Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I shower at night after I've had dinner and pulled everything together for the following day - I feel better washing the city commute off my body anyway.

Shower at night - that way you are not going to be stressed in the morning if the little guy doesnt wake up on time - less stress the better at that hour of the morning.

I shower in the morning...usually either Katelyn is still sleeping or she watches the Wiggles with her cup of milk.

At night before I go to bed. I hate it.

Ali -
what about getting up at 6am before Jacen gets up? Or let him play in the crib with his mobile on to amuse him for a few minutes?
I don't work f/t, but when its time for me to shower that's what I do with Lexie and it seems to help me get ready.
Hth..

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I usually get up before DD is awake and jump in the shower. If I know that I have a particular hectic morning ahead, I will shower the night before, but I like to start the day with a shower...

Yeah i can get up at 5:45am (Chat Icon anything before 6 seems too early! Chat Icon) to shower and then finish getting ready while i turn on the mobile (that always buys me 10 minutes).

But i'm just worried about what if he doesn't wake up at his normal time. I know some people shower after the baby gets up, so i was just curious as to how that works.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I shower at night when I have to take her to my mother in laws the next day but if DH is the one taking her to my moms then I shower in the morning.
But for the most part its alot easier to shower at night.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

We wake at 5:30 and I shower first while DH shaves and makes the bed (Chat Icon ). When I get out of the shower he gets in and I finish up (brush teeth and start to get dressed) Somewhere around 6/6:30 Lucas wakes and I go in to get him and dress him.

So we get up and shower before he wakes on weekdays. Weekends we usually all wake at the same time (he wakes us), eat breakfast and get washed up to start our day.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

up until about 6 months old, ds went in the bouncy seat when we showered.

then one day we found him crawling around with the bouncy seat on his back, like a turtle Chat Icon

now we put him in his exersaucer. as he starts to outgrow that (he is 11 months), we'll have to find some other way of containing him Chat Icon

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

Usually I try to take a shower at night while DH is putting DD to bed or right after she goes to sleep. If I can't take one at night I will put her in the Exersaucer or Pack and Play and take a quick shower. Usually if I put on Elmo she's ok for 15 or so mins.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I get up before DD and try to finish getting ready before she wakes up. Sometimes I don't get to put my clothes on before she wakes up. But as long as I can shower, put my makeup on and blow dry my hair b4 she gets up, I am good to go!!

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I used to shower at night, but I couldn't "wake up" in the morning without the shower. I just wake up a little earlier - it is easier now that I stopped BFing.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

When the boys were 4months till about a 1, I showered at night after they went to bed. That way all i had to do was wash my face, put on clothes, makeup, etc. in the morning. Then i started getting up earlier and showering in the morning. Now my boys just sit in their cribs and wait for me so i get up later and shower in the morning.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

I usually shower before bed. I have curly hair so I shower, put product in my hair, twist it into a ponytail and sleep on it.

When the boys were infants with unpredictable schedules, I would bring the seat in the bathroom and shower with them there.

Re: FT working moms... when do you shower?

Most of the time I shower in the morning. I'll shower at night, if I have an early meeting or if DH has an early court appointment.

When the kids were younger, I showered at night more but now it's a little easier.
