mom's first night out.

All mother especally stay at home mums really should take some "me time", I don't get out much now but I'm starting a course next week, which will run every Tuesday night so that should be fun, I get to talk to adults, yipee.

I am a firn believer that if you cannot get out once a week you should shoot for every other weekend. It is important for kids to understand that their parents have lives separate from theirs, just as it is important for parents to remember that their children have separate lives.

I usually go out for a date with my hubby. Its really enjoyable compared having naughty kids with you. Sometimes couple needs a sweet privacy for both of them. It was so much fun having a bunch bond with him.

wow, that's so nice, at least your mother knows that you need to go out and have fun also,and you have understanding mother. as of now, i have no time to go out and have fun as my baby is too young, he is 4 months old, he needs more love and care this time, so i will wait till he reaches 1 year old, and i will go out definitely with my husband and other friends..

id love to go out sometime but i can't seem to have some "me" time, im always with my daughter 24/7. maybe one day i will get to go out and i shall enjoy myself alot, LOL! happy to see that you got a night out, after all we do all need these little things to do in life! :o)

That is wonderful that you had a chance to take some 'me time.' My children are mostly grown now (youngest is 16). I remember well though what it was like to need some time for myself! Please continue to take time for you, as in the long run you end up a more relaxed and focuses parent! Some of my friends used to try and make me feel guilty that I left my child with my parents and took time for me. It actually didn't bother me though, I knew in my heart that if I didn't take some time for me that I would be cranky and resentful. Kudos to you for taking care of yourself so that you can be the best mom for your children!

Girll! I know where you are coming from! lol!! My son is 4 years old and I have been out maybe twice without him..humm....maybe even 3 times..and I tell you..being a mom has aged me on soo many levels!! I went bar hopping on 2 of the nights i went out.and went to a friends BBQ party on the third,,now that i rememebr..by 10 pm..I WAS READY FOR BED!! lol! Although i did have lots of fun and I miss my friends..and miss being able to go out..I gues those years are up for me lol..And dont get me wrong..i love my son with all my heart..he is my world..yet it was great to be somehwere an not worry what i say..and act..and i didt have to be a mommy..but April..know what i mean?And i still look foward ot my once a year outing lol..I really dont miss the bar scene anymore..which is weird is you knew me before Sky..but i think my next outing.,.i will have dinner..maybe a few drinks and see a great horror film with some friends:)

My husband has always been great with out daughter. He would watch her any time I wanted to go some where. He has a great bond with his daughter. I think I went out for the first time when she was about six months. I had a party to go to and my husband had no problem with me going. In the respect I would watch her if he wanted to go some where. I think my daughter was one year old before we left her with her grandmother so that we could go out together. It is hard to work around your childs schedual so you can have a life but it can be done.

Mine 3 are almost all grown now 21, 20, and 17 so I don't need a babysitter to go out anymore. When they were little we used to take them to my mom's once a week and do all kinds of things. Go see a movie, go dancing and to dinner. Once we even left them for a weekend with grandma and went to resort/spa. The massage was great the quiet greater and food was to die for. Remember that a little mommy time makes you a better mommy. Allow yourself the luxury of one night a week or even once every other week to go out and enjoy your friends or husband, you return home relaxed and rejuvenated and that will make you a better parent. And by all means no guilt because you had a good time. No one says that you have to be a mother round the clock and year round. YOur hubby gets to go out in the real world every day take that time for yourselves and when she is grown and gone you and your husband will still know who the other is and your marriage will be stronger for it.

me and my husband got to out for the first time since i got pregnant, and my son is going on 5 months old. we went to his unlce's club and got to drink (for the first time) well at least he got to since i might be pregnant again. but it was fun. we requested our first dance song and danced to it. it was real nice!

i know how you feel. i also have2 children and i seldom go out now that i have kids to attend to.goodthingi have an understanding husband that lets me go out once in awhile with my girlfriends so that ican still catch up with what is happeningwith their respective lives.we just have coffee and have our chats.i don't have someone butmy husband who is patient enough to take care of them while i'm gone.sometimes we really need to go out,but i prefer quiet chat than going to parties.

Everyday me and my husband are always busy in our work. We already have 4 year old daugther and I recently gave birth with our 2 month old daugther. The only time that we will have time together is when my husband will fetch me from my office and when we will have grocery. So in as much as possible we really treasure each time that we are together may it be in the grocery store or simple having snacks together in a restaurants..

whatevre...
