Things for a Stay-At-Home Mom To Do

If you are a new stay-at-home mom, you may find that you are overwhelmed and unable to figure out what to do during the day. While you may have been used to your busy work week, you are now watching after your children and when they nap, you may not feel like taking a nap with them.

While you may feel like polishing your Chopard jewelry, there are other matters that need to be taken care of, like cleaning, laundry or doing the dishes. The first thing you want to do is to write out a list. By making a list, you will write down everything you need to get done so that you don't forget everything. You can then check items off on the list to give you a sense of accomplishment and also it lets you know how many other things you have left to do for the day.

Next, take your time. There's no need for everything to get done at once. Pick a project, and see it to the end. If you have something like laundry, grab a book and relax while the washer is going or choose another item on your list. If you start to feel overwhelmed, then slow down because you are more likely to not finish a task when you start dreading it.

If you get tired, then take a nap. You don't want to get so tired that you can't take care of your child when it wakes up. If you are lucky, your child will sleep for a few hours during the day and all through the night. If you aren't so lucky, then you need to sleep when you can get it. By having a system of organization in place, you can plan ahead and get more work done.
