Should I wake him up?

Me and DH take in turns with lie ins on the weekend while the other gets up with DD. He has Saturdays, I have Sundays. He is usually up by now but I’ve just been up and he’s still snoring away. We have nothing planned until lunchtime but there are things we could do with getting done, is 9:30 a long enough lie in? Should I wake him up or is it a bit mean when we don’t actually have to be anywhere. It may be worth noting that he’s never woke me up on my Sunday lie ins unless we have needed to be somewhere but a lie in for me is 8am and I’m awake!

No don’t wake him!

Why would you?

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 13/04/2019 09:39

Why??

Leave him be! You wouldn't be impressed if he woke you because there were "things you could be doing".

You've made an agreement between you that Saturday is his lie in day.

sawyershair Mainly as I want a shower and to get on with the day but dd is a clingy 5 mo and if I leave her for me to shower she’ll scream the house down and wake him anyway!

If he doesn't wake you up then leave him alone. It's not his fault if you don't sleep past 8am, there may come a day when you really need the extra sleep.

Ok ok I’ll stick it out a bit longer! Yeah he prob wouldn’t be too happy but I can guarantee when he wakes up of his own accord he’ll tell me I shouldn’t have let him sleep so long so I’ll be damned if i do and damned if I don’t!
