MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

when's your bedtime and wake time? how old are your dc's?


dh comes home late from work and then we talk too long and don't go to sleep till too late. so maybe between 1-1:30 am.

ds (1yr.) wakes between 4-7am to nurse and also whines/cries at night so he wakes me often.

then i get up at 9ish when ds wakes up.

= not enough sleep (maybe 7 non-consecutive hours. i think maybe 4 straight if i'm super lucky.)

what about you guys?

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

DD goes down anytime between 6:30-7:30. I *try* to be asleep by 9, but that almost NEVER happens. Especially when DH is working late. So- usually, by 10-10:30 and many times 11 I am in bed.

DD wakes up anytime between 5 and 6.

So- in a good night, I'll get 7.5 hours, but lately it seems to be close 6 .

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

Ds goes to bed between 730-830 and I go to bed around the same time...

I wake @ 5am during the week, and until about 7am when DS wakes up on the weekends...

I get too much sleep...

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

DS is 15 (almost 16 months). He goes to bed by 8:15PM.
I'm in bed by 10:30-11, fall asleep around 11:15/11:30 and am up at 7AM. DS gets up around 6:30 and will play until I get him around 7AM.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

DD is 3 months old..... TODAY ON MOMMY'S DAY!

She goes down anywhere from 7-7:30 pm, and I try to stay awake til Brian gets home... sometimes it just doesn't happen.

I go to sleep at the latest 12-1 am, and DD is awake at 7ish.... I am blessed - she usually sleeps 11-12 hours straight through!

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

DD is 19 months. She goes to bed by 7:30 and is up between 6:30-7:00.

I go to bed between 10-11 and during the week I am up at 6:00 getting ready for work. On weekends, I sleep until she wakes me.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

completely uninterupted lately about 4

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

ds goes down btwn 730 and 800 then he sleeps till 3ish on a good night and wakes for good at 6

i try to sleep by 10 then wake to nurse and wake at 6 to nurse n shower and get ready for the day, so about 4 hours straight then 3 more for a total of 7 interrupted hours..

oh the joys of being a mommy

i wouldn't trade it for the world though, i kinda like waking with him in the night and having a special 10 mins. together in the stillness of the night

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

I go to sleep way too late.

Leo comes home at 2:30 ish...I stay up trying to wait up...

wind up going to bed at 12:30ish...

sometimes wake when he comes home.

Josh is so unpredictable, but getting better. Lately we wake at 6...

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

dd goes to bed anywhere from 8-9:30. Sometimes she'll sleep until 6, but usually she is up at 3 or 4. I go to bed anywhere from 10-11:30. So usually, I get 4 straight hours. But what stinks is that it takes me so long to fall back to sleep. If she's up at 4 to nurse, I don't go back to sleep until 5 and she's up for the day between 6:30 and 7.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

about 9:30-6:30... i wonder how I am still tierd?!?

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

We go to bed around 11pm and I wake up around 8-8:30am.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

I usually get aout 8 hours of sleep. I'm pretty fortunate that I have pretty good sleepers around here!

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

The boys go to bed around 8:30pm and wake up for the day around 6:30-7am. One or both of them will get up in the middle of the night.

After they go to bed, I'm usually cleaning up, making dinner, doing laundry, washing bottles and packing diaper bag for next day. By the time I'm done it's usually 10pm. Then I'll watch the news and one of my soap operas and go to bed around midnight. I'm usually up between 6-6:30am.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

depends..I normally go to bed between 11:30 pm and 12:30 am.

And wake around 6 am-7am

But sometimes if the baby wakes up I go sleep on the couch with him with is very interrupted sleep.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

I usually try to go to sleep around 11pm. DD usually takes her last bottle around midnight (DH does that feeding) and is up anywhere between 3am-5am, so I get up with her. I usually get about 5 hours. DD is 3 months.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

I go to bed around 12:30-1am.. and and up at around 5:30-6am.. so between 4-5 hrs a night.... 6 if i'm REAL LUCKY!!!!

Oh and my son is 2. He goes down at around 9pm.. and sometimes still wakes during the night. Otherwise he is up for the day in the 5am hour....

I wish i had a 12 hr a night kid.... NOT!!

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

Pre baby: 8-9 hours sometimes 10
After baby (at 10.5 months PP): 6-7 hours. 5 hours 2 days ago.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

I used to go to bed around 12 -up until about 3 weeks ago - now, I can't really keep my eyes open past 10. I am up by 5:45 with DS every morning. So, let's say 6-7 hours a night.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

DD is 11 weeks, she sleeps from 9/10pm-9am, (sometimes wakes to nurse at 6am for a few minutes, but its not a big deal since we co-sleep) I go to bed around 12am and wake around 8 to get stuff done before she wakes.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

Ava is almost 2, she goes down at 8 and I'm usually in bed by 10, but I don't usually fall asleep until about 10:45, so that leaves me with 7 hours of sleep, which is plenty for me.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

6-7hrs however my 3yr old wakes up between 3-4am but as soon as I lay with him he goes right back out. I can't even remember the last time I slept through the night.

Re: MOMS how many hours do YOU sleep?

Hmm, I would say I average 8 hours. I am up until about midnight or so, and during the week I set my alarm for 8 a.m. so I can get up and get my son to school. sometimes I need to wake them up, we are all late sleepers.!
