I have a question for the mamas that have been moms for awhile. After having your child did you ever…

ive been a mom for 10 years & i have 4 soon to be 5 kids.. i dont feel like i lost myself.. i make sure i do for everybody but make me time as well..

Well I feel like i have I just don't know what i like other then being mom so i don't no how to treat myself or make time for myself. @mzbritt89

I feel the same way, are you a stay at home mom? maybe you should try to make it a thing where you get someone to watch the kids for a few hours so you can go out with friends or with your husband. I find that this helps especially with little ones that rely on us so much, it's good to get out and try to re learn what I am interested in and what I enjoy and what would make me happy if I were to treat myself

I get my mom to watch my daughter and my husband and I have date night every paycheck so that about 3 times a month and sometime more and I don't have any friends anymore. I am a stay at home mom.@kmharr3

My husband has to force me to buy things for myself, I go into a store and all I want to do is buy for my kids. I want them to have everything.

That how I am and my husband try to get me to and i tell him i am going to do something for myself then i come home and say look what i got for you or lilly and he gets mad but he sees i am happy but lately i kinda want to do something for myself but i dont know what i like or really who i am other then a mom witch i love but feel like i should want to be something els to and like it is a bad thing or at lest every one tells me i should treat myself. @thismakesthree

Go get your toes done, we all know it's hard to reach! And get yourself some new boots, and just do something small for yourself. You'll feel better

I was thinking Bout getting my nails and toes done at my favorite place because they are clean and so nice a little pricey but well worth it that and I get free sodas or water Since I'm pregnant lol or they would give me wine or margarita.@thismakesthree

I'm a stay at home mom we live 6-10 hours from all of our family and friends so I really know what you mean! 😓 I think I'm going to start getting myself like a monthly massage... and just go to a store grab a coffee (decaf) and wander around... maybe I'll find myself again

I think that when i lost myself is when i move out to the country with my husband and got pregnant and all of my friends were to far and i would go see them but would not come see me so i lost all of my friends and now that i am back in town it like they never new me so I stay and hang out with my family and my daughter and love that but think i need a friend or two to find myself again because it not fun to always get out and shop by yourself when you get away from the kids. @dreamermom

I feel the same way. The only thing I do for myself anymore is get my toes done every month but I don't buy self anything because I want to make sure my husband and kids have it if they need it
