[quote=Anonymous]We alternate but the situation is very different. We have one child who is 6, almost 7. We have always done the rotation but with one it is far easier. The parent who is sleeping in can pretty much take the whole morning. DH sleeps in and plays tennis, he has league play or a ladder group, on Sunday. So I have DS until about 1 on my own. I don't sleep in as long as DH does, I am normally up by 7:30 or 8. But I stay in bed and read or play some games on my iPad until 9 or so. If DS has a game in the AM, I'll get up and go.

We also have an understanding that I get to nap on Saturday and Sunday if I want to. I need more sleep then DH and DS really likes it when I am up with him in the mornings. DH has morning duty during the week, I go to work early so I can pick up from school, and DS knows that I don't think it is a problem to make waffles or eggs before school which my DH is far less likely to do. DS has a tendency to visit for a morning snuggle while DH is in the bathroom on my sleep in day.  So I get naps. [/quote]
