Tips on personal freedom for mama

Hi mamas and papas, I work full time office time and have a 18 months toddler. When working she is with my in laws. Morning and night time of weekdays and weekend are with us. I find I have almost close to 0 personal life. It’s work, admin, caretaking and repeat. Usually by end of the day I’m exhausted. Occasionally I get friends over or go out but it’s usually with my kid. Not sure if it’s a duh questions.. Any tips on how you got back some personal freedom in daily life?

Hi mama, I am also like you, or maybe worst than you, my LO goes to infantcare and now childcare. I have close to 0 personal life too but, this phase will soon passed and they no longer need you. My take is, they grow up very very fast especially in the first few years, do enjoy and treasure these moments, when they grow up, enjoy the ME time. Occasionally I do take leave and enjoy some ME time, outing with friends on weekends are like 4-5 times a year 😂 when my LO isn’t well, she is with me 24 hours 3-5 days.
