s/o...Do you get your child(ren) as soon as they wake?

LittleMamaB

I'm just curious if what I do is "bad". The boys usually wake up at about 7am or a little after. I don't get them "up" until between 7:30-8am because they usually just play and "talk" together. Miles will put toys in Jonas' crib and take toys back to his bed to play. They laugh, they have a good time...so I sleep a little longer.

Anyone else?

I would probably do the same thing if I could, but my older dd comes right to our room and younger dd yells "mammmaaaa" & "daaaddddaaaa" until we get her.

He typically wakes around 8 but I let him play until he starts calling mommmmmmmmy! Which is usually after about 20 mins of playing.

My 3 year old just started to get up and sit in the living room.  I'll just hear him out there playing. 

My baby sleeps with me so she's bashing me over the head as soon as she's awake.  She goes from a deep sleep to wide awake and ready to go.

When DS was still in a crib, I would let him play until he started calling for me.  Now he comes in and wakes me up when he is ready.  However, we always lay on the couch first thing in the morning, so when he comes to get me, he has his pillow, blanket and monkey in hand :-)

If DD wakes up early, we have told her that she can play quietly in her room or the playroom until the clock says 8am.  Then she can come get us.  She LOVES being able to "tell time" and play on her own.

DS will wail if we don't get him within .0007 nanoseconds of waking up.

No, he plays in his room until he calls for one of us to come upstairs to get him.

We get them as soon as they wake. My younger DD is only 10mos and wakes and is hungry and ready to nurse; no playtime. When my older DD wakes she used to yell for us "Mama, Dada it's light out and I'm done sleeping!" Even at 6am Now most mornings it's "All done sleeping - POTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTY!" So must mornings we are running in there to help her out of her crib to go to the bathroom

DD lies in her bed "reading" and talking to herself for a while after she gets up.  We listen over the monitor and once she starts saying "Daddy" one of us will go in and get her.  Her room is very well babyproofed and she seems to enjoy her "alone" time.
