Lost too many family members overnight.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-289555 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 12:23:34 +0000 lawbee11 289555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put my phone on phone calls only, so I don't get alerts for emails/texts/other notifications, but it will ring if someone calls. I am way too paranoid about missing a call in the event of an emergency to leave it on silent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-289550 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 12:20:31 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 289550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I leave my on loud on my nightstand! No one calls late at night, unless it was an emergency. I sleep through the text/email/FB noises! So does my DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-289086 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 05:48:31 +0000 tequiero21 289086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i don't keep my phone near me. i usually don't know where exactly it is haha since i never really use it. when i need it for alarm, i will turn on vibrate cuz right now, i'm sleeping with the kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-289007 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 00:24:41 +0000 BSB 289007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any kids so, no, I don't put my phone on silent. The only reason I put my phone on silent is for work. My phone is on vibrate (except for alarms) Monday to Friday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-289005 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 00:16:29 +0000 Boogs 289005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phone rings and vibrates and it's always on during the night. I've actually been called in the night for emergencies before so I'm always paranoid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288987 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 23:30:57 +0000 eeh 288987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phone is usually turned up pretty loud. My husband's phone is ALWAYS, always, always turned up. So is his back up phone. He works on call and frequently gets called in the middle of the night. Missed call = losing job. It didn't take long for me to get used to hearing it ring, waking up the husband, then going right back to sleep. </p> <p>Example: apparently at 1:30 this morning he got called to work and I woke him up and even had a conversation with him. When I woke up for real (around 8) he was gone and I had no clue where he was or when he left. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288965 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 22:31:18 +0000 Springtime 288965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I keep mine on vibrate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288493 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 14:02:51 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 288493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but I keep all my notifications off anyway, and I wouldn't expect anyone I know to call at night, so it doesn't seem to matter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288488 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 13:58:06 +0000 stargal 288488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>its usually always (day and nite) on silent with the baby, ive had it off silence and it always rings when he is sleeping and he starts screaming in his sleep :( and then i have to battle to get him to sleep again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288472 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 13:36:39 +0000 mamabird 288472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is on silent.

Or if I'm expecting something... like when my sister was pregnant, I left it on in case she went into labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288443 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 13:06:18 +0000 birdofafeather 288443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have it on vibrate so if it's a real emergency and someone calls several times I would wake up but I don't wake to texts or emails. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288313 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 10:12:33 +0000 heffalump 288313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: My DH values his phone over anything, so I don't have to worry :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288085 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 05:04:50 +0000 DigAPony 288085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my phone is on silent when I go to bed. I am totally not a morning person and I get really pissed when I get woken up early by a text or random call. If I have to have an alarm my phone has a setting where all sound is off except for the alarm (thank God). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288068 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 03:07:15 +0000 matador84 288068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, always on silent! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288056 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 01:29:41 +0000 junebugmama 288056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I am too worried about emergencies. We don't have a house phone just cells </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-288051 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 01:09:48 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 288051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phone is always on vibrate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287965 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 23:23:21 +0000 pinkcupcake 287965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always keep my phone on vibrate; otherwise, my phone's constantly going off b/c of stupid notifications that never seem to completely turn off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287843 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 20:39:04 +0000 MamaMoose 287843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: ahhhh gotcha. That makes sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287839 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 20:34:35 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 287839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Doctors still use pagers! BUT, when I'm on call, I'm already in the hospital (our call is what is termed "in house" call)... so I never need my phone for a doctor thing, which is kind of nice :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287838 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 20:33:33 +0000 Sweet T 287838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, my volume is pretty much always turned up. When DH was deployed, there was no telling what time he would call me. Now, I just keep it on in case family needs to get in touch with us. We're across the country and the time difference sucks sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287827 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 20:21:59 +0000 MamaMoose 287827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: My husband ALWAYS has his phone on silent at night so if I don't have my phone on we're in trouble! When we lived apart it was a HUGE pet peeve of mine. Sometimes I think that man values sleep above anything else in the world!</p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: So how does it work if you are on call? Do doctors still use pagers? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287792 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:40:40 +0000 heffalump 287792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phones always on vibrate. If I don't here it and there's an emergency, they'll call dh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287788 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:38:30 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 287788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My phone is always on silent! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287781 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:13:36 +0000 Minnie_Girl 287781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, because my phone is my alarm. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287777 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:08:43 +0000 MamaMoose 287777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I would never want to miss an emergency middle of the night call. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287766 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 18:54:50 +0000 mrbee 287766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always have my phone on vibrate. I'm a heavy sleeper though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-put-your-phone-on-silent-when-you-go-to-bed#post-287739 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 18:05:04 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 287739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put mine on vibrate because if I am in deep sleep, i'll sleep right through it.<br /> But, if it is morning and I'm just laying there in/out of light sleep then i'll hear it. Mornings are usually when I get "emergency" phone-calls like....my sister needs a ride to work ....or DH forgot his lunch and is asking me to drop it off....things like that. Everyone calls me because I am a SAHW and they assume i've got time haha:) </p>
