I like to go to bed around 11PM and wake up at around 8 or 9AM. My husband is a night owl and likes to stay up until like 2-3AM and sleep until noon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502605 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 17:57:58 +0000 mrsjyw 1502605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>both night owls (as in we stay up til 11 or midnight even tho ds goes down at 7). but we also have to force ourselves to sleep in cuz we're used to waking up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502474 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 17:11:12 +0000 BSB 1502474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both night owl's, but I'm more pleasant in the AM if I have to get up early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502453 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 17:06:32 +0000 Synchronicity 1502453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a morning person, he's a night owl. </p> <p>I HATE sleeping in. If I sleep in past 8am on a weekend, it makes me ragey. I feel like I'm wasting the day! Him on the other hand... if he's up before 9 (and even that is early!), he's pissy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502428 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:59:19 +0000 chopsuey 1502428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neither, but I've been forced to become a morning person. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502418 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:56:29 +0000 MrsBrewer 1502418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neither!

Some nights we try to get in bed by 10:30, but something always happens and we usually don't sleep until midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502412 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:55:15 +0000 MarieJ 1502412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am neither. I would like to go to sleep early &amp; wake up later ;) DH is both. Is that possible? He can go to sleep late and wake up the next morning at 4:45/5am and be fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502409 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:54:44 +0000 Dandelion 1502409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both morning people.

For like two months I was falling asleep at 8:30 or 9pm on the couch and he was like this is the beesssssst haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so/page/2#post-1502336 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:34:06 +0000 Pepper 1502336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are both night owls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1502272 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:06:41 +0000 mrs. 64 1502272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both night owls by nature, but DH has to get up reallly early for work and I always grumble about our early bedtime. He was loving my first tri exhaustion because I was always ready for bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501992 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:54:27 +0000 Pirouette 1501992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septca: haha that's so funny because DH is the opposite - if i lie on the couch and fall asleep he's like "JUST GO TO SLEEP!" but he gets sad when i actually do. i agree i also don't mind getting up early, but i think i would if i stayed up with him ;) he used to just come to bed and watch tv there, which was great, but the baby is still in our room, so it's not worth risking waking her up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501955 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:46:32 +0000 Mae 1501955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septca: We sort of do this too. We used to just go to be separately more, but it sort of bums me out to go to bed alone after my husband is already sleeping. Now we usually go to bed together when DH seems particularly intent on falling asleep on the couch (unlike your husband, the falling asleep on the couch annoys the crap out of me), which is usually around 10pm. Then we turn on a show on netflix and inevitably he falls asleep during the very first episode (which annoys me a little every night, but like, I can't REALLY be annoyed because he's just sleeping… lol). I finish the episode then read in bed until I am sleepy, usually around 12 or so. At least I get a lot of reading done? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501943 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:42:28 +0000 cascademom 1501943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH has always been a night owl since I met him. Before LO arrived, I was a morning person. I loved getting up early, having tea and breakfast before he woke up. With LO, I've come to hate mornings since I've been doing morning routine pretty much since I finished my maternity leave. Seven days a week, I wake up early. I'm over early mornings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501935 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:40:30 +0000 heartonastring 1501935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is a crazy morning person. He naturally gets up around 5 every day - even when we're on vacation! I'm the opposite: I could sleep until 8:30/9 every day.</p> <p>It's not really a big deal in day-to-day life, but it drives me crazy when we're on vacation. I mean, last time we were in Vegas he wanted to be in bed by 10 and then we'd be the only sober people walking the strip at 7 a.m. Super cool, right?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501892 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:30:48 +0000 Caly 1501892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both night owls. We both loathe mornings. And we both absolutely adore our sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501891 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:30:42 +0000 septca 1501891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pirouette: It's rough. I actually don't mind being the one who gets up early every day - I like the quiet time with DD and I know DH would be a bear if he were up, so it's just not worth it.</p> <p>We have compromised on bedtime a bit - DH hates when I go upstairs to bed while he is reading or watching TV, but he is okay if I fall asleep on the couch. So that's what we do (I go upstairs around 9:30 and wash my face and change into my pjs, then we usually watch a show together). :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501863 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:21:45 +0000 GrapeCrush 1501863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: that's exactly my husband! After 2 kids, one 22 months and one 7 months, he's learned to go back to sleep after wakeups haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501857 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:20:48 +0000 lilyann 1501857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is a night owl and I am an early bird. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501853 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:19:30 +0000 Pirouette 1501853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septca: this exactly. I used to try to stay up later to accommodate him, but now that we have a baby, it's simply not an option since i know i'll be handling the early wakeup. it makes him so sad when i go to bed earlier but i need to if i'm going to function at all when LO wakes me up early! i do miss having that time with him, but I really need to sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501822 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:08:38 +0000 Mae 1501822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@GrapeCrush: I hope it works for us too! One area my DH is going to need to seriously improve on is falling back asleep. I can usually fall back asleep after getting up to pee or whatever pretty easily. But if something wakes my DH up in the middle of the night it usually takes him 1-2 hours to fall back asleep. He's going to need to adapt to survive with a baby! lol</p> <p>@Mrs tartan: ohhhhh the days of sleeping past noon lol. I was like that all through school. On weekends I could easily sleep until 1-2pm. I think working has adapted me a little bit. I'm now pretty happy to get up around 9, and 10 is definitely sleeping in. Just don't ask me to get up at 6 or 7 please. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501802 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:02:49 +0000 Mrs tartan 1501802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a morning person, on days off I like to be up by 8am and usually well before. DH is very much a night owl, he would sleep until 1pm the next day if I let him. I hate to waste a day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501254 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:14:51 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1501254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I'm both a morning person AND a night owl. When it's time to get up in the morning, I am up! I like to get the day started and things done. No matter how late I stay up the night before, I can get myself up in the mornings and get going. I also stay up late too... I prefer to sleep early, but love the alone time I get at night.</p> <p>My husband is NOT a morning person. Total night owl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501234 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:10:16 +0000 GrapeCrush 1501234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: that's basically what my DH and I did when our kids were born. he'd stay up late/do all night wakeups until 1-2am, and I'd get anything after that/get up with LO in the morning because I can get up easily/go back down easily, but can't stay awake at night/late for anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501213 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:05:49 +0000 nana87 1501213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're not like, the morning-est of morning people--we get up around 7 during the week but would happily sleep until like 9 on our own devices--but we definitely are NOT night owls. Lately we've been going to bed around 10, though some of that is my pregnancy fatigue--we used to go to bed more like at 11. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501205 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:05:04 +0000 mynoahbear 1501205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a night owl and DH is a morning person. It's good because DD 1 wakes up around 6-6:30 and DH is usually up already to tend to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501198 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:03:37 +0000 Littlebit 1501198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: Ha! I'm the same way! I will never turn down the opportunity for more sleep! </p> <p>I don't like waking up early, but once I'm up I'm usually in a pretty good mood! I get grumpier as the day goes on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-morning-person-or-a-night-owl-your-so#post-1501185 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 12:01:37 +0000 Boogs 1501185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're opposites. He's a day person, I'm a night owl. </p>
