Now I work, or nap! Ha. It completely depends on how much work I've got to do and how poorly Chloe slept the night before.

Like you, I catch up on paying bills and chores. Once in awhile, I'm pooped enough I take a nap instead.

Why is it that guys think it's so easy to just "sleep when the baby sleeps"?! Nothing would ever get done in my household if I slept whenever the baby slept.

I get sacred naptime on weekends (not SAHM). I sit on my butt and do as much as nothing as possible.

1/2 the time I get stuff done, like run loads of laundry or make phone calls, the other 1/2 the time, I relax and watch some TV.

Our naps are only half hour at a time (she takes 4-5 per day). I spend the first 10 mins paused, waiting for her to wake up (it can take a couple of dummy reinsertions before she drifts off). Once Im satisfied it nap time for realz, I get a micro-chore in: perhaps wash the bottles, put a load of laundry in, empty the dishwasher, make a drink I won't get round to drinking! Id LOVE to nap but I feel dreadful if I let myself drop off! 20 mins nap is a killer!

You mean, other than pray she stays sleep? Play on the internet our work on any chores or projects it would be difficult to do while she is awake and wanting to be held.

Considering how rarely c naps it doesn't really exist. But when she does I prioritize what I want to get done and what will be harder to do with her awake. So usually: breakfast g(while waiting to hear if she wakes up), shower, dress, and then either chore type stuff or lay down, depending on her night sleep.

Very often she will only nap in the moby, outside. So I walk back and forth in the street behind my house for as long as she sleeps. Not exactly restful.

I WOH so on the weekends I usually just relax and watch a show with DH or edit photos on my computer and sometimes do chores if the mess is really starting to get to me. A lot of times I'll do chores while LO is awake since DH can entertain him or vice versa.

@mediagirl: lol! me too.

I'm a sahm so during nap time i do a quick clean up - toys back in the toybox, highchair cleaned, dishes in the dishwasher. Also I shower if I haven't already, get something to eat (usually something unhealthy that I don't want to share with LO) then I lie on the couch and watch TV, play on the computer and watch the video monitor for a sign that LO is about to wake up.

Rarely do they sleep at the same time if they are I clean and/or relax. Otherwise it's business as usual

I'll get some things during the morning nap and I will usually take a quick snooze and shower during the afternoon one. Then I have enough energy to run around with the kids in the afternoon and then do their dinner+bedtimes.

Nothing! LO still sleeps on me most of the time for her naps!

Always chores. UGH. Usually fold laundry or do some dishes. If I'm really lazy, I'll just watch TV the entire time. haha

Apparently I go on HB and make a ton of new threads! lol!
K usually naps for 25-35 min., but she must be tired after today's shots. I should be more productive and clean, do laundry and dishes, or take a nap myself.

I relax Sometimes I start prepping/cooking dinner if needed. Oh and wash laundry!

I usually work on my at home business stuff or surf the web. Somedays I nap if I really need it. I do most of my cleaning when LO is awake, it keeps her occupied!
