Are you an early bird or a night owl?

DD has been waking up at 6:15am, which is KILLER for me. I go to bed around 11pm most nights- sometimes earlier, sometimes later. Every night I ask her to sleep in the next morning

So- how about you?

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

neither? i pass out at 9 and would sleep until 10am if i could but i blame it on the pregnancy

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Neither. I like the middle of the day, lol

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Both-I kind of like to get up early to have a quiet cup of tea before the day starts but I also like to wind down with a quiet cup of tea or wine once the kiddos are in bed.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Im def a morning person. When I was younger.. a night owl but now.. .I'll wake up early to start the day.

DH HATES mornigns though.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Neither really. But I can't sleep past 7-8AM and kinda always been that way. And any time after 11PM is late for me.

(Since baby/commuting to NYC though, I'd kill to sleep from 11PM to 7AM! )

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

complete night owl. I WISH DS liked to sleep in!

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Night. I hate that DS won't sleep late anymore.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Early bird, always have been. DS gets up around 5:30 and I usually pass out at night around 9.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

night owl.....I dont function (in a good mood at least) if Im up before 7:30. When DS was a baby, he was up between 5am and 5:30am like clockwork until he was about 1.5. It was TORTURE!

Luckily, DH is an early bird, so he gets up with DS most mornings, even on weekends (sometimes hes even up before him). If DS is up in the middle of the night, I have no problem taking that shift instead of early morning.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Early bird. I get up at 4:45am for work and am in bed by 9pm.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

total night owl..I cant go to bed before 11..my time to relax in front of tv or computer...my DD (2.5 yr old) sleeps 9pm-830am, my DS (13 mo) sleeps 830pm to 730 am..so I guess I can't complain! I rather them go to bed a little later and sleep in later in the morning!

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

I'm a total night owl. DD's last feeding is anywhere from 10:30 - 12:30 and then I'm up anywhere from 1-2. DD gets up to eat again anywhere from 4:30 - 6:30 AM, and we always go back to sleep until 10 or all. Is this nuts???
she's only 9 weeks old When she has a real schedule, I'll try to be more normal with her!

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Im an early bird - always have - probably always will at - at heart!

I try to get as much done in the morning - shopping, cleaning etc.....i like to chill and relax and not do too much in the evening and get to bed early - Nowwww has that happened recently with 2 kids- no way!

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Is neither an option?

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

night owl here

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

3PM is my ideal time of day. In a perfect world I'd be up for work at 8, home by 3, and in bed around 10:30. Ahhh, to dream...

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Early bird. But I really like my naps on the weekends.

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

I am a night owl go to bed between 11:30-12:30. My kids wake up between 7:45-8:30 or so

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

right now I am whatever Luce says I am

sometimes I am both

Re: Are you an early bird or a night owl?

I really don't have a preference - I adapt to whatever the situation is. On the weekdays, I'm up at 5:30 ready to face the day and I go to bed around 11-11:15.

On the weekends, I take things a little more slowly in the mornings - James has learned to sleep in on the weekends, he'll sleep until 8 or so - I'll force myself to get up and start coffee before he gets up.
