Working moms of 11+ months...
Do you feel more exhausted now then you did when they were an infant?
I am tired all the time. He is just sooo active when I get home. When he goes to bed I sometimes do too

Nothing wrong with getting a good night's sleep!
I felt that way too but I was pregnant when he was 12 months.

I was more exahausted when I was home with the little rummen full time! I only feel tired this week from 2 sleepless nights, other than that, I usually feel okay.

Re: Working moms of 11+ months...
Yup - it's MUCH more exhausting. I spend from 5pm-8pm running after her outside, inside, reading books, cleaning up everything she takes out of the drawers, making her dinner, cleaning her up, bathing her, getting her ready for bed, etc...
It's no wonder she's literally BEGGING for sleep by 7:30pm, and jumps into her crib and falls right to sleep!
After about a week of staying with us, my father turned to me and said, "does she ever just stop and rest?"

i actually have more energy when i am with her- but once she goes to bed- I'm pooped. I just sit on the couch and turn into a vegetable.

Re: Working moms of 11+ months...
I went to back to work when first DD was 11 months. I was done right after I put her to sleep. I didn't even put the TV on. I was so tired I would just go to bed. Cause i knew the next day, I'd be doing it all over again.

I work 1 day a week and I give many, many Kudos to working moms who do FT. I am purely exhausted when I get home and the kids are just Part 2 to my day!

Re: Working moms of 11+ months...
I was working FT up till a few weeks ago. Now I am home with DD and I feel waaay more exhausted. I agree with Racheee, work is like a vaca! LOL
I definately feel like its more work being home FT with her than workin FT, but I love that Im not missing anything now.
