How long does it take you to get ready?

Now that I have a baby it seems like it takes me forever to get ready. I used to be able to get ready in 15 minutes and be out the door. She's well worth it though. Does it take you forever to get ready? When I'm going somewhere special it takes me a little while longer though because I like to put on a little bit of makeup. For the women do you have to put on makeup before leaving the house?

normally i donot love to put makeups.all i do id put eyeliner and mascara and the lipstick of course.it generally takes me 5 -10 minutes to get ready since i dont do much make ups.however i have heard or rather you can say i have ladies taking some 1-2hours to get ready.its really shocks me.however if one has kid then they might take some more time.but 1-2hours is really too much.

I have some friends that take 1-2 hours to get ready. I think they are silly. They have to curl or straighten their hair, put on their makeup and it takes them forever to finalize their clothes. I would be very upset with myself if I had to take that long to get ready....lol. Have a great day.

It's been so long since I've been able to take a long bath. Maybe that's what I will tell my significant other I want for Christmas. Just to take a long bath while he keeps our daughter occupied. Have a great day.

Depends on where it is I'm going. If it's just out to a movie or to get something to eat, then it takes me about 40 seconds to throw on clothes. If it's something special, then maybe 20 minutes to put on make-up, maybe ten or so more if I'm going to do anything with my hair, but I rarely do.

it takes me about 20 minutes to get ready if i don't have my daughter in the room with me...if she is with me then it could be anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes. that 20 minutes is for stuff like special events or church. any other time...10 minutes at the most.

I too use to get ready in 15 minutes and out the door, but now that we have a baby it takes 4 X that time. Even when I have the diaper bag ready to go, it still takes me much longer than it use to. 90% of the time i'm without make up.
