By the time I finish feeding him I am awake, and he is asleep and I know I've got about an hour to myself. That motivates me to get out of bed and have a leisurely shower, coffee, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250990 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 14:01:40 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: ah ok well i don't feel too bad now!! :) I do stuff while he sleeps too, but having an extra hour to do MORE stuff would be ideal ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250974 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:41:54 +0000 Mrsbells 250974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i wake up at 6am, my cell phone alarm wakes me up, then I nurse my baby, put her back in her crib asleep. The I go to the kitchen and prepare her bottles for day care, pump, brush my teeth, fix my hair and then wake her up, dress her up, put her in carseat and we leave for daycare </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250973 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:40:45 +0000 heffalump 250973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: I'd rather be able to sleep in! My body just won't let me. I could so easily just do this stuff during nap time. Or when DH comes home. Sleep is most important :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250971 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:37:46 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I've thought of doing that... LO doesn't get up until 8-8:30 as well but I have been so tired because we wrestle him to sleep every night and it's 10-11pm before he's down for the night. So I am always so tired. But I would love time to myself in the morning.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250955 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:29:30 +0000 blackbird 250955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>alarm goes off, i pet a couple of kitties, i brush my teeth and wash my face, get some coffee in me, put makeup on, put clothes on, head out the door. I'm at work by 6:30, so i don't mess around! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250948 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:24:22 +0000 littlebug 250948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have my morning routine down to the minute, ha ha. My alarm goes off at 5:47. I hit snooze once, and it goes off again at 5:57, which is when I get up. I go downstairs, feed the cat, and have a few minutes snuggle time with her (she's a big cuddlebug). I am in the shower by 6:10. After my shower I put on my makeup and then blowdry my hair. Then I go back upstairs to wake up Hubs and snuggle with him for about 10 minutes (he's a big cuddlebug, too). At 6:50, we both get up. I get dressed while he's in the shower, then I straighten my hair. I usually finish up around 7:15, pack my bag for the day, fill my water bottle, and we're both out the door by 7:20. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250942 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:21:11 +0000 KT326 250942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually wake up at 6am. If lo isn't awake yet I take a quick shower and get ready for work. If he wakes up then I change his diaper, nurse him and if DH is still home I will hand him over so I can get ready for work. If DH already left then I put him on his play mat and take the quickest shower ever. (Not sure how I am going to do this once he is really mobile. Right now he just scoots himself in circles). Once I'm ready I get him dressed and then get our bags ready, bottles/extra clothes for daycare, and my pump bag. Usually we are out the door by 7:30.</p> <p>Today I learned that I should wait to get lo dressed until we are ready to go. Lets just say after I picked him up to put him in his car seat I had to change both our outfits and now have to wash his play mat :/ Gotta love poop explosions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250932 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:14:11 +0000 heffalump 250932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually wake up way before I need to :( My LO doesn't wake up until about 8:30, but I'm up by 7. Gives me time to get up, dressed, and do some stuff on the computer. I do Pinterest for my MIL's business, so that's when I have time to pin, check my email, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250924 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:06:18 +0000 LuLu Mom 250924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have to shower right away if I need to get up and moving, otherwise I have a tired feeling all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250886 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 12:41:07 +0000 stargal 250886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i wake up when Pierson does, so i feed him, change him and usually try to get him to get back to sleep since hisfirst wake up call is around 6 am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250674 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:39:58 +0000 HabesBabe 250674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO starts to fidget in her bassinet/rock and play, so I scoop her into bed, snap on My Brest Friend, and nurse. Then the hubs gets up to change her.</p> <p>Depending on what time it is, we'll either go back to sleep for a couple of hours or I'll get up to pump. Of course, this will change when hubs goes back to work next week and I go back in October. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250673 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:38:46 +0000 wheres_c 250673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hit snooze a million times and then wake up 30 min before I have to be out the door.<br /> Quick Shower, Brush my teeth, Puke and then I'm out the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250672 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:38:35 +0000 kokobee 250672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>snooze, snooze, and snooze! once i get up i have my coffee and shower :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250671 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:38:23 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 250671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hit the snooze at least once before getting up. I spend about 15 minutes getting reading before I have to rush out the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250669 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:38:00 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@c.sassy: that's what he did today!! brought him to me, I nursed him back to sleep haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250664 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:35:31 +0000 mrskc 250664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hit snooze a few times before rolling out of bed then brush my teeth and start getting ready for work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250663 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:34:52 +0000 Weagle 250663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO usually wakes up about 10 minutes before DH leaves for the day. He gets her up, changes her diaper, and brings her to me in bed, where I nurse bleary eyed. LO goes back down for her morning nap about an hour after waking up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250641 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:18:30 +0000 ladyfingers 250641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nice! I usually hit snooze until the last possible second. DH works odd hours so he's usually still fast asleep but this morning he was up and about and it was kind of nice (even though I told him I missed my alone time lol). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-morning-routinehow-do-you-wake-up#post-250637 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:16:00 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband was so sweet and got up with DS this morning so I could sleep an extra hour. It was wonderful, by the time I woke up, DS was back down for his first nap. It's kinda nice having my first 1-2 hours awake without a baby... but I had a to-do list and since I just woke up during naptime - I'm too tired to do it!</p> <p>What do you do to wake up and get moving in the morning? </p>
