DH gets up at 0330 for work and I almost ALWAYS wake up and stay up for a good amount of time when he leaves. But for some reason, I am been sleeping so much better lately. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-365843 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 09:15:39 +0000 Alivoo01 365843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on how much activity has occurred during the awakening. If it's just to get up and pee, then I'll fall back asleep within a few minutes. If I had to get up to put laundry from washer to dryer or help hubby load up the car, then it'll take me awhile to fall back asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-365597 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 00:15:25 +0000 pinkcupcake 365597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I have a pretty hard time falling back asleep. L usually wakes up to eat around 6AM and sometimes she'll go back down for another hour or so around 630AM, but unfortunately, I'm wide-awake :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-365576 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 23:56:18 +0000 banana 365576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty good at falling back asleep. I'm a sleepy head I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-365575 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 23:41:43 +0000 Mrs Checkers 365575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not anymore, not after LO was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364945 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 12:32:27 +0000 Meridian 364945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually I can fall back asleep! But if it's close to when I have to wake up, say an hour or less, then it's harder because I obsess about how I'm missing out on an hour of sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364767 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 09:58:52 +0000 CATWOMAN 364767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Once I'm up, I'm generally up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364725 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 09:19:33 +0000 T-Mom 364725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually can fall asleep easily since the kids wear me out but last night I fell asleep with DD at 9 and woke up at 1 and couldnt go back to sleep till 3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364712 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 08:38:51 +0000 mrsjyw 364712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope.

Now that I'm pregnant, notsomuch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364685 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 07:19:51 +0000 mrbee 364685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be great at falling back asleep... but as my sleep schedule has gotten less regular, my skillz have atrophied. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364674 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 07:03:55 +0000 CarrieLouWho 364674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always been a great sleeper. I think my white noise machine has helped as I've gotten older- If I wake up, I just focus on the noise and I'm back out. DH sleeps even harder than me and never wakes up (barking dog/screaming baby). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364630 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 04:32:08 +0000 MamaMoose 364630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Get out of my head. I've been up since 3 and I was just laying in bed wondering if I'll have such a hard time falling back to sleep once LO is here! I tried and tried to go back to sleep but I finally just gave in and moved out to the couch to watch TV. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364627 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 04:31:06 +0000 loveisstrange 364627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have horrible insomnia. Like, C started screaming her head off at about 5am this morning and I couldn't fall back asleep... even though we went to a late showing of Skyfall last night and I didn't fall asleep until 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364626 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 04:29:24 +0000 Mrs. Bee 364626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have had varying degrees of insomnia my whole life, and I definitely sleep better post kids because I'm so tired. I passed out at 7:30 last night and woke up at 1 and have been up since. Rare that I pass out like that, but just to give you an idea of how tired I am sometimes. I doze off pretty much every single day while nursing too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-get-worken-up-are-you-good-at-falling-back-asleep#post-364622 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 04:25:50 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 364622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I get woken up, especially in the early morning, I can almost NEVER fall back asleep. This morning our dog started barking like crazy at 4:00, so I've been up since 4:00. I try to lay there and fall back asleep, but it never works. Of course DH doesn't hear the barking to begin with and is upstairs snoozing away. I like mornings, and feel fine now, but I know I'll be grumpy later today because I didn't get enough sleep. </p> <p>Do you have a hard time falling back asleep? Once you have an LO does it get easier to fall back asleep? </p>
