When DS was a baby he used to wake up fairly happy, but as he got older, he increasingly woke up cranky - only after his daytime naps. After about the age of 1 - until at least 3yo he would wake up from his daytime naps cranky, crying, clingy and just really out of sorts, and would stay that way for a good 30min to an hour, sometimes longer. (He has since been diagnosed with ASD, so I wonder if it was some sort of sensory issue for him, as he really did not cope with it at times.)
DD is happy when she wakes. Can rarely remember her waking up crying and cranky, would be less than a handful of times.
DS every time, without fail, screams the house down when he wakes up. But as soon as I walk into the room he's fine. Sometimes wish he'd be happy to play in his cot for a little while, but I can't have everything
DS2 wakes up happy. He kicks and talks to himself when he wakes up.
When DS1 was a baby I think he woke up alright. He wasn't as happy as DS2 is when he wakes though.
Generally... crying a handful of time she'll wake with a squeal and maybe even a laugh... once... but mostly crying. And you'd think it can only get better from there? If only (yeah, bit of a bad day lol)
