I get dressed everyday. I shower first thing in the mornings and put on some makeup. It is a must for me it also makes me feel alot better and also I hate to look messy around the house especially I am always having company.



Same here.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

most days I do shower and get dressed and put on some makeup. I dont always blow out my hair , it takes soo long. Maybe once a week I just put on sweats and stay in.

I am lucky if I get to shower some days!Chat Icon



I'm with you on that! Chat Icon Chat Icon I do always TRY to shower and get "clothes" on and do something. But there are days when it's just easier to wash my face and stay in my jammies! Especially if I'm not going anywhere.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I do get out of my pj's everyday but as long as we're not headed outside I put on stretch pants & a shirt. If it's a nice day for a walk I will put on jeans and a top and only sometimes do my hair. DH's schedule changes everyday so I usually go by him right now if we are going out, doing errands, cleaning and such

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I will usually wear comfy capri sweats - or a sweatsuit. Sometimes I'll throw on a pair on jeans.

Usually just a plain Tshirt. Never anything fancy bc it just ends up with spitup and drool all over it anyway!

Hair is in a ponytail with some lipgloss on.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I'm a part time SAHM and I don't usually get more dressed then yoga pants or jeans and a tee. And my part time job consists of me wearing either a leotard and pants or a fitted tank and pants. So I only get "dreesed up" on the weekends.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

i used to wait for olivias first nap to get dressed. now that she is older in the morning when she gets up i put on mickey for her which she loves with some drinkable yogurt and take my 3 minute shower with the door open. i put on makeup everyday and get dressed. we do playgroup 5 days a week and hate to look like crap- plus all the moms at playgropu are done up. if i at least take a shower and try to look decent i dont feel so out of place.

most of the time i pull my hair back and wear jeans or comfy pants, never a skirt or dress.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

absolutely. I shower first thing in the AM and get dressed. I usually put makeup on while driving otherwise I don't wear it. As for my hair, mostly in a ponytail, bun, braids or baseball cap.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I take a shower everyday at 11am with Reese and Sydney and then i put them down for their nap and i blow dry my hair, put make-up on and get dressed. This way when they wake up i am already to go out. It also makes me feel good to be dressed for the day.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

When DS1 was a baby, there were many days I didn't get dressed until he napped around 11:00, and some days we did PJ days.

After he turned one and we were doing more things, I started getting dressed and doing my makeup every day. Now I can't imagine not doing it, it makes me feel so much better.

Yep, shower every day and get dressed. Some days its just yoga pants and a t-shirt, but I am clean and presentable and my hair is up and neat. I never wear make-up, so that isn't even part of my routine.

I usually end up in my pj's until DS's first nap around 9:30ish. But even after that I usually just put on yoga pants and a t-shirt. My hair is in a ponytail most of the time and I dont put on any make-up. How depressing, ha? I do work 2 days per week which is nice b/c I actually get dressed, do my hair and make-up and feel like a normal person. I just see the point in getting dressed up unless I am going out with DS. Am I the only bum?Chat Icon



I do about the same as you. I get dressed the days we work and wear jeans or gym clothes depending on our plans for the day other days.
It's funny though. I usually go shopping with the change of season and buy clothes with these grand plans of being dressed nice on a daily basis and that plan quickly goes out the window. Chat Icon

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

No matter what we're doing I always hav to take a shower and at least look a bit presentable - otherwise I find it very depressingChat Icon

I usually pull my hair back into a pony tail though - and I never get that dressed up, but just pulled together

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I just started getting up before the kids at about 6:30 and shower, dressed, dry my hair and have the coffee on before they get up at about 7ish.

I get so much more done during the day. This morning I did two loads of laundry and changed the sheets on the bed before the kids were up. I find that it makes an absolute difference on the days outlook when I get up and shower and get dressed.

Both go to bed early and sleep well at night so now that I don't have to get up in the middle of the night I feel ok getting up at 6:30...and I'm not a morning person!!

Dressed to me is non-pj's.
So yes, I get up take a shower and get dressed in comfty clothes. If I don't then my day is off. As soon as I get out of the shower, my hair goes in a wanna be pony and I never wear makeup.

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I'm pretty much always in sweats and tee at home, hair is always tied up since DS loves pulling my hair.
But I do get dressed up to go for walks and doc apptmts... as far as makeup, i usually dont have any on, sometimes i do...pends on my mood, i just feel like i always wore so much of it when i was working this is my face's chance to breathe...

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I immediately change out of my PJs since if I stay in them, I feel too lazy/out of it to really function..

Normally I just throw on sweats in the morning until Niko's nap (unless we have somewhere to go in the morning)... then while he's napping I put makeup on and get dressed since 99.9% of the time we are out for the afternoon doing errands, visiting, etc..

Sometimes even if we're staying home all day (which is rare) I still fix my hair/put on makeup just because it makes me feel better..

Re: SAHM's, do you get "dressed" every day?

I get dressed 99% of the time, full makeup, do hair and put jewelry on. We only have 1 car and DH takes it to work, but for my own sanity, i have to get dressed like i am going out everyday.
I couldn't just bum around, it makes me feel awful.
