"Mommmeeeee"...if I ignore her, she usually falls back asleep or plays in her crib for awhile. She has a blanket that has a collage of family photos on it, and I often hear her talking out loud as she looks at each picture... "JuJu (Julia) ride horsey... Daddy hug JuJu...Mommy kiss JuJu., etc." That blanket bought me 30 min more sleep on Sunday, and she's had it for months! </p> <p>If she's in the same room with me due to travel, she will say, "Mommy, wake UP!!!!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2033221 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 23:17:55 +0000 lovehoneybee 2033221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually yelling for us, but sometimes I hear him talking or singing to himself.

Today he repeatedly said "blue truck". </p> <p>Turns out his blue truck toy from the story was near his bed. </p> <p>He once woke up saying zzzz3ezizizizizz b/c he looooooves the dr. suess alphabet book and the last one is "big z little z what begins with z? a zizzerzazzerzuz as you can plainly see" and it was opened to that page.</p> <p>I guess this means he wakes me up with stream of consciousness talking??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2032512 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 13:55:41 +0000 NurseDMB 2032512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 17 months and turns on his musical soother when he wakes up, rolls around talking to himself and his stuffed animals. He loves to take his time and wake up! Sometimes he will play in there for 45 min-1 hour; which is really nice if he wakes up on the early side. He will fuss/whine when he wants to get up, but we usually go in there before that point. </p> <p>If you go in there too early after he wakes up, he will actually shake his head no at you lol.<br /> Apparently I was the same way as a toddler (still am! Hate getting out of bed. Lol) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2031537 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:49:30 +0000 Mae 2031537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wake up to her sitting in her crib babbling to her paci plushies. No idea how long she is awake before I hear her lol. She only cries in the morning if she woke up too early and can't find a paci to go back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2031500 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:11:21 +0000 shopaholic 2031500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She yells for everyone in the house. Generally in the order of: Mamamamamama!, Dadadadadadada!, gogogogogogo (dog) or Chloechloechloe (dog). It's really subtle. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2031404 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 16:53:02 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2031404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>W just gets out and finds us (this is recent, she used to just sit up and call us by our first names).</p> <p>M stands up in her crib and just giggles and plays and makes noise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2031044 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 13:45:48 +0000 Mommy Finger 2031044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS will start talking or singing to himself. But he's usually content to hang out in his crib for a while. Rarely does he scream or ask for us to get him.

Then she will start to cry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2030788 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 11:27:50 +0000 Ree723 2030788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 (2.5 yrs) can open the door to her bedroom now so we are usually woken up by little hands grabbing onto our blankets trying to pull herself onto our very high bed. DD2 (11 months) wakes up and immediately starts chatting to herself - it is very cute and she is happy to do so for a good hour or so before she starts intermittent fussing as a way of saying 'come get me!' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2030784 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 11:25:39 +0000 cascademom 2030784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO sings in his crib or talks if he drops one of his loveys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-let-you-know-theyre-awake#post-2030782 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 11:24:54 +0000 travellingbee 2030782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He screams.
