SAHM is the first year the hardest

It does get easier. It's a huge adjustment.

Re: SAHM is the first year the hardest
It absolutely gets easier! You'll have to do a bit more running around and chasing in the second year, but you'll also get more hugs and interaction which makes it less frustrating that the first year.

Re: SAHM is the first year the hardest
yes it does....when you know how to read their signals and have somewhat of a routine, it works SO much better.
For us....I don't run around town with her all that much. We go outside, but for the most part, we hang out near home.

Re: SAHM is the first year the hardest
The first year was the absolute hardest for me to adjust to motherhood and a stay at home wife. It certainly got easier after age 2 with both my adjustment to a sahm and my marriage. hugs and good luck!

Re: SAHM is the first year the hardest
I remember my mom told me it gets less emotionally exhausting - but more physically exhausting, boy was she right! It's more FUN now though - and more interactive and busy!

Re: SAHM is the first year the hardest
For me the first 6 months were the hardest. After that it has gotten easier (although I wouldn't say it's an easy job by any means). At 6 months she cried less, napped better and was just more fun in general. Now at almost 18 months she is a lot of fun!
