Usually he's crying and it takes him a few minutes to snap out of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1359739 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 15:03:46 +0000 snickers 1359739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 6 months and if he is ready to wake up he is always happy, we hear coos and babbling coming from his crib. If he wakes in the middle of the night &amp; just needs to be resettled (not a feed) then he will grizzle but go straight back to sleep if we pat his back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341613 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:11:08 +0000 NovBaby1112 1341613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M wakes up happy if she wakes up past 7am and went to bed at her normal time. If she goes to bed late and wakes up before 7, she cries upon waking up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341608 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:09:44 +0000 Corduroy 1341608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You're not alone. LO ALWAYS wakes up screaming. In the crib (when I can get her down), in the ergo, in my arms, on the boob. LO is never happy to wake up. </p> <p>She also screams when falling asleep if we're not nursing. She can be perfectly content in the stroller or ergo she will start moaning or screaming before she falls asleep. She just has to fight it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341591 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:04:07 +0000 Smurfette 1341591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She wakes up happy most days. But when we leave her in the crib cause she woke up early, she gets pissed after about 30 mins, but partially cause she is still tired. This morning was rough. Fat crocodile tears during her diaper change and getting her dressed.<br /> Naps usually happy but tears when she wakes up and still tired but won't go back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341575 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:00:35 +0000 Mommy Finger 1341575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If he wakes up on his own, he's great. If I have to wake him up (for daycare), it's hit or miss </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341558 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:56:33 +0000 cascademom 1341558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say about 80% of the time he wakes up happy in the morning. This morning wasn't one of them. He tried to climb back into the crib to sleep more. He tried to climb up the changing table too. Usually, I can distract him enough to make getting ready enjoyable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341551 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:54:58 +0000 lawbee11 1341551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She almost always wakes up happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341538 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:52:22 +0000 Modern Daisy 1341538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's hit or miss for me. LO is 4.5 months old and as long as he sleeps well and for long enough he'll wake up happy, but sometimes for no reason he'll be fussy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341532 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:51:49 +0000 Boheme 1341532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wakes up happy from naps and when he's up for the day, but MOTN wakings he is NOT a happy camper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341520 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:49:37 +0000 Alivoo01 1341520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is almost 6 months and he always wakes up fussy/crying until I go in and pick him up. However, if I wake him up, 95% of the time, he'll wake up happy. I hope one day, he'll wake up happy most of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341417 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:27:11 +0000 irene 1341417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted 2 options (it is available lol) because it is a hit or miss for us but he is usually happy. If he is not then I'd be scared because it usually means he might have caught a virus or something. But he is older now, almost 2. Back when he was a baby, he always woke up crying for milk.... but still, he tends to be on the happy side (or that's how I remembered...)</p> <p>Hang in there, it is going to get brighter :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341397 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:24:45 +0000 illumina 1341397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, she wakes up happy mostly. If she isn't, then I know I've probably disturbed her during a sleep cycle, not realising she is about to go back to sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341391 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:23:45 +0000 lilyann 1341391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could've written your post about my DS when he was that age! It was no fun in the mornings. I want to say he grew out of it around 12-13 months, thank goodness! He is 15 months now and wakes up very happy most mornings!</p> <p>Hang in there momma!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341387 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:23:25 +0000 mrsjyw 1341387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 13.5 months now and 90% of the time he wakes up happy. In the mornings, he's usually playing by himself. </p> <p>However, this wasn't always the case. He's always been a sleeper (sttn 12+ hrs since 3 months), but there would be months here and there where he would wake up crying. It's just been in the last few months that he's consistently woken up in a "good mood." But, even before that, as soon as we got him- he was smiles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-baby-wake-up-happy#post-1341371 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 10:19:46 +0000 travellingbee 1341371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just curious. I don't feel like my LO is typical based on experience with other kids but I'm not sure. He is 10 months old and he NEVER, EVER, EVER wakes up happy. Not after a nap, in the morning, middle of the night, not if he wakes on his own or if I wake him. He ALWAYS wakes up screaming. Often he is happy a minute or so later, but never right away. He goes to sleep mad and wakes up mad. Sleep pretty much sucks in our house. :( </p>
