Only because LO is sleeping right now and I'm debating if I want to take one right now, or be lazy for a little while longer and have a shower after he goes to bed.
I'm kinda gross right? lol

When she was super little and napping 3-4 times a day I would shower when she napped. Now that she's on 1 nap I almost always showed at night after she's in bed. Occasionally I'll shower in the morning before she wakes up but I like sleeping in

I get a few glorious minutes every morning to shower while my husband watches the baby.

Usually at night but lately I've been so tired that I put it off until the morning.

I shower in the morning before LO has his first nap. He sits in the bouncy chair while I shower. Sometimes I wait for his first nap, but it's usually only 40 mins long and I like to use that time to tidy up and eat breakfast! Selfish, I know. But he's happy in the bouncy chair! (LO is 8months)

During her first nap. If we don't have plans for the day I've been known to skip it.

Usually during his first nap. If my DH isn't busy (he WAH) sometimes he will take him so I can shower. If we aren't going anywhere I usually skip a shower.

@rahlyrah: Sometimes my DH does that too! That always feels extra special cuz I feel like I can take my time!

First thing in the morning. Usually only one LO is up and DH watches her.

My mom comes over to watch LO while I work, so I usually take an extended break and shower around 10ish.

I usually shower after E goes to bed, because I like crawling into bed feeling really clean (and tbh, I think my hair looks better if I've not combed it out and slept on it wet).

After she goes down for the night. I'm otherwise I'm not guaranteed a shower before work.

I put M in her pack & play in the living room after she has her breakfast. It has a bunch of toys in it that she doesn't see the rest of the day. She plays in there for 15 minutes while I shower and get dressed. I'm glad that we got into this habit when she was very young, because she's very used to it now. It's the only time of the day that she'll tolerate being left on her own.

I do every morning - it's my one thing I kept! she goes in the PNP if she's awake, or if she's napping I shower then

I either shower in the evening, or in the morning after LO wakes up, and we shower together.

In the morning after the baby is up, unless we are going for a walk in which case I wait until the first nap when we get back.

If DH is home in the evening I grab a quick shower while he does bath. If DH is not home, I do it after LO is asleep for the night.

I take long showers b/c my hair is super thick (although it has thinned a lot during pp) so my DH has to be home to watch or I wait until after bedtime.

I shower at 5:30 in the morning on weekdays before R wakes up. On weekends I usually shower during her first nap after I walk on the treadmill.

I always shower in the morning but sometimes I do it when she's down for a nap and sometimes when she's awake. If she's awake I put her in her exercauser and drag it into the hall near the bathroom so I can talk to her. On the weekends I get to have a nice long shower while DH watches her.

In the evening bc I love the shower. It's relaxing and cleansing. I go in the evenings. If DH is home, I make him watch DS while I shower as quickly as possible because heaven forbid I wash my hair and take too long! Or I go after I put DS down.

It was rough for a while when she was under a year old. Now that she "sleeps in" past 6am, I can get up at 5:30 and get showered and ready before I wake her up at 6.
