You also have to consider you might be waking her up at 5AM. I would approach it like this:
You: Hey! I just wanted to make sure I’m not being too loud in the mornings when I get up. How is this working out for you? I just want to make sure.
Roommate: Responds with complaint OR says nope, you are just fine. Hopefully your roommate will ask the same thing of you.
You: Thanks for letting me know! I will try to not make that noise or find a solution (if you open a drawer that wakes her up maybe set out what you need the night before). If she asked the same question to you, respond now. If she doesn’t say, I know I get up really early, but sometimes when you come in late I wake up because it is a little loud. Can you not do (insert noise here)?
Roommate: Awesome! I’m so glad we can be open and communicate!
