SAHM leisure time

LOL sleep when I'm not pregnant is a leisure activity to me as well so perhaps I do get more hours than I think

I think baby-free time is definitely close to 40 hrs/week for me but that's not all leisure time. Nap times are the only times I get to pay the bills, sort out our finances and other house stuff (including house back in NZ), do grocery shopping and prepare food etc etc etc. So no housework and yes I can get out without Callum but I don't consider those things leisure activities!

Hanging out on here, reading a book for pleasure, playing sport or having a coffee with a friend or a date with DH - THAT is leisure time to me

Did they have any comments about mothers who work? I can't imagine that they get much if any during the week. I have a very 'full on' job with little if any down time during an average day. Because I finish at 4.00 so I can collect the baby I don't take lunch breaks. The few hours in the evening 'free' after he goes to bed disappear in a flurry of washing, dishes, cooking , cleaning, bill paying etc and usually a bit more work. All these things plus groceries etc also take up big chunks of the weekend. .
IWhen you are working and away from your child for most of the day it seems very unfair on him to not spend every chance you can with him in the evenings and weekends.

I get that much leisure time but do have a preschooler with me for most of it. We for go walks, out of coffee/fluffy, visit the playground, read lots of books, play on the floor with trains, blocks etc and if I'm really lucky I get to surf the net or read a book while he plays. It just depends on whether you consider hanging out with young kids leisure time or not.
