When left to their own schedules (no alarms, no getting out of the house to appointments or daycare), what time do your babies wake up at?
DD4 just turned 9 months old and she likes to start early, around 6 am. Brutal.
DD3 is 2.5 years old and she usually wakes up around 6:30-7.

Six AM.
Early risers, like their mama.

Both of my kids have always woken up by 6am. Sometimes 5:30am. No matter how late they go to bed. Always up by 6am. No alarm clock needed. I used to be a night owl. Now I must be a morning person. Coffee is my best friend.

Both my nieces wake up between 9-10. None of us are morning people so it is perfect. Next year my sister will have to adjust that for preschool. She is not looking forward to it. Lol.

DS was sometime around 7. DD2 was between 8:30 and 9. She also went to bed at 8:30 pm and never woke up in the middle night. She started that at 3 months old. Twelve hours of sleep. I was a happy mama since she was my third and I was busy with my older two. She was the best baby ever!

830-9 was the norm for both of my girls until they started school - on the flip side, they stayed UP late, none of this going to sleep at 630-730pm even as infants/toddlers.
Annabelle reverted to her natural schedule over the summer and I'm dreading the move back to school-year schedules we need to start easing towards - bed at 730 (instead of 9-930) and up at 545 (instead of 830-9)

When mine were in the toddler stage they matched the Sun. In the summer that meant some loooooong days. As babies they usually woke around 7:00.
Now, I'm lucky if I see my teens before noon. Getting back on a school schedule is going to be brutal for them.

My 4.75 year old likes to sleep in. She's usually up by 7:30, but she has been known to sleep until 8-9.
My 3.75 year old wakes up too damn early. He gets up anywhere between 5:30-6:30. I hate it when he gets up at 5:30.
My 18 month old gets up between 7:30 and 9:00. Depends on the day and how tired he is.

The crack of dawn.
Both kids. At all ages.
My 4 year old can sometimes be convinced to come cuddle in our bed when he first gets up (Which can be any time after 5am), but if it's after 6am, forget it....he's up. And the 11 year old gets up with the sun as well.
Nothing changes it. I can run their little legs off all day, put them to bed later, give a nap, don't give a nap...they still wake up any time from 6am on.

Both boys (3.5 years old and 10 months) are up at 5.30am. And not just awake and snoozing, no, they're more like: "hi, MUM, I'm awake, I want to go downstairs, and eat a sandwich. Can I watch Umizoomi? Can I have chocolate milk? Muuuuuuuum, I have to pee. Can we go downstairs? Where's my bunny? Is daddy awake? Daddy are you awake? Here let me pull your hair to see if you're awake. Can I play games on your phone? I'm hungry. I'm thirsty. Muuuum, he's pulling my hair. Stop it! Whaaaaaaa, my hair hurts. Muuuuum, wake up!" Which means I've been exhausted for about 4 years now |

My 13yo special needs DSD between 6 and 8, she wakes up with the classic "Liesbeth, I need to go to the bathroom". After that she likes to cuddle and I am lucky to keep her next to me for an hour.
My 11yo DSD between 7 and 10 in weekends and vacations.

My kiddos (DS 4yo, DD almost 2) like to wake up early...around 6! But the 2 days a week they go to daycare, I have to drag them out of bed at 6...go figure. It also doesn't matter how late they stay up, if they had a nap, etc.
