I am wondering why my wife keeps saying that being a stay at home mum is such hard work. I am not trolling here - but i frankly dont understand. Seems simple enough to me. I have taken care of my kids and home all weekend before and it's definitely no where as stressful as having a job. Our kid is 11 months and is formula fed. We live in a 4 rm flat.

isolation from the corporate place with a lack of identity may also play a small role

Stay at home mum is not easy. Try doing it for extended period than see how you feel.

That's a misconception(: Working moms also have their own stress just different.

it depend in workload. but seriously being a SAHM is the hardest job

Different people have different stressors. It’s just different.

Do u involve in housework , cooking n groceries shopping too?

there are other factors that can contribute to the stress

It's never a easy job looking after the kids at home.

you can try taking over :)

Can be really boring and going out can be a chore.
