Success after IF

Anyone else wake up super early for "me" time?

My husband thinks I'm crazy, but even on the weekends I wake up around 4 or 5 am to have my quiet time.  I do some chores, prep dinner, take the dog for a walk, surf the web or watch TV before Henry wakes up or I head into the office.

Re: Anyone else wake up super early for "me" time?

  • Yep, me. On weekdays for sure. Then on weekends, I sleep a little later, but I still get up at least 30 minutes before Elizabeth usually does so I can drink my coffee, surf the web, watch the news, etc. I don't think I've slept past 6:30-7 a.m. since she's been born. :) I'm up at 5-5:30 on weekdays and 6-6:30 on weekends.

  • Not me, for two reasons:

    1) I'm not a morning person; I'd rather stay up late.

    2) DS has never really had a consistent wake-up time.

  • On the weekdays I do. I like to get up early, shower, and get ready for work before the kids are up. Then I will surf the net or watch the news until they wake up.

    On the weekends I usually sleep until the kids get up though. I need a little sleep sometimes!! :o)

  • I'm not a morning person. I actually do the opposite. I stay up late (Matt doesn't go to bed until 9pm..he will NOT go down any earlier. So I end up staying up until after midnight so I can have some me time).

  • Far from it (though Elena still wakes multiple times overnight!), but I do stay up late for the same reason.  I'm usually right here online, getting through e-mails, etc. :)

    I get up 30 min to and hour before my girls for the exact same reasons. To have my coffee, check my emails, blogs, and just have some time to myself before the craziness of the day takes over.

  • I don't wake up early but I stay up later when I can.  Ben goes to bed around 9:30 so I stay up to 11:00 while I'm working.  Now, that I'm off for the summer (I'm a teacher), I usually don't go to bed until around 1:00 or 1:30 AM.  Thankfully, since Ben goes to bed late, he'll sleep till 8:30.

    I get up at 6am most weekdays (my kids are up between 7-8am) to shower, dress and hopefully grab a cup of coffee in silence before the rest of the house wakes up. No way would I wake up at 4am, though!!!!!!!!!!!!!
