I wake up at 6:15 and shower/get dressed. I prep bottles/pump parts the night before so just have to grab them and go in the morning. I make coffee and breakfast and put everything in the car and warm it up. Then, I wake up DD and get her dressed. Some days she nurses first, some days she doesn't. We can do it in 30 if DH gets DD up and dressed for the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1990195 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 14:49:00 +0000 blackbird 1990195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>60-90 min during the week.

I wake up at 5:05am and am out the door at 5:45am with a full face of makeup and hair done. So, 40 minutes, tops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1990066 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 13:28:48 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 1990066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My absolute minimum to leave with two kids is one hour. That means we are all fed, dressed and bags/lunches packed. Usually I have two or even three though because we like a leisurely morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1990027 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 13:07:53 +0000 jhd 1990027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to give myself at least an hour. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1990021 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 13:04:44 +0000 wrkbrk 1990021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>one hour but thats because we have four dogs to feed and give medicine to (medicine that needs to be taken with food and getting them to eat takes awhile sometimes). not ttc yet and i dont want to think about adding an infant to this mess! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1990011 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 12:57:07 +0000 meganmp 1990011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>45 minutes. 25 minutes for myself to get showed, dressed and ready, 20 minutes to get both the kids up, drink some milk, diapers changed, dressed and in the car. They eat breakfast at my mom's house, so they just have a squeezie pouch in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1989993 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 12:42:59 +0000 mrsbubbletea 1989993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am spoiled from working PM shift and starting at 3 pm (when I am not on mat leave that is!) I usually get up around 8-9ish, and don't leave until 245! It's become kind of hard when I have stuff to get to in the AMs because I am used to taking my sweet time. I don't feel too bad about it for one, because I know with my baby coming soon, everything will change with my schedule, and two, lots of my coworkers literally do nothing before work and as adults can't wake up even before 12 at the earliest, literally! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1989952 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 12:17:57 +0000 kes18 1989952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man, about 20 min haha.

This leaves about 10 minutes for "troubles" aka E not wanting to go potty/change clothes/ect. </p> <p>When new baby comes we will have to seriously adjust this as it won't be enough time for me to get myself ready + 2 kids out the door to daycare. I told DH he's going to have to help out (he's out the door around 7-7:10 so he will have to take over one of the girls and get them ready.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1989859 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:36:14 +0000 Dandelion 1989859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>An hour </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-before-you-walk-out-the-door-do-you-wake-up#post-1989847 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:30:54 +0000 Anagram 1989847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1 hour.

So we usually have 2 hours and a little extra most mornings. We use the time to have breakfast, pack lunch and get both kids ready (once they're up)... and if there's extra time, I usually do the dishes or pick up a bit.</p> <p>If I'm up late, I'll set the alarm for 7:15 and cut corners to get on track (don't shave, make a simpler breakfast, etc.). Those morning are much more stressful though.... an hour isn't enough time for us to get it all done plus pack lunch! We've tried packing lunches at night, but the kids don't eat the food as well that way...</p> <p>How many hours before you walk out the door do you wake up? </p>
