I also get food ready while he's getting picked up by Daddy at night, so I see him both day and night.

I go to work before he gets up and my husband takes the kids to daycare. And I only see Logan because I'm still nursing him in the morning. Once we're done nursing, I probably won't see either of them in the morning. I pick them up from daycare though, so I always see them in the evening! Hubs usually sees them both morning and night, but occasionally will work late and not see them in the evening.

It's hard for all of us as I know the girls really miss seeing him, and he misses them as well, but it means we really treasure our weekends together.

If I could go to the gym later and go straight to work, i would skip seeing him a couple times a week. looch on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122086 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 07:47:50 +0000 looch 2122086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I focus on quality, not quantity of time when it comes to spending time with my son. I might not be spending huge amounts of time with him during the week, but on the weekends, that is when we do things together. I am pretty strict about protecting that time, so during the week, I am a little more mentally/emotionally free to do what needs to get done alone.

I immediately changed my schedule and now I do get time in the morning and in the evening. DH occasionally misses evening time but he has 1.5 hrs with her every morning after I leave for work and before he drops her at daycare. I know there'll come a day when I don't get to see her in the mornings. She wakes up early now and I know she won't always do that so I'll have to get used to it :( GrapeCrush on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122028 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 06:11:00 +0000 GrapeCrush 2122028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ The 2 days I'm in the office I don't see the kids in the morning. gilmoregirl on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122016 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 04:42:04 +0000 gilmoregirl 2122016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I leave for work at 6:30 so I rarely see my son on weekday mornings. My husband really likes being "in charge" of a portion of his care and missing the baby a little has been good for me because I enjoy our evenings together so much. It's worked out well for us. rachiecakes on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122015 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 04:40:19 +0000 rachiecakes 2122015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't see DS in the mornings during the week. I leave for work and he's sleeping. It's actually easier that way, if he's awake he will want me to do breakfast, read books, etc., and it makes it hard to leave. @Grace: same! because I miss the morning, I don't want to miss evenings as well, and he'd be with the gym babysitting because DH works nights. I leave at 7:15/30 for work. I need more hours in the day! lamariniere on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122013 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 04:08:57 +0000 lamariniere 2122013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always see mine, but I WAH. miramira on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2122011 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 04:04:58 +0000 miramira 2122011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My husband sometimes misses out on seeing DS in the mornings, but he does see him every evening.

My husband only sees them in the morning, though.

I really really need to go to the gym more, but I can't seem to make myself do it. I'm hoping when she's older, I'll be more ok with the idea. blackbird on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121943 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 21:53:59 +0000 blackbird 2121943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My husband misses every morning because he works at 6am and she sleeps until 645. I miss an evening sometimes because I'll do a happy hour. You get used to it! I only see her for about 15 min each mornung.

Thankfully I'm part time now, when I was full time especially on long days it would really bum me out.

Interesting to hear how everyone makes it work. @lawbee11: I'm hopeful that I may actually be able to leave a bit early on these days because my gym is so close to work, so that may be a bonus. I didn't think I'd have such a hard time meeting my own needs as a parent but I find it tough to change the routine for DH and LO, even when I know it's the right thing for myself. Smurfette on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121904 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:56:52 +0000 Smurfette 2121904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When DH is home sometimes I don't see her before I leave if she is still sleeping. When he is traveling I see her but for like 10 mins to get her dressed and to school. lawbee11 on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121887 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:42:19 +0000 lawbee11 2121887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't see her during the week in the morning because I leave for work around 6:45/7 and she wakes up around 7:30. It's worth it to me to go in early and get off early so I have a good chunk of time with her in the evenings. DillonLion on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121878 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:32:08 +0000 DillonLion 2121878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I miss AM sometimes, but DH and I usually commute together. On days that we don't we alternate who does morning drop off and who does pick up. If I'm not dropping her in the morning then she is still asleep when I leave. DH can go in later if he wants so if we don't ride together, he and LO both sleep in. Evenings are rare. We toggle who works out but it never encompasses the entire evening. mrsjyw on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121873 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:29:13 +0000 mrsjyw 2121873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep almost always unless I have an early mtg in office or my once monthly happy hour w coworkers! Dh has a handful of mornings or nights he misses due to his schedule. With workouts, I try to squeeze in time between heading to work to see him or miss seeing him. I haven't worked out in the am in forever, but I think two mornings a week isn't bad and will def look into it after ds#2 is here! Good luck mama MrsF on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121856 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:22:57 +0000 MrsF 2121856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I only work 2 days / week but it's long days and with my long commute I'm gone almost 16 hours. I don't see the kids at all on those days (unless the baby is up overnight to nurse). It's definitely sad, but it means I get to spend the other days with them, so it's worth it for me. There are so many hard choices as moms :heart: Revel on "Do you see LO every morning and evening?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-see-lo-every-morning-and-evening#post-2121852 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 20:20:47 +0000 Revel 2121852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm getting a schedule together to finally get back to regularly working out, and it will mean not seeing LO two mornings a week. We don't usually have "quality" time then, but I will miss seeing her in the AM on those days. Does anyone else regularly miss morning or evening time with LO?
