I have a tiny bladder and when not pregnant am up at least a couple times a night to pee (even with cutting off fluids pretty early and all that). I can pass right back out. DH is kind of weird. He can fall asleep initially way fast, like in the middle of a sentence (literally) fast. And he's fine if he wakes up in the middle of the night. But if something (like the dogs) wakes him up early, he's up for the day. He can't go back to sleep after 6 or so. miramira on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039365 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 08:31:17 +0000 miramira 2039365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes if I make sure to keep myself drowsy and not think too much while feeding baby in the middle of the night (anywhere from 2 to 6 times...) lady grey on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039340 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 07:43:32 +0000 lady grey 2039340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Noooo it's very difficult. If I wake up it usually takes me an hour to fall back asleep. Sometimes 0.5mg of melatonin wil help.

DH is usually up for a while.

The pp insomnia was bad. I tried this breathing technique (4-7-8 breathing) the other day and it worked for me! I could feel myself drift off to sleep. <a href="http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART00521/three-breathing-exercises.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART00521/three-breathing-exercises.html</a> Cherrybee on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039306 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 04:39:01 +0000 Cherrybee 2039306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I can if the conditions are right - dark, quiet and warm. The problem we have is that DH cant .... So he turns his lamp on and reads or plays with his phone until he's sleepy. The light and the sound of pages turning inevitably keeps me awake. sera_87 on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039268 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 00:07:15 +0000 sera_87 2039268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope. Which is why I'm usually up from lo2s first wake up (2/3:30am) until 6-7ish.....and then lo1 gets up at 7:30. And then I spend the whole day dying of exhaustion. :sad: Super fun.

I suck at falling back asleep in the middle of the night. The worst is when LO is actually sleeping for a 2+ hour stretch, but my mind keeps anxiously awaiting his next wake up :( woodentulip on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039233 Sat, 24 Jan 2015 22:53:16 +0000 woodentulip 2039233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I am like Bee...and I am a super grump if I don't get enough sleep! mrbee on "If you wake up in the middle of the night, can you fall back asleep easily?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-can-you-fall-back-asleep-easily#post-2039226 Sat, 24 Jan 2015 22:38:25 +0000 mrbee 2039226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Sleep is my superpower!
