Even now I feel totally burnt out from the whole covid situation and all the lockdowns. Tell me it gets better!

Yes alawys, the less I do the more tired I become. Being active gives energy 🙂

The less I do, the more exhausted I am ????
Trying to keep yourself busy at home for this long is hard!

I feel more busier than ever because everyone’s always home!

I went back to work and even 25% of the work I was doing made me feel so tired have we become lazy or all the stress is weighing on us

No, not exhausted from doing nothing as there’s always plenty of work to do around our place and many hobbies to keep us all busy. Have also been catching up on reading and have binge watched a lot of Netflix series. and caught up with some shows on iview. Thank goodness for all the technology we have at this time.

I was but then for the kids sake I started to be stricter with my routine. Putting them to bed at their usual school night time and having a little bit of time to myself at night helped a lot. I have also been doing lots of walking the dog with the kids and making it a special time

Yes 100% so unmotivated try and set a schedule for the day it helps

Yes ! My sleep is all over the place.

yes i am but turns out I have a lack of iron . I would suggest getting it checked .Since starting on iron tablets find I have a little more energy .

Yes this is totally normal just try to exercise during the day

Yes totally, although I’m not sleeping well either. I am really struggling trying to find any type of routine and although getting outside and exercise it good – its not on the scale I used to do.

Yep! It feels a bit like groundhog day some days. I find getting out for an exercise walk daily certainly helps – could be the fresh air or endorphins from the walk!

I felt the same, and still am to some extent – however, I’m trying to increase my physical activity because that actually seems to help with the tiredness.

As a stay at home Mum to a not yet sleeping through, fiery toddler, and a emotionally under developed preschooler, i can honestly say, that exhaustion is a daily staple. But I’m never not busy. My only down time is the time it takes me to get to sleep. I’m currently having a rare moment before I go to bed where both kids are asleep. But now think about it, I need to finish dinner clean up, pick up toys from the hallway, so I don’t trip in the middle of the night and then sleep. God I miss a good night sleep.

Yes….I’m constantly exhausted from going to bed much later and having the kids nagging at me every five seconds is getting me down. I actually look forward to my weekly shopping outing “all by myself!!!!”

I find myself cooking and baking more every day as kids are home exhausting but everyone is home and well that’s my number one priority

I am working from home, so still doing some normal things, I am alternating between being exhausted and being wide awake and not being able to sleep. My patterns seems to be sleep for 12 hours for two nights in a row and then have about 3 hours. It is all very strange!

I had to go back to work last week so I’m working from home and doing all of the mum and wife stuff on top.
I would actually rather be at home than at work as I still get peace of mind that my bub is well taken care of and I can do bits and pieces here and there which I wouldn’t be able to do if I had to go into work.
Have you got a hobby of some sort or can you catch up on some reading?
Take this time as your ‘me time which you wouldn’t get if we weren’t all in lockdown.

If you’ve got kids, and they’re at home more, you’re not doing nothing!
