I am either at my desk or on the train at 7, so I leave my house by 6:25 am.</p> <p>I shower and dry my hair at night. I do minimal makeup and hair straightening and I pick all outfits the weekend before. I even pack the car at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-morning-schedule#post-1467237 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:05:55 +0000 AmandaB8 1467237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a great trick! I'll definitely have to utilize that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-morning-schedule#post-1467107 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 15:30:27 +0000 lawbee11 1467107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmandaB8: I don't work as early as you, but I do leave before LO wakes up. I do as much as I can the night before (pack my lunch, assemble all my pump parts, pick out what I'm going to wear to work the next day). I also lay out an outfit for LO (my DH takes her to daycare). If you don't have a hands-free pumping bra you should definitely get one. I pump while I eat breakfast...it's all about multi-tasking. Then I do what @DillonLion: suggested--I throw my pump parts into a ziploc bag and put them in the cooler bag so that I don't have to wash them before leaving for work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-morning-schedule#post-1467080 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 15:20:07 +0000 DillonLion 1467080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ld wake up 30 mins earlier to pump. The earlyness will suck but it will be easier since You dont have to worry about getting LO ready.</p> <p>After you pump, stick all the parts in a freezer bag woth a cooler. As long as they stay cold you dont need to wash them until end of day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-morning-schedule#post-1467047 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 15:14:17 +0000 AmandaB8 1467047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone go to work super early? What's your schedule in the morning with a LO? </p> <p>I'm going back to work Monday after 8 weeks off. My shift is 6 am - 2:30, and I'm trying to figure out how everything will work! I'll have to pump in the morning since LO doesn't wake up until 6 am. DH doesn't go to work until 7:30, so he'll do childcare dropoffs, and I'll do pickups. </p> <p>It's just all so overwhelming! Yikes! Any advice? </p>
