Are we letting dads sleeping or nah?

Its rare when my husband and I are both home in the mornings as we work opposite days but we both had the day after Christmas off and I let him sleep and finally woke him up start 9:15. Dad's get run down too. When we worked the same days I'd let him sleep in a day off and then id get to sleep in the next day.

Depends what we’ve agreed on. If it’s his morning for a lie in then absolutely. If we’re doing something together then she can go wake him up. Or if it’s my lie in he’s booted out of bed when she’s up 😄

Depends....im definitely letting my girl wake him up too

But if he worked overtime which is night shift.....I will give him some time to rest for sure

Usually I just let him sleep cos he struggles to come round early/is not a morning person and I'm awake anyway so I wouldn't be going back to sleep.

We then go wake him after a couple of hours and when he comes down, has eaten etc he takes over for a bit.

Yes, I always let him sleep as long as he wants. Sometimes if he’s still asleep after like 8:30/9am we’ll go in and wake him up but it’s rare

Depends, my husband plays ice hocky on Sundays and generally doesnt get home and into bed until 1am on Monday morning then up at 6 to leave for work, so I try and let him get as much sleep as possible on Sunday mornings, Saturdays are my lay in mornings. Weekdays my husband leaves for work before my toddler has even woken up

He always sleeps in, but I always nap

I always just let him sleep as long as wants. He normally will get up fairly early but occasionally will sleep in. Sometimes I resent it tbh but anytime I’ve woken him early, he’s gotten in a terrible mood and it’s ended in a fight so it’s just not worth it. He’s a good dad otherwise so I let it pass. lol

It depends. If my husband worked a 9-5 job I’d make him get up at least half the time. My husband works swing shifts and gets home super late or gets up very early. Plus he works a dangerous job so I feel I need to let him sleep. I guess it depends on the circumstances.

My husband and I both always wake up around 7 am to our toddler and 5 month old talking/babbling. Even when I was a sahm he never complained about waking up. Our toddler loves daddy time in the morning since I’m usually busy with the baby. Both sleep through the night though so it’s not like either of us are not getting a good nights sleep.

My partner is a farmer and out the door every morning by 8am and not home till after bed time 7 days a week (unless we book something in for a few hours outing in middle of day) so he's woken up when kiddo wakes up and the 3 of us start our day together because that's their main time together and he'd rather get up and see him than sleep in and not. Our situation isn't common though

he sleeps as long as he wants bc he pays all the bills lol. even when he works at 12 some days and sleeps in until the last possible minute till 11. drives me crazy but whatever lol

Yes, every day he works he is up before everyone and wakes up our preteen for school and our toddler and I "sleep in" with the baby and wake up around 7:30ish at the latest. But he still wakes up no later than 8 on his off days so it's not crazy early like his work days

Take turns!

My husband wakes up at 4 am for work 5 days/week so when my toddler wakes up on his dads day off I go ahead take him to a different room and play with him, if my toddler wakes before 7:30. My husband always wakes up by 7:30 though, so if my son sleeps til then, we all get up together.

Parenting is 50/50. My little one generally lies in anyway but If it’s my husbands turn for a lie in and he wakes early, I will take him and vice versa

Typically on days he dosnt work my husband wakes up around 5/6 anyways so he’ll wake up with our 2 year old and let me sleep in usually til about 11.

Dad's the stay at home parent for us and I get up for half 5 for work so I'll tend to help him with them as soon as there up but on the weekend I have the lay in and he tends to go for a nap if his tired works best for us cause im always exhusted x

My husband is a trucker, when he gets home I let him sleep in our extra room and co sleep with my daughter so he can get extra rest. He gets in different times in the night and morning.

If he's working the night shifts I deffo let him get his sleep in, if I've had a bad night's sleep n th kids have kept me up then I get to sleep in... There's no hard fast rule, just empathy for whatevers going on at the time

If im up an babies are up then I will take them down stairs an I will let my partner get a lie in but I also know if me & our youngest is asleep (ebf) and our eldest wakes up then he will take her down stairs an let me sleep in till baby wakes up.

No haha. We mostly take turns, but honestly the other is up pretty soon after regardless of who unleashes the baby from the crib. Also, we only have family time on the weekends so we have always used the full days rather than tag team who is with the kids.

I’m usually sleeping in on weekends and he wakes up early for the kids. Esp on a Sat morning coz I’ve been out late that Friday night for my breaks so he let’s me sleep in, Sunday he gets a lil sleepin but we usually all get up to get ready to go market or an event on. Baby has always woken at 8-9 though he likes to sleep in himself lucky for me he was never really an early riser

I normally just let my husband sleep in. He lets me nap or hide in the room later on too.

One of us gets up early and takes a nap later in the day and the other one sleeps in. We take turns

Depends. There’s a bunch of scenarios and a lot to think about with this.

If I’m up he’s up end of story lol 😂

Fuck no I need rest too. We take turns

We both work full time and even though I carry the majority of the emotional load because my toddler is a mommas boy, why wouldn’t I let him sleep in on his days off? When he wakes up, he cooks, meal preps for me and takes my toddler somewhere I I can nap.

Maybe a lay in once a week but otherwise dad gets up with us x

Yea, my husband is an early bird though so more often he’s trying to keep them from waking me.

I guess I should’ve mentioned I’m a sahm and Saturdays when he is finally off for the week I can understand that but Sunday sir I’m feeling like you should be up too 🤔😅 he does let me nap whenever I need but that’s about it, I cook clean & anything else. & my husband is very sweet this could be an easy conversation I’m just curious what everyone else does 🥰

I’m a morning person and my husband is a night owl, I let him sleep in, and he resets the house while the rest of us are sleeping.

We take turns & always have. For instance if he's up before me he will take care of our oldest, or youngest. During the week that means if he feeds the baby then he also gets our oldest up & dressed/ fed for school. That is usually 6am. We alternate who gets up with the kids every other day. So weekend? We can sleep in & I'll do 1 day for him he does 1 for me. When it was just our oldest we operated the same. He's always been an involved dad thankfully always wanting to take the kids after work. My oldest I didn't go to work until she was almost 1, my 2nd I went back 6 weeks 💔

We get one lie in each at the weekend. I work 3 days a week and 2 days at home with toddler, husband works Monday to Friday. We tend to be up at the same time each day during the week.

Take turns. You both deserve sleep.

My child’s father gets off work late so yes I let him sleep

My baby is 4 months , her dad is a trucker . Lack of sleep means that he could fall asleep at the wheel . So I just sleep late , I can nap during the day but he cannot .

I don't exactly try to stay quiet but our little one is very respectful when it comes to people sleeping, and my partner will sleep through anything. If he wakes up he just goes right back to sleep and me and my little one go have breakfast and play in the living room

Maybe it’s a good thing I’m single because if I’m up there’s no way I’d let him sleep while I do everything myself 😂

I really just try to find a balance, if my husband is waking up at 6:00 a.m. And going to work everyday but I'm getting to sleep in until 7. :00 or whatever with the kids, yeah I'll let him sleep in. 2 hours all night, or if my kid is waking up at 5:00 in the morning during the week, Dad can get them on the weekend

Take turns

Depends. On his days off we take turns sleeping in (until like 8-8.30). If the kids wake up after 7 we’re both awake together. Or if the baby had a particularly bad night he lets me sleep in. When he’s working I try to keep the kids away from him because he’s a lorry driver and comes home late anyway, so needs the most sleep he can get. If he had a job that wasn’t so dangerous when tired, I’d probably be different.

Depends on who needs more sleep lol. He works so i normally get up with the toddler. But if im up throughout yhe night with the 4mo then its his turn with the toddler lol

My thoughts are… why have 2 tired parents when you can just have 1?
