For my job I've been having to get up at 5:30am every morning. Over the last three weeks my body has adjusted to waking up early- it's Saturday morning my child and husband are still asleep at 7am and I'm awake. Boo!! This has happened every weekend. And my hubby even told me he'd get up with J for me! I hate that I "adjusted" to my new schedule... 
Can you sleep in if you normally wake early?

Nope. Even if LO sleeps til 7:45/8:00 (very rare!) I'm usually still up by 7:15/7:30. But it's still nice waking up on my own rather than being woken up!
I also wish I could nap, but sadly, I'm never able to fall asleep...

Sleeping in is 7am for me. It is a wonderful treat when I get to sleep that long! My job (aka my 13 month old) often wakes me up around 6:15 or so, and on Saturday when DH gets the kids up, DS always always ALWAYS makes it to 7 am. grrrrr
I can't make it past 7 am if I wanted to.

Awww, I'm sorry! I've been working a 6am shift for over ten years so I wake up early and I rarely sleep in.

Nope DH hates it, but I just can't sleep in unless I'm sick. I was up before 7am this morning. I blame my mom lol, she would never let us sleep in, even on weekends or holidays, so it's just sort of ingrained into me. At least I got some chores done already!

Nope...we're up before 7 on weekends on our own. It's crazy...we laugh at ourselves all the time about it.

When I was on an early wake up work schedule I couldn't sleep in. This was pre-baby so it drove DH nuts because in turn I was ready to go do things at 8am and he was still in bed.

DH is a naturally early riser. He was out the door at 6:30 this morning to go to the gym....on a Saturday. And some of that has rubbed off on me. Sleeping in for me = sleeping until 7:30.

Nope. I get up at 5:30/6 every morning (sometimes earlier)...and ALWAYS before my LO and DH. I lie in bed until 7 or later usually!

I also wake up at 5:30 on weekdays but on weekends I can still sleep until nine or so. I think it's probably because I'm a night person and have a really hard time getting enough sleep on weekdays when I have to wake up early so I don't know if that's a good thing! Are you still going to bed early on Fridays and Saturdays?

But it is so nice to have a quiet hour to yourself! Enjoy, Put some laundry in, go for a run, surf the net, make some coffee and enjoy the silence

I keep hoping that I will just start waking earlier and it never happens! lol! I'd much rather happily wake up at 6am so I can go to the gym etc in the morning but I'm soooo lazy in the mornings :S

I could physically sleep in if I was allowed to but that's just because I'm absolutely exhausted between my 14 month old and my 5 week old...

That stinks!! This morning my Lo slept past 7, unheard of, so of course the dog saw fit to wake me... Ugh!

Aww sorry...
FIL woke us with an 8.30 phone call despite me telling him last night that we were going to try to sleep in and don't call before 9:30.
I posted a passive aggressive fb post, but then deleted shortly after. I don't want to cause family world war 3 before the baptism tomorrow but he really annoyed me. My mom followed the instructions, why can't he?
SO never calls him out on anything. Ever.
