Wakeup time varies since she's still so young, but some mornings we hand her straight off to my mom while we get ready for work and get Wagon Jr. fed and ready for daycare.

As soon as we get home, we pretty much say hi to her and start her bedtime routine immediately (bath, nursing or bottle). A little sad, but I only work 3 days a week so I do spend a lot of time with her the other 4 days a week.

I work from home 3 days a week and I get off at 3 and I could pick her up by 3:15 but I don't anymore. I would love the extra time with her but I need to catch up on stuff like prepping dinner, grocery shopping , cleaning around the house, nap time (lately) or some exercise before I get her. I can pick her up as late as 6 but I usually get her around 4 or 4:30.

She usually goes to bed around 8...so we get 3.5 to 4 hours of awake time.

we wake her up for a feeding at 6, then put h er back in her crib wand wake her up again at 7 get her dressed and put her in the car.
I pick her up around 5.30 but she doesnt go to bed until around 10pm. so I get atleats 6-7 hours with her, althoughs she naps in the evening. but I usually hold her in my arms when she naps in the evening because I missed her all day

@Mrsbells: I do the same with holding LO in my arms in the evening while she sleeps. We are usually all home by 5:30, we do bath at 7 followed by a bottle, and LO falls asleep between 8-9pm; and I hold her until at least then. In the am, we get at least an hour together, usually more like 1.5-2 hours.

Ugh. Like an hour in the morning and lately only 30 minutes in the evening, since she's pushed her bedtime up to 6:15/6:30pm. Right now it's only 3 days a week (I'm home the other 4 days), but it's still miserable.

LO starts daycare in January but we have a nanny now. I'm sure I will get less time with LO once she's in daycare. Right now I get an hour in the morning and about 2.5-3 hours at night, for a total of 4-5 hours with LO. It's so not enough!

this always makes me a little sad, thinking how little time we get to spend with LO during the weekday, which is about 2-3 hours per day.
