Does your significant other get up with the kids and let you sleep in?

Question

Answer

Unless I’m sick, my husband rarely gets up with the kids on the weekends.  He wakes up at 5 every weekday and I get to sleep in until about 7 so the least I can do is let him sleep on the weekends 🤷🏻‍♀️ I stay home with the kids so I probably get more sleep than he does anyway.

Answer

NOT THE FIRST FUCKING TIME.,

Answer

On weekends when he doesn’t work

Answer

Every. Single. Day. They get up between 530-630, and I get up at 730. It's my only  'splurge' and he willingly and lovingly does it. They are both morning people. And I'm not (son is 2)

Answer

Yes, absolutely.👌🏾 We get up really early on Saturdays, most of the time, to run. However, when we get back and take a shower, I go back to sleep and sleep as long as I want. When our daughter was really young, my husband would get up with her ALL the time on Saturdays and let me sleep in.👌🏾Of course, I still had to wake up to pump (breastfeeding mom's know lol), but I could go right back to sleep. He still to this day allows me to sleep in on Saturdays (During the off-season. He's a college football coach so he is not home a lot on Saturdays during the season). On Sundays after we eat breakfast and I do her hair, he will tell me "Baby, I will get her ready for church, you can just get yourself ready." Every evening when he gets home from work, I get a break.👌🏾 I either go upstairs to relax or stay downstairs and go into my office to catch up on work for my business. He also stays home with her while I go to the nail shop, beauty salon, spa, etc. Of course, we go out and do activities as a family very often and take vacations very, very, very often lol. Even when we are on vacation, he still helps take care of her and he gives me breaks. He is amazing and does not mind giving me a break AT ALL. I know, between him being a coach and owning a gym, he is tired as well. However, he understands that I need and deserve a break. He's a father, he's just doing what he is supposed to do. He helped me make her so obviously he is supposed to help take care of her. 🤷🏾‍♀️ She is OUR daughter, not just mine. We are a team and we will work as one.🤞🏾

Answer

My husband works Monday-Saturday. I do night duty every night and we all wake up at the same time in the mornings bc we both work. On Sundays my husband gets up with the baby bc it’s the only day he can do a little extra to make it easier on me.

Answer

I struggle with this. My husband works 6 days a week starting at 5am, so he only has one opportunity a week to sleep in. I figure that if he’s spending his day off doing things for himself like he sometimes does (plans with friends, jobs in town etc), then he can give me a sleep in since I’ve got no help that day. If he’s going to be at home with me that day then I’ll get our daughter up and sort her out. I find even on the days where I can “sleep in” I end up lying there awake anyway.

Answer

Not get up early but he will stay up late every night we need! I’m the morning person he’s the night owl

Answer

Get up no.  But he works overnight so he getting home when our son is waking up. So he does that.

Answer

I'm a morning person and usually up early anyways plus I'm on maternity leave for 18 months while hes working  so I'm usually up in the morning with our daughter but if it was a rough night and I'm tired he'll get up on weekends or before work he'll get her a fresh diaper and bring her back to bed to sleep with me for a bit.
