Hi!
I am a SAHM to a 5 month old little boy and totally understand what you're going through ;) I joined my local MOMS Club, check out www.momsclub.org to find you're local chapter. They have stuff going on all the time! You can also try www.meetup.com, this website has tons of groups around the Denver area based on interest. There is one in Westminster that focuses on fitness, it's a lot of fun! The best advice anyone gave me was to GET INVOLVED! I hope this helps! Best of luck!

Hi Manige,
I work full-time but stayed at home with my now 10-month-old daughter for the first 12 weeks and I can understand that cabin fever feeling! I always felt better when I got out of the house, sometimes to meet my husband for lunch or hang out with family and friends during the day. Spring is just around the corner and with nicer weather it'll be easier to get outside. I struggle every day to go to work and leave my daughter, but I know it's hard being a SAHM, too! :)

Try MOPS or MOMS Club. Get online and they will tell you if they have them in your area. I believe both groups are in your area. I met a lot of moms that way when I first started staying home.

Something that has helped me other than the groups is to have a little outing if I feel couped up. Let's face it, there's always an errand that needs to be done. Sometime something as simple as going to the grocery store for the 2 things I forgot last time is enough to help. However, with baby #3 on the way, that opinion is quickly changing. :)
