    Nowadays at the age of 44, I'd call 9.30 a lie-in.

    When I was 15 it'd been anything past 1pm.

    You have to have 2 royal P.I.T.A's before you get a golden child who sleeps 6 hour stretches from birth and 12 hours through the night from 6 weeks. :D

    #2 nearly got posted out the window at 6 weeks due to him waking every 1.5 hours for another feed.

    So I'm overdue one then..DS can go days without closing his eyes(sleep disorder) and DD1 and DD2 are up at the crack of dawn no matter how late they go to bed.DD1 was prem,was hourly tube fed which nearly finished me off,still pump fed now but we get a "bit" more sleep.Hubby literally cannot function on anything less than 8 hours a night so no point asking him to get up in the night..luckily I don't need much.Am 24 wks preg with 4th baby ...is it too late to put my order in for the golden child you mentioned???:p

  • 6 days a week it's between 5.45 - 6.45am. Saturday is my only day to lay in, as I work, so I normally don't get up until about 9-10am, unless we have something planned!

    Lol... well if it doesnt I am NOT swapping!

    Funny thing is I slept 12-14 hours a night as a baby and my children have been pretty good on the whole.. My sister never slept and her daughter doesnt either.. Though neither my XH nor OH slept through until they were about 3..

    I don't want a lie in... I want an unbroken night's sleep when my 1 yr old decides she will sleep through the night!

    Oh I so remember my son was 9 months old and he slept first time 9pm to 7am, the first night was wasted on me because I kept waking up to check on him because he had missed his feeds:rotfl::rotfl: once I realised he had changed his clock and feed times oh the bliss, I used to go to bed at 9pm with him sometimes:D

    Anything past 1pm is a lie in for me.
  • I'm up at 6 every morning, even on holiday!! I like the peace and quiet before my girls get up and war breaks out!! I sit in my arbour and have a lovely cup of tea and do some things round the house. Mind you I have a little siesta in the afternoon between 2-3. It must be the Spanish in me:D
