Working moms who shifted to SAHM, how did you cope up with the changes?
How did you cope up with the audden changes? From paper works to the busy world of motherhood. No maid.
Hay, ang transition na yan ay real talk, it took me a good few months to stop thinking about deadlines habang nag-aalaga ng kids, haha! What helped me and a few of my mum friends who did the same is accepting na ang "productivity" ay completely different now, kaya I had to redefine success for myself, hindi na about finished reports, kundi if lahat ng bata ay kumain, safe, at loved. The first year ay medyo overwhelming talaga, especially walang tulong, pero I realized na pacing myself (like letting go of perfect house = happy mom) at finding even 15 minutes to do something just for me, whether coffee in the morning or a quick walk, made the adjustment less isolating kasi it reminded me I'm still me, hindi lang "mommy."
