Usually 5-7 hours, depending on whether or not I have something I have to wake up for. Last night I set an alarm, but woke up after 6 hours.
Before kids, I would sleep 8-9 hours without waking up, no problem. I hope that once the kids are older, I can stay asleep for longer! But my fear is that my sleep has been ruined forever!!
How long do you usually sleep if you don't set an alarm?

I never set an alarm. I always wake up at the same time. 5-7 hours.

@rachiecakes: Wow, you've never overslept for work? That's amazing!

Until 6am at the latest. That's usually between 7 and 8 hours.

I rarely oversleep but set my alarm anyway, just in case. Impressed at your internal alarm clock!

I can never sleep past 7. No matter what time I go to bed. 7 is late for me though since I usually get up at 6 for work.

I slept 8 hours last night and was in a deep sleep when the alarm went off. I could've easily slept another hour.

I'm slept at my parents last night - I slept 9pm-9am - I feel so refreshed !! I haven't slept that long in a while but first trimester exhaustion is joke

My kids have never given me the opportunity to find this out! I get up before them for work and need an alarm.

Lately J has been getting up between 6:30-7am, so until then. If he wasn't waking me up, I can sleep until 8:30-9am if I'm tired enough, but that doesn't happen often

I sleep 5-7 hours. I'm outta bed at 5:30 on this Saturday and I am leaving for the gym and grocery store soon! Working early during the week for over 12 years has ruined me!

If nothing else is going to wake me up, I sleep 10+ hours typically if I don't set an alarm.

During the week, I wake u at 5:40, so I have no clue because I use an alarm. On weekends, LO usually wakes us up at anytime from 4-6 am. Last night, I took her wakeups, so my husband got up with her when she was up for the day--right before 7. And I "slept" till 8 but was mostly awake just laying in bed trying to sleep after LO cried at 6:30-something.
I think having kids has ruined sleeping in for me.

Eh, I sleep without an alarm most nights. I usually sleep in until 8-8:30 most days regardless of when I go to bed. That is all about to change in 3 weeks or less.

I always wake up a couple times in the night, so I can really only sleep about three hours without waking up. But then I go back to sleep (hopefully!)
If I set an alarm, no matter what time I set it for, I will wake up just before it goes off. I don't know if my brain is anxious about the noise or what, but it's weird!

Around 10 hours not pregnant, 12+ pregnant. I actually hate it, but I have high sleep needs and always have.

I think I can sleep 9-10 hrs without an alarm, but it has been a few years since I have had that opportunity!

@Mrs.KMM: @Torchwood: @sunny: Another 10+ here! I figure I may as well get as much sleep as I can while I still can!

I have high sleep needs too. I can easily sleep 12+ hours, which I know won't be possible once I have LO.

Sleep?? I might get about 6 hours, broken up into 1.5-hour chunks, so it's very poor quality. I feel hungover constantly.
