) once in awhile, or read a bedtime story to the kids with you, etc.

Also, dpending on how old your kids are, have you thought of putting them in daycare just once or twice a week or maybe just a half day? It would be a good break for you, and good socialization for them for when they start real school, if they haven't already!

Also, try to plan your day the night before. Make plans to sit down and spend time with your husband right along with making plans to do the laundry and clean the bathroom! I know it's not very romantice, but at least if that time is planned you will know what you have to do do get everything done for the day!

Good Luck, and try to get some rest.

Answer 3

If you have young ones it takes dedication. Make a date night even if no sitter.
Get kids ready for bed early and let them be in pj's an hour before sleep. Can you toss them all in bath same time? Or do assembly line one getting dressed while next one' water running.

Hubby picks up dinner/take out on date night.
If you can get out of the "SAM uniform" and into something less comfortable LOL do, open wine, light candles and you will find you will remember quickly where those kids came from!

Also just something I noticied make sure you get plenty of water and if too chaotic sometimes to eat/well balanced take a daily vitamin. Good Luck rekindling that fire!

Answer 4

Good nutrition and exercise give more energy than they use. Believe it, you can feel tired before exercising and energized after exercising. Eat healthy balanced foods and take at minimum a multiple vitamin and mineral tablet. Many of the health clubs have day and nursery care to allow you to have the time to workout uninterrupted. Then, at least once a week hire a babysitter so you and your husband can enjoy each other without benefit of children. You, your husband, and your children will all be happier and healthier!

Answer 5

life is hard with kids to juggle and everything else that comes with family life. Ask your hubby one/two nights a week to "take over" the kids about an hour before their bedtime. Go soak in the tub, get totally relaxed. Let him put them to bed, and then, put you to bed.... have fun!

Answer 6

It is important for you to maintain a happy relationship with your husband- without having the kids around!

I think hiring a baby-sitter or asking a relative to watch over them occasionally is necessary for you both..."Couple time" must be made if you want your relationship to continue working! Good luck!

Answer 7

Start taking your child to daycare a couple of times
a week for a couple of hours. That way you can have time for yourself and rest. Take that time to set something up for your hubby one evening and show him a great time!

Enjoy!

Answer 8

read the book "Lube Jobs" (available at Barnes and Noble). It saved my marriage. It really teaches you the importance of focusing more on your husband and how "quickies" really can bring you closer together in all aspects of your marriage.

Answer 9

See your doctor. Tired is often from anemia in women your age. You could be amazed what iron pills do.

Answer 10

Exercise. It seriously will make you feel better and have more energy. Also, if possible, take afternoon naps so you can be refreshed when he gets home.
