I have to wake up LO in the mornings.
My hours at work are changing so I am going to have to wake her up an hour earlier. Ugh. ( and no, not getting off any earlier!!)
-
It depends! This morning my son was all "let's wake up" at 5:45, which is not usual for him.
-
About half the time I do. I wake her to nurse if she's not up, but then FI does daycare drop off after I go to work. I hate having to wake her because she doesn't sleep at daycare.
And sorry to hear about the change to your hours, that sucks!
-
DS usually wakes up around the time we are needing to get them up and since they share a room, DS wakes DD up.
-
Sometimes she wakes up, sometimes I have to wake her up. She doesn't like being woken up (who does!?!?) What time do you have to get her up now, @dillonlion?
-
Yup! And I feel soooo bad because he looks so peaceful sleeping. Plus, he's still gets up to nurse a few times in the middle of the night so I know he's still tired.
Boo on longer work hours!!!!
-
@mediagirl: now it is 730. But it will soon be 630.
-
Always! Poor Xander usually gets woken up TWICE because I wake him up to nurse before I go to work and then put him back to sleep and then Hubs wakes him up to take him to daycare!!
-
@DillonLion: oh and sorry, I didn't mean to ignore the fact that you're working an extra hour. I remember you mentioning that and I'm sorry it's finally happening.
We get M up at 6am if she's not up before then. She goes to bed at 6:30 just so we can make sure she gets enough sleep at night. It suuucks and it means very little time with her at night. i think we could probably push it back to 7 or even 7:30 but I'M not ready for that yet.
-
@mediagirl: LOs bedtime is 8 now but we will need to move it earlier
-
never. he is always up before us. i talked to a sleep consultant about it, and she suspects it's because he is nap deprived (he doesn't sleep much at daycare). it is the current bane of my existence.
-
Not usually. But this morning my husband did. She woke up at 6:15 and I brought her into to bed to nurse her and she promptly fell right back to sleep. She was still sleeping an hour and a half later so he had to wake her up to get dressed and go to school. I think day light saving time will probably help her be up a little earlier. It's hard to wake up when it's still pitch black out!
-
5 yr old - no
2.5 yr old - yesI wake her up at 6:45 and we are out the door at 7am - she eats breakfast at school
-
@edelweiss: I am right there with you. LO wakes up WAY to early like 5:15 or 5:30. It's rough! I'm worried about the time change this weekend. That said I do get a few hours with her in the morning.
We have a babysitter, so I don't have to wake up her.
-
Sometimes i do! She's been sleeping in until 6:30 lately, and I let her sleep no later than 6:40. Every once in awhile, she wants to sleep in.
She used to get up at 5:00/5:30 pretty regularly. Ever since sleep training, her wake up got stretched out. Hallelulah.
-
Our girls wake up just before we need to get them up. I take it as a sign that they are going to bed around the right time for our schedule.
-
DH has to wake them up when he works an early shift...lots of crying on those mornings.
-
For the most part, yes. Today I was about to go in there and wake her, 615 and she was just waking up and crawling around the crib. I hate having to wake her.
-
I wish I had that problem! She always wakes in time... I am pretty flexible though so if she didn't wake by 7:30 I would wake her.
-
DH doesn't start work until noon, so luckily we get to let E sleep in as long as he wants. Otherwise I'd have to get him up at 5:30. It makes for nice weekends though because he generally sleeps in until 8:30 or 9:00.
@DillonLion: That sucks that you'll have to work extra and get up earlier
Can your husband take her to daycare?
-
Not usually. She has pretty much trained herself. She goes to bed by 6 and is usually up to nurse by 5:30. She likes to nurse A LOT in the morning still, so I build the time into my schedule for that.
-
@kiddosc: we ride together most days.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: glad your schedule works out so great
-
ugh.
depends on the day. if i have a really early AM, then I do. if not, i just go into work late, thankfully due to a flex schedule, my in-times can vary.
ds usually wakes up at 745/8 for the day. i usually get to work by 9.
-
Nope, I haven't had to do that yet! LO usually wakes right around 5:15-5:30 . . . I hand her off to Hubs at 6, and I try to leave with her by 7. I really wish she would sleep until 6 or 6:30, but only because I know she needs the sleep . . . sometimes she needs a little catnap at daycare before her afternoon nap (her classroom only has 1 nap). I am so so glad to spend time with her, but it would be better for her if she slept a little longer.
