How long do you keep LO in their PJs before changing them into their outfit for the day? I keep DD in her PJs until after her morning nap, then she gets dressed. She's such an early riser that we never go outside until after she's woken from her nap, and I usually don't change myself because half of the time I take that nap with her. We were Facetiming with my grandmother this morning and she was agast that DD was still in her PJs. The horror! Photo included to prove I am the laziest mother of the year.
I guess I'm the odd one out! I change him when he gets up in the morning. Diaper change and clothes change. But... I usually stay in MY pj's for the morning, and sometimes all day. haha.

Some days she doesn't get out of her PJ's til after her first nap, it just depends on the day. I like to keep her PJ's on in the morning so if there are any breakfast stains I don't have to change her whole outfit again.
Sometimes Wy is in his jammies all day. Usually I get him up in the morning, throw on a onsie, sometimes some pants, always socks then throw him (gently place him) in the living room and we hang out. He naps around 1000 and once he get up from that I throw pants on him. Sometimes. I dont see the big deal out of it. Jammies are comfortable!

My baby is in PJs right now, and it's about 10 here.
I used to wait for her second morning poop, but now her poop schedule is all over the place, so I was doing it after she had breakfast. Then for a couple days, she's been pooping right after breakfast, so I am waiting to see if she poops in case it blows out. If she doesn't poop soon, I will probably end up changing her into regular clothes after lunch. Scandalous!
I just don't see the point of changing her into clean clothes just to have to change her again in fifteen minutes or whatever. I'd like to have a regular schedule where everything is around the same time every day, including getting dressed, but I'm not going to change her clothes a million times just because I "should." I change her no matter what if her clothes have poop, pee, spitup, dirt, food, or excessive slobber on them. She is always in something clean. That's good enough most days.
Usually the same as you. But sometimes she stays in them ALL DAY! Don't tell your grandma I stay in my Jammies all day too sometimes! I like to be comfy!
Eta: usually when I'm at home I only wear pjs or yoga pants. I HATE wearing jeans just hanging out at home
I used to change her after her first nap. Now that it's winter though her pj's are all fleece and get caked in dog hair in a hot minute so I change her into a onesie and pants as soon as we wake up. I also prefer that she have bare feet around the house while shes learning to stand and walk.

We also stay in jammies until after her morning nap. I usually get myself cleaned up and dressed while she sleeps and then get her ready for the day when she wakes up.
I usually change him right after he wakes up but not always. He wears his PJs 2 nights in a row though, since he gets a bath every other night, so I try to keep them as clean as possible.
Eta: Your grandma would love me! Lincoln has tons of Hanna pajamas that he wears as outfits
Usually until after morning nap - before that he walks to school drop off with us, and the fleece pajamas keep him warmer (plus morning and getting ready for school in general is crazy).
It is 10:11am and I am still in my PJs. S is napping and still in his PJs, he will get dressed when he wakes up. I will have a bath and get dressed soon.

Right now she is perpetually in a sleeper because it is cold and we don't run our heater. Socks are useless so we stick w/ footies unless we are going out. She doesn't do solids for breakfast so she usually stays clean until lunch.

pjs all day unless we're going somewhere. DS gets dressed as soon as he gets up. Once he started pulling up the laminate floors were too slick so he needed something without feet. He still slips and falls if he's in footed jammies or socks.

I'm not a complete SAHM but I'll answer.
We keep her in pjs until after she eats breakfast so she just gets those dirty vs a clean outfit.
We change her not only because of the food mess but because her footie pjs immobilize her. When she was crawling she crawl her legs right out of the leg holes and have her legs stuck in the belt section. Now days the legs stretch out and she trips herself walking because she steps on the opposite legs footie.

PJs all day if we don't go anywhere. If it's cold out and we're just going to the store (where he'll be in the Boba) I keep the sleeper on because it's warm. When we go to play groups or play dates I get him dressed after morning nap. Both kids go back in PJs before afternoon nap, too. DD likes to be comfy.
I usually change S fairly quickly after he gets up. But, his clothes I put him in are as comfy as his pj's. I only put jeans or nicer clothes on him if we are going somewhere like a play date or something.

The original post made me laugh. I'm not a stay at home Mom, but on weekends A is in her pj's until after her morning nap. It's more comfy for her and we never leave the house before that! I'll also put her into new clothes even if we are staying home, while I lounge around in my yoga pants all day.
