How do mothers who raise their children alone usually cook?

Bringing up children is inherently a very hard job. If a mother takes care of her children alone and still has to do housework, how can she do this? I am now a mother of two children. I take care of my children all by myself and do some housework. Let me share my true feelings and experiences!

I live with my parents-in-law. My parents usually go to the fields to do some farm work. My mother-in-law is not feeling well, so she just stays at home. Every morning I would take Dabao to kindergarten first, and on the way back I would buy some steamed buns and soy milk for breakfast, and sometimes I would cook noodles at home.

After coming back, I will feed the baby milk, change diapers, and put on clothes. After packing up the baby, put the baby in the stroller. It's time for me to have breakfast. After the meal, it's time to wash the clothes. In fact, it's just a simple matter of putting them in the washing machine. Then sweep, mop, and hang clothes. After all this was done, I used the stroller to push Xiaobao out to play.

Go home on time at 10:30 and pick some vegetables for lunch. Sometimes Xiaobao goes to bed after 10 or 11 o'clock. Then I can cook with peace of mind at this time. When I finished cooking, Xiaobao woke up. Then there is no lunch break with the baby.

If my baby doesn’t sleep in the morning, I will cook and take care of the baby at the same time. Now Xiaobao has reached the stage where he can crawl and stand up. I usually put the baby in the stroller when cooking, but at different stages, the baby will also crawl and stand up in the stroller. There will be a certain degree of danger at this time, and you can only watch while doing housework.

I remember one time when I was cooking rice, it took 20 minutes to put the rice in the pot. There is no way, you have to watch the child as soon as he gets up, and you have to watch him again as soon as he gets up. Maybe some people will ask why not carry it? I rarely carry children on my back because when I do, I feel dizzy and want to vomit. After carrying it for more than ten minutes and feeling dizzy for several hours, I felt it was not worth it.

It is easier to cook when Xiaobao is obedient. I was there cutting and cutting, and he was watching from the side. I was there cooking and cooking, and he was babbling and learning English next to me.

Generally speaking, it is quite hard to take care of a baby and cook at the same time, but it is also a helpless move.

It reminds me of my most miserable days. I am an unfettered person, and I feel that my mother-in-law has to take care of everything. I moved back to my own house 30 days after my son was born. I found a place to live and started living day and night.

My son had a relatively easy time when he was a baby. Because he slept a lot, I did laundry, cooking, and mopping the floor. I was busy all day long. Every time I finished all the work and was about to rest, he woke up. . . .

I don’t know how to cook. I usually boil vegetables and stew them randomly. Because my child needs breast milk, I rarely go out to eat for my child’s sake.

My family has a premature baby who is frail and sick and does not play his cards according to the routine, which tortures people day and night.

When the child is seven or eight months old, that is the most terrifying time. He must be accompanied by someone when he sleeps. He will cry as soon as I leave him. I usually stay in the middle of the night to wash clothes and mop the floor. I just hold him in my arms while cooking, because when I put him in the car, he cried and wanted to crawl out. When I put him on the climbing mat, he crawled over and hugged his thighs and continued to cry. I could only hold the baby with one hand and cook with the other.

Mainly I gave him complementary food. I held him and tossed him many times a day. I didn’t have time to cook for myself, so I went out to eat. In this way, I slowly stopped breastfeeding until I was one year old and one month old. , let the child’s grandma help take care of it for a while, and then my husband and I took care of it.

Raising a child alone is a mess. It’s easy to say anything to a child if he behaves well. But if you have this little devil like me, I won’t even give you a chance to breathe. To put it bluntly, I have no experience to share. The most experience I have is my own. Holding a baby in your arms, completing the housework on your own, and having a little devil with a poor physical condition and making troubles, you can't even plan what to do in a day

How to cook when you are alone with a child?

I am also raising my children alone, and the children are almost 2 years apart in age. It will be slightly better when the children are 2 to 3 months old, because they sleep more at this time. Most of the time, he was sleeping while I was cooking. But the situation is different after 3 months. The baby wakes up earlier in the morning and goes to bed earlier in the morning. When it is time to cook, the baby wakes up.

Sometimes I happen to be cutting meat. When he wakes up, I can’t hold him or not. I can only let him cry for a while. Cut the meat, wash your hands, and cook while holding the baby. Most of the time, he was carried on a sling to cook and eat.

When the baby is 6 months old, he can play with his brother. Although his brother is still young, he will also play with him.

Therefore, my mother is really a mother. She used to think that she could not take care of her two children, but she did it herself.

In fact, regarding this issue, I think moms can still be busy as long as they arrange their time reasonably. Maybe people nowadays are more delicate, so there are more problems. I think mothers with children can learn from the Teochew people. Each Chaozhou family has three to four children, and they usually have no one to help them take care of their children. It is their job to take care of the children and do housework. When my husband comes home, he usually drinks tea and chats with others. Women take care of the children and do housework. Maybe it's because I'm older, but I take this for granted.

I remember one time I was a guest at a Chaozhou family. There were four children in this family, the oldest was six years old, the younger ones were four, two and one year old. After arriving at home and sitting down, we guests were invited by the host to the living room to drink tea. But the hostess had a small child hanging on her back, and the other three older ones, led by the eldest, were sitting next to the TV playing with building blocks and watching cartoons. We felt sorry for it and asked to put the youngest child down for us to help take care of. The host stopped us and told us that we couldn't take care of the child and he would cry if he followed us. The hostess also disagreed with us taking her and said she was used to cooking with her child on her back. I asked the male host whether he helped his wife with some housework when there were no guests. The male host told us: "My wife is very capable. I am responsible for making money outside, and my wife is responsible for taking care of the four children at home and doing housework. When I get home, basically You don't need my help. ""Don't you need to take care of the children?" the companion asked, and the host told us, "Basically, I don't need to take care of the children. My wife takes care of the youngest. Although there are four children, the two youngest ones are the ones who really need my wife’s hard work, so I basically don’t need my help. “To be honest, those in front of the screen will definitely be surprised when they see this. Yes, according to what I learned afterwards, this is not the case for this family, but also for most other families.

So if you only have one child, you can do housework well as long as your time is arranged properly. In life, we must learn to be self-reliant and self-reliant, and slowly cultivate children to develop good habits. In this way, mothers will get twice the result with half the effort in raising their children.

I am going through this now. After the confinement period, my husband and I took care of the baby together. A few days later, my husband went to work in a different place, and then I took care of it myself. The baby is three months old. They say that after three months, the mother will be recognized. It is true. It's like this. Recently, he has become more and more clingy to me. He starts crying when he is lying on the bed without even looking at him, so that I have to watch him and play with him all the time to be happy. So I have less time to take care of myself. As for cooking and eating, how to do it quickly and easily while ensuring nutrition. After having a baby, I basically replaced all the small kitchen appliances with smart ones, such as hot water kettles, rice cookers, electric pans, and bread machines. You can make reservations in advance or prepare ingredients for operation on your mobile phone. You can make reservations for porridge for the next morning the night before. Just fry an egg and have a meal the next morning, which is nutritious and quick. Before the baby wakes up, start packing up the ingredients for lunch. When making a soup at noon, pack the ingredients, put them in a casserole or pressure cooker, and cook on high heat. Make more at noon, and make the evening ones too. Heat it up and it's ready to eat. As for grocery shopping, when your baby is young and can’t go out, just leave it to the Internet. Try to buy things that are easy to operate or semi-finished products. When the family is around, I ask them to buy some and store them in the refrigerator and make some wonton dumplings. They can still fill their stomachs in an emergency. After having a baby, the problems of picky eaters and mysophobia have been eliminated... Women are weak in nature, but mothers are strong. Just, hold on?...

My mother-in-law and I work half a day, and take care of the kids half a day. In short, we are all taking care of each other alone.

When a child is breastfeeding, he always takes a few sips, takes a break, and eats for an hour. At that time, his waist is very tired. When the child was 11 months old, she was weaned from night feeding. In order not to disturb my husband's rest, I weaned her alone in a small room. She woke up two or three times a night and cried for 1-2 hours each time. I just held her and stayed with her.

When I reach the stage where I put everything in my mouth and eat it, I put everything in the house high, including trash cans and locked drawers. When cooking, he put her in an empty box and blocked it with coffee tables, sofas, and chairs. Although she would cry, there was nothing she could do. But after a while, the little guy was able to climb onto the coffee table, get down along the coffee table, and open the kitchen door. So I searched online for locks that lock sliding doors. She was crying by the kitchen door, and I would sometimes make faces for her while I was cooking.

I got better after I learned how to leave. I ran around, rummaged through things, hid what should be hidden, and locked what should be locked.

Let me talk about myself first.

It is really unimaginable for others to take care of children alone, especially if you have to do laundry and cook.

My mother said that when I was a child, he would tie me to the window frame (similar to how dogs are tied now), and then he would do the laundry and cook.

But life now is completely different from the past, and the way of educating children is also different.

I usually do what I can do.

When cooking for your baby, put the baby in the playpen and let him play by himself for a while.

I always soak the clothes during the day and then wash them at night after the children go to bed.

I usually order takeout for my own meals.

Because he is afraid that the child will be in danger, he rarely leaves the child's sight.

It’s really a headache when I have to cook every day. When I was little, I always waited until she was asleep, but at that time, her sleep time was short and she would wake up in half an hour, but at least she could put down the rice. The pot is ready, the vegetables are washed, and the meat is cut. If you are older, wait for her to sneak into the kitchen without paying attention. It will take some time for her to crawl in. Just keep buying time, and you won't do anything for her when she crawls over. When she is older and can walk and run, if you go into the kitchen with your front feet, she will follow with her rear feet, just to pull you out. Sometimes she even has to go in several times to wash the rice.

She is now two years old. She cries when she sees me entering the kitchen. She pulls you away and tells you to leave. I can’t wait to cook. When she is full, she plays with her and refuses to let me eat. My mother asked me to reason with her, and she will listen now. It's like this every day, and toys, TV, and even mobile phones won't work with her. In the end, I yelled and hit her, and she cried and continued to pester me. She was really tired. If you have any good ideas, please teach me, thank you.

Hey, you have to raise two cats by yourself and raise six cats. Thinking back on the hardships of four years, the hardest part is the time when you have to raise the oldest one by yourself. He clings to you wherever you go, when you cook, and when you go to the toilet. , it sticks to everything I do. When cooking, I can only mop the floor and ask the children to crawl on the floor. Put some fresh and easy-to-hand things, such as vegetables, fruits, cooking shovels, etc., and use a basin with bath toys. At that time, thanks to the fact that we had three cats at home with us, we could occasionally get away from each other. I only started cleaning when the children were sleeping. Now the eldest is less than three years old, and the second is nine months old. They wake up every morning and clean the house. The eldest one gets a bottle of milk, and I make some simple meals. The second eldest brother stays next to the eldest brother. As long as he and his sister are together, I will eat quietly. After dinner, I will clean up the house and tidy up the house and clean up the cats. I work more quickly. quick! I always plan ahead before starting any work. After cleaning up the two children, they almost can’t stay any longer, so I feed the younger one with milk and water. During this period, the older one can play by himself! At ten o'clock, it's almost time to put the second child to bed. Before going to bed, prepare things for the second child to play with in advance, such as reading books, materials for a small experiment, or letting the second child distribute the cat's food at home. It takes about half an hour for the second child to play. When I fall asleep, I can go out and read books and listen to songs with my elder brother. When my second child wakes up in an hour, I can play with the two sisters for a while, and let my elder sister accompany her while I make food for the second child. During this time, I will Come over and take a look! After preparing meals, my sister is now at an age where she can play by herself and don’t have to worry about going to the toilet.

So I don’t have to worry about the oldest child when I’m feeding and washing the second child. I’ve put everything in the play area at home and I start cooking. When the meal is almost done, my husband gets off work. We eat together and clean up. Occasionally, my husband will wash the dishes. The last step is to put the two of them to sleep, one of them, and the other to my husband. When both of them are asleep, I can also play with my phone and take a rest! Almost two hours later, both of them woke up, and took it easy to get up, because when the eldest son had a tantrum, this was particularly interesting. As long as the eldest son cries, the second son never cries, so I rarely see the situation. Only then will I coax the two crying children, eat fruit when they wake up, and play with them for a while to prepare the evening meal. It is meal time from 6 to 7 o'clock. My husband also comes back from work to help after dinner and play for a while before going to bed. , one day's work is done. Two or three times a week, I take my two children to the supermarket alone. I carry one on my back and receive the other. When I go to the supermarket, I can put the older one in the cart and hold the younger one on a waist stool. I put the purchased items in the car and wait for my husband to pick them up when he comes back from get off work! On weekends, my husband and I take the eldest child to early childhood education, and each of us is responsible for one child.

Although it is tiring every day, life is fulfilling after all, and the couple is happy when they play with their two little ones every day! As a wife, take care of the home, and as a mother, take care of the children! I think it is necessary to take care of children by yourself, especially the relationship established with children from zero to three years old cannot be bought with any amount of money. Although it is tiring, when the children grow up, no matter how much money they make, it cannot be compared. What an honor! Believe in yourself!
