Hard to focus....

I have been incredibly unmotivated lately to do anything but baby stuff! I am trying to finish up a ton of maternity leave plans and other things that need to be finished before I take maternity leave, but I can't seem to care! Anyone else this unmotivated? I need to find some inspiration to get going! ha ha

Re: Hard to focus....

  • Me too. I seem to have the energy to get the baby's room set up but cleaning or doing dishes... Not so much

  • I am the same way. I just don't feel like getting things done. I almost feel like my attention span is half of what it used to be, too. I start a project and then don't get very far and go back to the couch. Feeling so lazy lately.
  • I have zero motivation to do anything like that whatsoever, not even baby room. Somedays are much better than others but there is just no motivation there.

  • I have ZERO energy and I am too tired to even care.

    I have no ambition. I had a good couple weels of cooking and cleaning a while ago. I told DH today I don't think it's coming back. I even told him we may just order from Schwan's instead of making freezer meals.

  • We're in the middle of a bathroom reno, which means there's a lot of upheaval in the house. The nursery is also under constructions, so I'm using these things as an excuse to do 1/2 the amount of housework I normally do.

    I finally got the gusto to do some real cleaning and tidying today and now DH has decided to put a load of his clothes on eBay, so the living room is a complete joke again. I despair.

    At least you're motivated to do baby stuff.  I'm not even motivated enough to make a list of the things I'm avoiding actually doing.
    Word to this.  Getting ONE thing accomplished is a feat these days.
  • I feel the same way. Work is the last thing I want to do. I'm dreading tomorrow and cannot wait for Friday at 5! There is a long list of items I need to check off before I take maternity leave! One minute I am doing work the next I'm googling something about the baby lol. Attention span is non existent. Plus all my coworkers come ask me how I am doing all day! It is so hard to get work done when I live and breathe baby chats!
  • I'm soooo struggling to do the behind the scenery shit!! Nursery looks great, nursery closet - an unorganized disaster! All I want is to tackle some of these organizational projects that will save our sanity once DD arrives. Frozen meals, organized storage in her room, a good deep clean of the house. The projects that truly matter - nada motivation. So find comfort in you're so not alone!!!
    This was so me!  I had planned to clear out the nursery closet every weekend for over a month, but I kept putting it off.  It's amazing how much junk I had accumulated in that closet over the years!  My sister-in-law and friends graciously threw me a baby shower recently and that was the kick in the butt I needed; DH and I cleaned out the closet yesterday to put away our newly acquired baby clothes and other items! :)

  • Yeah, motivation at work is seriously lacking right now. I just want to be at home getting the house ready for baby. And also hire a cleaning service to clean my bathrooms, floors, and do some dusting.
