Stupid thought on womanly
nici84

I dont know why, but I dont feel very womanly lately. I dont know if its just all the winter grey-ness getting to me. Or if its that DH and I never seem to connect anymore unless its all about the kids. I love my girls! Dont get me wrong, but I just feel I have lost myself, in being a mom, and taking care of the house, and cooking and dogs, and all this stress where we will be having to move by September.
Is anyone else feeling a little like they have lost themselves in motherhood. Mind you I havent felt this way till recently, and I have a 3 yr old too. But it just seems I never dress up, I rarely wear makeup or even do my hair more then a ponytail. I even looked at my wardrobe and I have 3 pair of jeans (one of which is my maternity) and tee shirts, I dont have any clothes to dress up in, or anything, mostly yoga clothes and sweats. Im just not sure if I want to lose all of my desire to dress up and go out and have fun.

Re: Stupid thought on womanly
Yeah I have felt that way lately too. I haven't bothered doing my hair or makeup in months, we don't go out hardly ever anymore, and I literally wear sweats or PJs all weekend. I will blame the weather though. In MD we had a lot of beautiful spring like days in January and it gave me early spring fever. Now I am ready for winter to be over. I am going to have my hair done in 2 weeks and I feel that that might help bring me out of my funk a little. Don't worry...you are not the only one
