[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've done both SAHM and WOHM.   I can assure you, when I'm in a SAHM mode I am doing lots of fun things for myself- exercise classes, tennis, hiking, meeting friends for coffee, meeting friends for lunch, etc...  I know that I'm taking care of the kids and household but I make a point of doing things that I like doing and not feeling guilty about it.[/quote]
I call bullshit. I've been a SAHM for 3 years and I haven't had time to exercise that whole time. I met friends for coffee when my first was <1, but that's about it. Sure, I see friends during activities and hang outs, but it's not exactly leisure time to watch a bunch of mobile kids destroy a house or try to kill themselves at the playground. You have never been any such thing.[/quote]m

Really?  My mom was a sahm and she did many of these things

Not being able to exercise?  Gyms typically have a daycare for when you want to work out.  Or you jog with a baby stroller.  Or walk to the grocery store.

You're ridiculous. [/quote]
We don't have money for gym memberships or jogging strollers because we need a regular stroller. A walk to the grocery store is not exercise. Don't get me wrong, I'm put together and slender naturally, but the idea that I get to hit the gym every day whilst caring for two children under 3 is hilarious. [/quote]
