[quote=Anonymous]It's hard. There is a tremendous amount of societal pressure to make your kids the center of your life and to have zero outside interests. Or else, god forbid, your kid won't get into an Ivy League school and is doomed to a life of mediocrity. Husbands also tend to not understand, I've heard several (my own included) say that cooking dinner counts as their wives' "me" time. I've started by going to the gym daily (I loved working out pre-kids and it helps me feel young again) and going to a class I enjoy one night per week that has a fantastic group of women. I'm also working on getting back into the career I adored but left to have a family and support my husband's job. What's your current situation? Do you work or SAH? What did you enjoy doing pre-family?[/quote]
