"WE DO THIS TOO!!!" admitted a second. "Honestly getting two babies under two ready for school is a chore."

Questions from the 'concerned parents'

While a majority of the thousand of comments were in support and praising Ms Rachel's uniform-PJs, others weren't on board, "Ms Rachel you wrong for this…a nice bath wakes you up ❤️"

"Night time sweating and wearing those clothes the next day?" questioned a second.

"But then it’s all creased and sweaty. Takes five mins to get them dressed," a third chimed in.

Taking the comments in her stride, clapped back in the only way Ms Rachel could possibly clap back, "To answer the questions: he bathes at night, he doesn’t get sweaty at night 🥰 if he did, we’d grab new clothes 🥰."

Anything is worth a try to avoid the morning chaos!
