It weirded me out when she started waking up happy &amp; taking - I posed a thread about it! Everyone reassured me though. Now if she wakes up happy I let her play in her crib for up to 20 minutes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593215 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 13:18:54 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1593215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>if he's crying right away - yes. But if he chats for awhile, I leave him be. Today he woke up yelling, "Daddy! Where are you?!" it was funny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593211 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 13:18:13 +0000 septca 1593211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: Don't fret. My DD didn't start her slow wake-up system until about 13 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593204 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 13:16:56 +0000 MamaJ 1593204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I am already and awake and doing something and he is happy, then I wait. If I am asleep still and I hear him I usually just get up, go to the bathroom and then get him. </p> <p>He has been turning his light on (the switch is above his crib and he just realized he can reach it when he stands) and talking in the mornings lately. This morning I was asleep and saw he was up. Who knows how long he was doing that for before I woke up haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593192 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 13:13:30 +0000 Anagram 1593192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO always wakes up crying. Even now at 9 months. And then she escalates. So...yup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593127 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:59:21 +0000 Smurfette 1593127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never! She wakes up at 530 and Mom can't handle that crap </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593099 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:53:05 +0000 septca 1593099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My *wonderful* DD wakes up about 6:45, and then spend about 20 minutes tossing and turning, finding her Wubanub and rubbing her eyes. Then she spends about 10-15 more minutes playing in her crib, taking to herself and singing. When she is ready to get up, she stands up, looks at the monitor camera, and says, "up, up, UP!!" It's a good system. Gives me plenty of time to shower, drink my coffee, get myself mostly ready. :wink: And she is *just* like her daddy - takes forever and a day to wake up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593066 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:45:53 +0000 artsyfartsy 1593066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T can't entertain himself much yet but I give him a few minutes after I see he's awake just to chill and not get used to needing me to get him as soon as he wakes. I'll add more time as he gets older but he's just 9 weeks right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1593054 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:43:18 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1593054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If she's upset, yes, but I take my time if she's ok. But then again, I'm always excited to see them in the mornings, so I go in pretty quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592981 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:25:02 +0000 Canoli 1592981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the most part yes. He's the kind of kid that wants to be picked up right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592878 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:58:41 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1592878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope - we usually wait at least ten minutes, or until she gets really cranky. Sometimes, I crack her door open and spy on her playing in the crib while she's waiting for us. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592874 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:57:15 +0000 PurplePeony 1592874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wait until she starts to sound fussy. How long that takes usually depends on how hungry she is -- usually she babbles for a few minutes but sometimes she wakes up roaring and wants BOOBS STAT!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592873 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:57:09 +0000 lovehoneybee 1592873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If he's happy and we're not on a really tight schedule I let him hang out for a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592799 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:34:48 +0000 sorrycharlie 1592799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no way. i let her have some alone time to wake up :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592774 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:30:01 +0000 matador84 1592774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! I'm usually in bed nursing dd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592770 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:28:40 +0000 littlebug 1592770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I let him hang out and babble in there. I think it's good for him to play happily by himself. Plus, if it's super early and I don't want to get up yet, sometimes he'll fall back asleep. Score! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592765 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:27:03 +0000 swurlygurl 1592765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No - I let her play and talk with her animals and then get her when she starts screaming for me. Sometimes it's zero minutes, sometimes it's 30! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592759 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:25:42 +0000 NovBaby1112 1592759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the morning I always let LO play and "chat" with her animals before getting her. I usually need the extra time to get ready, etc. She can entertain herself for usually 15-20 minutes in the am. For naps, she usually wants out right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592757 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:24:13 +0000 JerricaBenton 1592757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck no. If she's having fun or just daydreaming I let her chill. Sometimes I don't even know what time she woke up in the morning because when I wake up I see her playing in her crib on the monitor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592755 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:23:42 +0000 BananaPancakes 1592755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Almost never. For the most part, he seems to prefer having time to wake up before getting out of the crib. I like to lay in bed for a while myself, so I know how he feels. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592742 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 11:20:59 +0000 Greentea 1592742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is right next to me in her crib so she usually lets me know she is awake! I love when I wake up to her happy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592481 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 10:12:41 +0000 Cherrybee 1592481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually wait until she starts getting fractious - which is usually when she gets herself wedged into some crazy position!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592462 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 10:10:28 +0000 meredithNYC 1592462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. If she's happy and babbling to her lovies, I'll let her hang out. I think it's good for babies to be comfortable by themselves sometimes, provided they're content doing so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-your-lo-immediately-when-they-wake-up#post-1592450 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 10:08:39 +0000 pinkcupcake 1592450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO woke up about 5 minutes ago. I can hear her chatting to herself and her stuffed animals. I feel like I should go get her but I really wanna finish my coffee so I'm hoping she will keep her entertained for 5 more minutes :)</p> <p>Do you get your LO immediately when they wake up or do you wait a bit? If she's happy / content, I'll usually wait a bit. </p>
