DH and I struggle with this-- we both sleep late (11/12) and depending on the day are up anywhere from 6-8. It's not so bad on the 8am days and thankfully is a good sleeper, but it's a struggle the nights that we don't get a solid 7/8 hours of sleep.

We always say that we'll go to bed early, but then get a second wind that keeps us up until our usual late bedtime!

Not me, but my DH seriously struggles with this. He doesn't fall asleep til 1 or 2 am and then sleeps til 9am--totally not a kid friendly schedule. He's been off work for a few months but is starting again in Feb which will hopefully get him back in a good schedule. How did you readjust your sleep habits?

I'm the opposite. I struggle with the late night shit because I'm an early to bed, early to rise kind of gal.

I love being up late. I just feel free, late at night, less pressure. Anyhow, LO is up anytime from 4 am to 6 if I am lucky - no matter when she goes to bed. I stay up late on a weekend every once in awhile because I know dh will be there in the morning but definitely not during the week! He works at 6am out of town so I am on my own! mmm coffee.

I'm still pregnant, but DH and I aren't looking forward to adjusting our schedules. I've always been a night owl, but we also have night jobs at a restaurant and frequently I'm picking up DH at the subway station at 1:00am so it's hard to get to bed before 2:00 or 3:00. I think once I get back to work I'll have to switch over to day shifts so we don't have to pay for daycare, but it will be tough for me.
