Sometimes I do all the wakeups to let him catch up. Friday he slept 12 hours straight. Then Saturday, I slept 10 hours straight. It was GLORIOUS. For both of us. hilsy85 on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378720 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 13:20:01 +0000 hilsy85 1378720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Anywhere from 6-8, depending on when LO wakes up and when I go to sleep. For me, it's not the actual number of hours that helps me feel rested, I think--it's when they are. So I will feel more rested if I sleep from 12-7 than if I sleep from 9-5, even tho it's the same amount of sleep. Unfortunately, LO is an early riser and I am usually up by 6!

One weekend night I can usually get 8-9, if D gets up with E. D's work schedule is weird, and he works late hours, so I have to stay up when I want to spend time with him. I've tried moving E's bedtime later but he wakes up at the same early-ish time (for us) no matter what time I put him down. pui on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378622 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 12:49:06 +0000 pui 1378622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Lately as much as I can. 8 hours or more. delight on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378617 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 12:47:19 +0000 delight 1378617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I get 7-8 interrupted hours.

Maybe 3-4 hours. If I was lucky. But now that he's nearly 2 and a good sleeper, I try to make sure I get 7-8. Some nights I stay up too late though and only get 5.5-6. I feel it pretty hard when I do that. But after that first year with a baby - I know I could adjust to less sleep if I needed to. lawbee11 on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378455 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 11:55:10 +0000 lawbee11 1378455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 5-6 (not consecutive).

I'm a night owl but would wake up as late as possible to still get to work sort of on time. Now with a 6 month old who is up once or twice a night I think I average about 6 hours a night, but it's broken up with her night feedings. I add a little extra horizontal time, even if I'm not sleeping, by bringing her into bed for her morning feeding and do side lying nursing. To those of you not sure how you will deal with so little sleep with a baby... you just do. Some days are worse than others (or in our case, some months...) but you get through it. You may snap at your SO saying, "It's FINE. I'll just never sleep again!" as you stomp off to the babies room yet again to feed her, but you'll survive :) Smurfette on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378437 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 11:50:34 +0000 Smurfette 1378437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 7-8, but I never sleep that in one stretch. I am lucky to only get up once to use the bathroom. I really need 9 hours. yellowbird on "How many hours of sleep do you get each night?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-hours-of-sleep-do-you-get-each-night#post-1378429 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 11:48:58 +0000 yellowbird 1378429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 7ish, I really need 8!

I used to get way less but I felt like crap all the time. I'm sure this will change when LO arrives! My DH gets like no sleep (5-6 hours a night) and has more energy than me, so jealous!

My sleep is so important to me - I can't function at all if I don't get enough. My husband is able to get by with just 6 hours each night. I'm so jealous of him! Would love to stay up later :P
