We would probably alternate, that’s what we used to do on weekends.

Def alternate whoever sleeps and have have whoever slept in do breakfast, if my man is gonna wake me up or not let me sleep in he’s buying or making me breakfast haha 😂

I'm a full time stay at home mom and my husband only gets one day off a week. He sleeps in because he gets up at 6 am every day except Sunday. I sleep in with our daughter until about 8 every morning and sometimes take naps with her. So I get sleep.

This question doesn't make any sense ... 🤔 Someone please help me. For us if we can we will sleep longer both of us if not one will wake up, the one who needs more sleep, will sleep. We can usually work out who needs the sleep more. As it's the working parent's only day off to sleep in, if they need to sleep in, then I think they should be allowed to sleep in...

Depends what time the working parent has to wake up and what time SAHP has to wake up.

It all depends. My husband and I are very different when it comes to sleep. He loves waking up early and I’m a sleepy head so on days he is home I sleep in a bit, I’m still up by 8:30 lol

We both work but I'm the one who always gets up in the morning with the kids. Exception is when the kids are having an off night and I'm up for hours overnight with them. Then I wake my husband and he'll take mornings so I can catch up on some sleep

I honestly would say alternate. I’m a stay at home mom but I also wfh so I’m dealing with a toddler, pregnancy, and angry customers at my job all day. My bf sits on his ass all day at work on his phone (he does security) so for me I always sleep in

When I was a stay at home mother, I usually let my husband sleep in because I know he’s tired. I probably be tired too but I can take naps when he’s awake and he look after our child. We both work now and I’m pregnant with baby #2. When I have my weekends off from work, I get to sleep in a bit until our 5 year old wakes up and ask for breakfast. My husband on the other hand will sleep in for work. It depends though as our work schedule is complete opposite. He works Tuesday through Saturday. My work schedule alternate every week. Our 5 year old also goes to preschool so, we both don’t necessarily get to sleep in very much long. I’m going back to being a stay at home mother after giving birth in December and maternity leave is over.

Oops accidentally selected. Alternate yes, or whoever needs more at the time. Share the battery..

Alternate x

I always let my partner sleep in (I feel like it’s taken for granted or like it warranted-like I have too) but sometimes It would be nice to get to sleep in too! As for my toddler wakes up as early as 6AM

No one 😂 over here we both get up as soon as baby is up. We let each other sleep in as a reward that we have a “silent agreement”. Lets say my husband gets home and attack a bunch of house chores, next morning I let him sleep in as much as he wants. My husband lets me sleep in if baby wakes up in the middle of the night, if I had a hard day with baby, or if I was up until late doing our finances/chores.
