after becoming a mother did you ever need alone time? I am a new mother of a 2 1/2 month old and find that i need at least an hour of alone time each day. Now I do go to work but even so when i get home i need to have at least an hour to be by myself and then i can be with the family for the night and then there are nights when i need time alone with my spouse. Did you ever request to have "alone time" if so was your spouse accomadating (sp?)

I have son that is almost 2 weeks old and the alone time that I get is usually when He is asleep. I know that is going to change soon but I try to get as much alone time that I can.

well when they are that old lol which isn't old at all you really don't have any but i think after he is a month you may see that you get a little more alone time that is if you have the fathers help

Hello I am a man retired now, my younger son and his wife and baby daughter are with me always, my elder son lives far with his family and kids at his work place, my wife is now there with them for a month.. Quite naturally i feel so lonely, ofcourse i try to reduce this feeling of aloneness by keeping engaged , some times i help my daughter in law in kitchen.. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers.
