I've been sleeping 4-5 hours a night lately so when I went to bed around 10 last night, I was excited by the possibility of 7 hours of sleep! But then I woke up after 6 hours and couldn't get back to bed.
I guess my body is used to less sleep and doesn't want to sleep more! Will try to get to bed early again tonight and see if I can re-train it.
How much did you sleep last night?

I think about 9 hours, I usually average 10. I require a lot of sleep these days.

I went to bed at 10, was up at 11:30, 12:30, 1, 2:30, from 4 until 5:30, 6:30, up for the day at 7:30. I refuse to count. Don't wanna know!

Today was my sleep in day but we had friends over so were up late and I had one glass too many of wine 
So I was probably in bed for 10 hours w/a 2 am wake-up, another 6 am wake up and then awoken a bunch hearing LO downstairs with daddy until I finally got up at 9. So kind of a waste of a sleep-in!

Ugh 4 or 5, which is not enough. Toddler was up screaming at 3, I had to go and lay down with her, then DJ came to get me when the baby woke up before 6. Stupidly didn't go to bed until almost midnight. I've been getting more like 7 hours a night and still feel tired then.
Early to bed tonight!

Hmm, 11-2, then 2:45-4, then 4:20-6, 6:15-7:45.
I have a 6 month old who still loves to nurse at night!

10-5
DH woke for work and that definitely wakes me up 
DD woke at 6:30 and we both crashed in my bed until 7:30

8.5 glorious hours.
My 18 month old is going through a regression and still jet lagged from our international travel last week so sleep has been bad in our house. But this weekend I went to visit my family without LO and I got two nights of 8-9 uninterrupted hours. I feel like a new woman.

Went to bed around 9, and woke up around 7:30. So, about 10.5 hours.

I got 8 hours with one wake up by me, and no wake ups from the lo! First full nights sleep in over a week!

12-9, with a few wake-ups to nurse my 7 month old. We were at my parents' for the weekend, and kiddo sleeps with me when we visit them, so she takes full advantage of the all night buffet.

I think like 1030-730 but ds cried at 1130 and and I struggled to go back to sleep. Probably got around 7.

10-7, which is the most sleep I've gotten in months. DH took pity on me and did all the wakeups last night.

This thread makes me want to cry
I think I got a total of 4 hours of broken sleep. EFFIN pregnancy insomnia. I am so miserable.

According to my Fitbit, 8h22m but I was up with my daughter twice for about 10 minutes each time that it didn't see to take into account.

About 4. Not my kids' fault! I have an awful cold that's waking me every 45 minutes and it's taking a long time to get my coughing not fits calmed down enough to sleep again--even with NyQuil. I'm hoping for a little better tonight (before I got sick, the boys were, so going on almost two weeks with numerous wake ups.) usually one wake up is more typical, and usually 7 hours.

7.5 hours. I went to bed late - around midnight - but luckily DS slept all night. I woke up twice to pee I think, which is pretty good for 33 weeks pregnant.
Lately I try to get to bed by 1030-11pm and usually need to get up by 645-7am so I can get my 8 hours. I usually have to pee 3-4 times a night and DS has been having his 18 month regression plus croup/cold so it's been a little wonky.

Now that we have two kids STTN, I'm usually the first one up! Last night it was about 11PM-6:45AM and I woke up on my own, refreshed!

We have a newborn struggling with painful gas. Last night I was up nearly every hour. I can't do math in my current sleep-deprived state, but as someone who doesn't do well on less than 7 hours (my ideal is 9-10), I can barely walk straight for exhaustion these days.

About 6 hrs total, but broken. I was convinced I was going into labour last night (it has all stopped again now!) and I couldn't sleep initially because it was hurting. I remember midnight but must have fallen asleep soon after. I was awake at 3 to pee, then E woke up coughing at 5, but fell back to sleep herself after a rousing chorus of Incy Winsy Spider *shrug*. I was still awake at 6 and considered getting up but then I fell back to sleep, only to be awoken by E at 8am.

I got a great sleep actually -10pm-7:30. DH was away the two nights before that and I don't sleep great when he's not here.

My 1.2 week old slept from 8-330!!!! Fed him then went back to bed til 6. Life changing.

@pinkcupcake: 
When I was pregnant my doctor suggested benadryl and a gently warm bath with two cups of Epsom salts in it. It helped.

9:30pm-5:45 am. Friday and Saturday though, were 7:30-6:30. I am high sleep needs.

9:30p-5:30a, with a couple of random wake ups (just me being a light sleeper) in between. So, probably around 7 hours or so. DD just started STTN at 17.5 mos and it has definitely been life changing!

1030 to 7! DH's alarm woke me once so I went to the bathroom. That was around 6 I think. The time change has been nice for this house lol

10-6-ish... DD doesn't wake till 6:30 ish but she starts stirring after 6 and she sleeps next to me so I know.

@hellobeeboston: Agreed, either cry or laugh
J is going through a little bit of a (hopefully short) phase. J was up at 1 thrashed next to me for about 2 hours, went into the crib for 1 hour then up at four, thrashed next to me for an hour, then back his bed for 1.5 hours, then I made DH deal with him so I could get at least 1 more hour of sleep so I don't even know what to count as sleep

@Ms.Badger: yes. That sounds exactly like my Sunday night. At 4 after I had been up for 2 hours I handed LO off to DH who ended up putting him in the car and driving him around to get him to sleep at 4:30 am.

7.5 hours. I woke once when I heard the baby, but he babbled for a bit and then went back to sleep.

Last night I only got about 4. I stayed up late to watch the NCAA tournament and was too amped up that I couldn't fall asleep.

About 8 hours. Thank goodness the babe sleeps through the night now. I feel you, pregnant mamas and those with newborns. Hang in there.
