I was in grad school when I got pregnant with DS1, and a TA teaching afternoon classes. My own courses were mostly in the evenings, so I was able to sleep in just about every day. I left my grad program mid-pregnancy to teach high school, and so started waking up much earlier, so I'm more of a SS.
Now that I'm a SAHM, I wake up 7-7:30, because DS1 gets up with the sun.
This was tricky. I can't remember before DD or DS1 because my shifts always changed. Now my shift is 8-4, so I would roll out at 7 to dress and get to work, but I wake at 5 to get myself and the kids set, so I can get to work early enough to pump before my shift.
I chose 8 because I often worked at noon before Sol.
5:15 and leave the house by 5:45. With DS I have to leave by 5:30. So I will be getting up at 4:45 and DH will get up and get DS ready to go. Then take care of the dogs and get himself ready to go.
I used to get up at 7 because I could shower the night before and just eat breakfast, pack my lunch and go. Now that I can't shower whenever I want, I get up at 6 to shower/eat/gather pump parts/make bottles in the morning.

I used to get up at 4:45 so I could go to the gym for an hour before getting ready for work. I'd love it if this kid would consistently sleep until 6:30 so that I could start doing that again. My gym is at my neighborhood clubhouse, just a block away, so it's super convenient.
I'm not actually waking up when you're going to bed (because I'm already at work) but I do shift work and wake up whenever. If I'm off the day before then I get up when I wake up (usually between 8-10 before baby) and I'm up til I get home about 8 the next day. If I worked the day before also, I got up around 4pm.
Re: CP - What time did you wake up?

I used to always get up around 5:30/6 with DH so we could have breakfast together but alas those days are no more.

My commute didn't change since lo goes to daycare close to my office.
