Usually around 7 hours at night. I may take an hour nap during the weekends though. But I like to catch up on sleep in one stretch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164393 Mon, 21 May 2012 13:17:37 +0000 littlebug 164393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep all at once, and have never been a good napper unless I'm REALLY sick. But I anticipate that may change once LO arrives! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164381 Mon, 21 May 2012 12:59:39 +0000 chopsuey 164381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a 7 hour stretch last night! Followed by a 4 hour stretch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164238 Mon, 21 May 2012 10:07:21 +0000 calsmom 164238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before baby, I slept in one long stretch at night. Now, I sleep in 3-4 hour increments at night, and I try to squeeze a nap in during the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164232 Mon, 21 May 2012 10:02:34 +0000 BabyLove 164232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like my new answer is that I sleep never. Pre-baby, I slept in a long stretch at night. I loved to sleep and if I could fit in a nap, I would. Post baby- I, as they say, "get in where I fit in". I usually get at max a 5 hour stretch of sleep at night. She'll wake up, I'll feed her then hope to get a couple more hours of sleep. When she naps, I SHOULD try to nap too. But she doesn't often nap for long so I don't even bother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164213 Mon, 21 May 2012 09:38:01 +0000 LuLu Mom 164213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One stretch, and sometimes 2 on the weekend when I'm not working. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164185 Mon, 21 May 2012 09:11:14 +0000 Andrea 164185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: when the baby comes you can nap, hopefully! i remember taking a lot of naps with the LO was younger.<br /> yeah, you feel so mean for not wanting to talk on the phone. DH had all these things to tell me about his trip and I'm like omg, just let me sleep!! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164170 Mon, 21 May 2012 08:49:58 +0000 mrsjyw 164170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleept at night in one stretch, and take naps on top of it! Oh the joys of preg fatigue! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164155 Mon, 21 May 2012 08:27:12 +0000 sorrycharlie 164155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep at night in one stretch...ideally. I generally wake up a million times a night tossing and turning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164140 Mon, 21 May 2012 08:03:27 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 164140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One stretch. Some days I squeeze a nap in too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164135 Mon, 21 May 2012 07:55:32 +0000 heffalump 164135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One stretch. If I nap I don't sleep at night, and it's bad for migraines if you don't get good sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164133 Mon, 21 May 2012 07:45:12 +0000 mediagirl 164133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep all at once...for now, at least. I do like to nap when I have time. Yesterday I was reading a book on my bed around 2pm and next thing I knew, it was 3:30! Yikes! :)</p> <p>@andrea - sorry the LO kept you from napping. I know that feeling of not wanting to talk on the phone when you're so tired though. Glad you got to bed early!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164122 Mon, 21 May 2012 05:32:13 +0000 Andrea 164122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sleep in one stretch. I did try to sneak in a nap on the couch yesterday while the LO was watching some TV, since I was watching her by myself, but she wasn't having it. I went to bed at 8:30 pm! DH called and I barely even wanted to talk to him -- I just wanted to get to bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164113 Mon, 21 May 2012 00:00:25 +0000 Mrs. Blue 164113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm an all at once girl, though I do love an occasional nap. I'm a hot mess if I don't get at least 6 hours a night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sleep-in-one-stretch-or-in-various-stretches-over-the-course-of-the-day#post-164111 Sun, 20 May 2012 23:46:27 +0000 mrbee 164111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been monitoring my sleep lately and have noticed that I rarely sleep all in one stretch... I will often sleep in two or even three different sessions over the course of the day. For example, I might sleep a few hours at night, then wake up with my son at dawn... and then kinda of doze on the couch while he plays by himself. Then later that evening, I'll fall asleep while putting him to sleep, then wake up an hour or two later.</p> <p>I miss sleeping a bunch of hours in a row every night.</p> <p>Do you sleep in one stretch, or in various stretches over the course of the day? </p>
