[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is all foreign to me. Why does having a kid mean you have to change your appearance? I dress the same and have the same beauty routine (manicures, threading, hair color) as prekids. Really nothing has changed! [/quote] Because you can't bring your child with you. It is hard to keep up these beauty treatments if you are a SAHM and don't have regular childcare already arranged (as you would if you worked outside house) or a nanny. Maybe DH works late and/or weekends and you don't have family to help. So are left with resorting to various high school neighbor girls and college girls to babysit. Finding a babysitter on a random random Tuesday at 11 isn't always easy. [/quote] Sure it’s harder to have these things done and manage childcare. But if you really want to, you can make it happen. If you make it a priority you can keep up your appearance. I bring my kids with me for threading (only takes 5 minutes). Manicures Sunday afternoon while kids nap. Hair is every 5 weeks. Online shopping for clothing. [/quote]
