I leave the house by 7:08 am. So I'm usually up by 6am and have an hour to get ready all to myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1693074 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 11:28:37 +0000 Alivoo01 1693074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get up and ready before DS wakes up, if possible. Otherwise, it's 50/50 on his mood being good enough for me to leave him on the ground to play while I get ready. If he's in a no bueno mood, oh man... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1693048 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 11:18:10 +0000 Modern Daisy 1693048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am in underwear until lo is cleaned up from breakfast.

The screaming doesn't start off a morning very well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1693001 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:56:52 +0000 Freckles 1693001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: This morning i made the mistake of getting dressed (in silk, no less!) before LO was done eating. Well, tantrum ensues, she wants a hug and i'm fending off yogurt-granola hands off of my shirt!</p> <p>I usually get dressed while she's eating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692998 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:55:56 +0000 regberadaisy 1692998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH usually goes to get her when she wakes up. Sometimes she wants me only so I will stop getting ready and hang with her for a minute. Then she'll hang in our bed while I finish getting ready. Then either DH comes to get her dressed after taking the dog out or I will change her for the day if he isn't back yet.</p> <p>Usually DH gets her ready while I get ready.</p> <p>She's up by 6:30a and we're out the door by 7:10. DH doesn't have to be at work till 10am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692975 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:47:38 +0000 meganmp 1692975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get up when the kiddos wake up, give them some milk in bed, and then shower/get ready while they drink their milk and play in their cribs. Sometimes, I'll turn off my hairdryer and hear crying, but 9 times out of 10, things are totally fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692965 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:44:40 +0000 tinyperson 1692965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get up and put on makeup, etc. DH gets LO up and then I take her while he has a shower. I get dressed while he showers and take her down for breakfast. DH gets dressed after breakfast (I leave during breakfast). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692959 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:42:33 +0000 heartonastring 1692959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get up at 6:30, wash my face, brush my teeth, put my make up on and get dressed. Then we get DD up at 7, get her dressed, I nurse her, then we go downstairs for breakfast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692949 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:39:27 +0000 ValentineMommy 1692949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm out of the house before LO gets up.

I do a diaper change and nurse her, then pass her off to DH so I can shower and get mostly dressed. Then he showers and dresses while I get her dressed (if he hasn't already done that), and he gets her into the car seat while I do last-minute stuff. We all ride to work/daycare together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692940 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:35:58 +0000 LuLu Mom 1692940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on what time she wakes up, sometimes I am dressed before and sometimes after she wakes up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692936 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:35:11 +0000 artsyfartsy 1692936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh it varies. T is so unpredictable. I AIM to wake up at 5am and get ready completely then wake T up around 6:30, get him ready, nurse and go. This was how it was for about a month when I went back to work. But lately he's been waking at 4am or around 5:30ish or 6am to nurse so I just play it by ear. I can't establish a routine whatsoever. He'll sleep until 7 some mornings and wake for the day at 5:30 sometimes. If he's up while I'm getting ready I have to entertain him the best I can. He is only 4 months and can't entertain himself. Then he gets overtired and throws a fit and won't nurse and then I have to be late for work so I can let him sneak in a nap. OMG it sucks. </p> <p>DH is long gone to work by 4:30 so I'm on my own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692929 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:33:22 +0000 avivoca 1692929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get dressed last. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692928 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:32:49 +0000 catlady 1692928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wake when LO does and then DH and I take turns watching her while the other gets ready. Over the last couple weeks, she's been sleeping until 7 or so, so if that continues, I may try to get up earlier so I can be ready before she wakes. Before that, she was consistently waking between 5 and 6, so we didn't bother getting up before her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692926 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:31:44 +0000 californiadreams 1692926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO and I wake up around the same time. We go for a short walk, then have breakfast, brush our teeth together and then when i am ready to leave, i get dressed and do my makeup while he gets into stuff in my room (i.e., hangs out with me). So getting dressed is the last thing I do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692922 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:30:03 +0000 autumnlove 1692922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband gets dressed after the kids eat....right before they leave for daycare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692917 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:27:58 +0000 Bookish 1692917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's one of the last things I do. We don't actually wake up til she does (she's our alarm clock!), so we wake up anywhere from 5am-6am. Either way, it leaves us plenty of time, so I just walk around getting ready in my pjs until about 6:45, and we are out the door at 7:15. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692913 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:26:05 +0000 petunia354 1692913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My clothes are last. I get up and do hair/makeup before he wakes up though, or at least I try! Then he gets up, we get him dressed, get him a cup of milk and he hangs out while I get dressed right before we walk out the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692901 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:21:10 +0000 Smurfette 1692901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: Most days yes. She isn't hungry right away for the most part. Just depends on the day and what time she woke up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692876 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:07:47 +0000 Boheme 1692876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never know what time C is usually going to wake up, but he usually hangs out with me while I get ready so DH can get enough sleep. I put my clothes on last thing before I walk out the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/woh-when-do-you-get-dressed#post-1692864 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:05:39 +0000 DillonLion 1692864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dressed and ready before she wakes.
