Always make a point to look good..

Most of my friends are working class. Recently really envy their lifestyle and freedom to do whatever they like. Just like really focusing on work or hanging out and chilling out during their freetime. Now I have change my focus altogether. Have seen quite some full-time mums like me and I realised that the longer u stayed at home with your children, the more you tend to forget yourself and only think of how to give your child the best. Then you stop shopping, stop dressing up and basically become an auntie in the making. How unglamarous!!! The more I see, the more worried I became. With myself into the second trimester of pregnancy and my belly ballooning, I am worried that I would be like an auntie too. So I make it a point to keep reminding myself to try to look good and fresh no matter what. To me that's the very basic to self confidence.

Being a full time stay at home mum

2 months into being a sahm (stay at home mother)....if u were to ask me how do I feel...
Hmm... a mixture of feelings.

Let me first begin with the positive ones.
Happy to be part of his daily life. Satisfaction with seeing him learning new things every day and applying the things that u have been teaching him for ages but he don't seemed to care much.

Negatives ones....seems to be abit detached from the society. Especially when u have been working for quite some time, u naturally feel a sense of loss. Lost of income security and probably loss of 'looks' especially when u are too tired to dress up after a hard day work of caring for your baby. Sometimes also the lost of your time.

Seems to all of u that I have regretted my decision to be a sahm. Of course not, because I feel that the closeness and the stronger bond between me and my son makes me think that all these is worth the while.
