Who or what wakes you up in the morning?... email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life2 years ago

I use to believe that i have this internal clock that goes off every morning... i would wake up at the same time everyday (but i hated waking up early in the morning)... without the use of an alarm clock.. so i was never late for school nor for work...

But nowadays... it seems that my internal clock is no longer working... this started after giving birth to my daughter... and strengthened since i don't really have a specific time of going to work... so now... my daughter is the one who wakes me up in the morning... she sleeps earlier than me... since i only get the household chores done when she is asleep...

So every morning... she lightly slaps me... or kisses my face until i open my eyes and kisser her back... and that would bet between 6:30 to 8 in the morning...

So... how about you... who or what wakes you up in the morning?...

Usually my husband wakes up earlier than me. And his behavior will wake me up sometimes. Besides, my cellphone will also wake me up twice. I set it ring in two different time and make sure I have to wake up at last.

My husband always uses my cell phone as his alarm clock... but before... he would just tell me the time that i need to wake him up... i the following day... i would wake up at that exact time... kinda weird... but that used to happen... thanks for the response...

My alarm clock has to wake me up in the morning. I am really a night person, so I tend to stay up really late at night and then sleep really late in the morning. That means if I have to wake up early, then I am in trouble! lol I can easily sleep through classes or work on accident if I don't have my alarm set. When I am with my husband (we don't get to be together much because of his career and my college), then he always wakes up much earlier than me, so sometimes I will hear him and wake up also.

For single individuals... the alarm clock is the most common wake up call... but for married ones... it is the partner's movement in the morning... which i think is okay... we cannot always linger in bed longer than we have to... thanks for the response...

Hello aseretdd,

I depended a lot on my alarm clock before but now, like you, I have a better choice. My baby son will wake me up every morning. So, I haven't had a single chance to be late for work happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life  2 years ago

I actually do not like the sound of any alarms clock... so i am glad that my husband uses the cell phone with a nicer song tune to wake him up in the morning... and like you... i prefer my baby as my morning waker... thanks for the response...

How nice to be woken by a kiss! I used to set my alarm when I had to go out to work every day. I nearly always used to wake up before the alarm went off.

Now I work at home I can get up any time I want, but I wake up at dawn. Usually the first light of day wakes me up and makes me want to get up. That means I am up much earlier in the summer than in winter, when it does not get light until about 8 a.m. In summer I can be working at my computer at 6 a.m.

I think it is also nice to have sunlight as a sort of alarm clock... you are first person i know to do that... some people prefer to have their room at the sunset side because they don't want the first rays of sunlight to bother their sleep... thanks for the response...

I usually wake on my own. I tend to sleep late if nothing wakes me. I remember those days when my daughter was younger and I would open one eye and see two staring at me....lol. I find I can sleep anywhere, at any time. I think it comes from working swing shift and late shift for so many years. My daughter is now twelve and gets mad because I can sleep in and she can't. She wakes by 8:00 every morning no matter what time she goes to bed.

You are lucky... it is so difficult for me to sleep if i am not in my bed... i envy people like you... since i don't get any sleep everytime i travel... seeing the eyes of your daughter first thing when you wake up must be very nice... thanks for the response...

I'm not very good with waking up in the morning without having someone or something wake me up at least at the time that I need to wake up at least. Usually I need an alarm or someone calling me. When I'm at school I either use the alarm clock or the alarm on my cellphone. Other times I just have someone wake me up or wake up on my own when I've had enough sleep.


myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life  2 years ago

You must be a deep sleeper... someone who does not wake up easily... but i heard that people like you get that enough of that much needed rest rather than those who are light sleepers... but as long as you are not late for school or work... then keep using that alarm clock... thanks for the response...

Sometimes I stay up late working on the computer or watching an old movie, lol, and do not wake up in the morning. Then it is the sunlight that wakes me in the afternoon. Usually if there is something I have to (or want to) do the next day, I pop awake with the thought in my head that it is time to get started. Not long ago we had to wake up early (7 a.m. used to be late but it is early to us now that we are retired) and we had both fogotten how to set our alarm clocks. No problem, as my new cell phone has a wake-up call feature. Too kewl.


myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life  2 years ago

I hate the sound of alarm clocks... isn't it nice not worrying about waking late or being late... i love that kind of life that we have now... but i know it will be shortlived since my daughter will be going to school... then we would have to wake up very early... thanks for the response...

my daughter makes me stand up everytime she wakes up and most of the time, at 5am!! shes a special child thats why i cant afford not to follow her immediately coz she would turn on the tv that early and place it to maximum volume hehehe


myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life  2 years ago

Oh my... that is too early... my daughter would sometimes wake up at that time... but since she would see that it is still dark... she will just go back to sleep... i hope by now you are already used to waking up that early... thanks for the response...

My wife happens to be my very reliable alarm clock. She is a school teacher, so has to wake up for school around 5.45am each weekday. After she washes up, she will wake me on the dot of 6am. Then I will join her at the breakfast table, have breakfast and see her off to work. She will always tap me on my leg to wake me, and when that fails, she will tickle my tummy. Let me tell you, that is very effective...LOL. So my waking up each morning is like clockwork.


myLot reputation of 98/100. aseretdd (6857)   ranked 113 out of 38,325 in life  2 years ago

I used to be a teachear and i woke up just as the same time as your wife... after i take the shower... i would then wake up my husband and tell him that it was his turn... since he is also a teacher... but we thought in a different schools... thnaks for the response...

Thanks so much for your vote. So have you gotten your internal alarm clock working again, or you are still depending on your daughter to act as one for you?
