As long as no one bugs me, I can sleep all day :P heartonastring on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558781 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:16:49 +0000 heartonastring 1558781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 11. I always joke that sleeping is one of my greatest strengths in life :p spaniellove on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558735 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:07:00 +0000 spaniellove 1558735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Definitely a 9-10. I never remember the time between lying down and falling asleep, and once I'm out I'm out. My husband wakes up much earlier than me and does whatever he does to go out running and I'm never aware of what goes on in the room. Mrs. Confetti on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558732 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:06:18 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 1558732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I am a 3 - I can almost always fall asleep, but I am terrible at staying asleep. And I 100% cannot nap. Mr. C is a 9 or 10 - sleeps easily and great napper. coopsmama on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558728 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:05:21 +0000 coopsmama 1558728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm an 8 or a 9. I usually can nap whenever I want and still be fine with my typical bedtime. Very rarely will I wake up in the night and have a hard time sleeping. Maybe it's more like I'm a 10 when not pregnant and at a 5 while pregnant and 8 is my average. ;) MrsSCB on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558720 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:03:38 +0000 MrsSCB 1558720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd say I'm about a two. I have a hard time falling asleep, I don't think I've ever slept through a whole night, and when I wake up at night it can take forever to fall back asleep. Growing up, I literally did not know some people sleep through the whole night. I thought everyone woke up once, twice, or more every night mrs. wagon on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558704 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:00:39 +0000 mrs. wagon 1558704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would say a 6? it takes me a while to fall asleep, and if I take a nap I'm up all night, BUT it's REALLY hard for me to take naps. I have to be ABSOLUTELY exhausted and relaxed to be able to fall asleep during the day. I never wake up in the middle of the night though. Once I'm out, I'm out and I hate waking up. Wagon Sr. is a 10. He can sleep anywhere and he'll sleep as much as you let him. BKCaribBaby on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558632 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:46:50 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1558632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ These days I am probably a 3 or 4. LO started sleeping through the night at about 6 months, but I have not slept more than 5 or 6 hours straight since before she was born. It also doesn't help that she is an early riser. I wake up early all the time and can't get back to sleep. It's awful. :( pui on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558601 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:40:21 +0000 pui 1558601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Hmmm... maybe like a 6? I fall asleep pretty easily, but I am also a light sleeper and get woken up multiple times in the night. Still overall I sleep OK. mrsrain on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558597 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:39:43 +0000 mrsrain 1558597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Normally I'd say a 5 or 6. It can take me a while to fall asleep, but once I am there it is GREAT. Lately, being pregnant, I'd go with a 3. I am up and down all night long, can't get comfortable, sometimes wide awake at 4am. Littlebit on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558581 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:37:15 +0000 Littlebit 1558581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 10. For sure. My mom and husband always tell me I could have been a professional sleeper. I can fall asleep anywhere, and for any length of time.

DH is like a 7, he can sleep well most times but stress affects his sleep greatly. T-Mom on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558568 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:34:30 +0000 T-Mom 1558568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm a 10. I have fallen asleep everywhere.. missed flights because I fell asleep in the boarding area, slept through lectures, fall asleep within 30 seconds usually. However, it's mainly because i'm sleep deprived! autumnlove on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558567 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:34:18 +0000 autumnlove 1558567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe a 3 or 4. I can't stay asleep. jhd on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558559 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:32:45 +0000 jhd 1558559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe 8 or 9? DH probably 7 or 8.

Working shiftwork taught me how to have naps and it's been amazing. :wink: Cherrybee on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558516 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:23:51 +0000 Cherrybee 1558516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe a 4? I need perfect conditions to fall asleep - silence, darkness, comfort, the right temperature etc. Last year, I stayed in a hotel for work and I didn't sleep a wink because the tiny red light on the smoke alarm kept me awake! A ticking clock will definitely keep me awake and an LED digital clock is out of the question! Plus, once I'm asleep, the slightest little thing wakes me up. I really struggle to sleep next to DH - he likes to read in bed (I have to wait until he has finished reading before I can go to sleep because the light keeps me awake), he snores, even his breathing can stop me sleeping. If I go up first, the sound of him coming up the stairs wakes me up and even if he tip toes up I can sense him in the room and I wake..... That said, I can nap like a champ in the afternoon! So weird! Mae on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558454 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:13:11 +0000 Mae 1558454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd say 7. I rarely have trouble falling asleep and I can usually stay asleep just fine. I took a few points off because I do struggle with occasional insomnia in the morning hours (like if I get up at 4 to pee, sometimes I can't go back to bed) and naps totally mess me up.

I used to be a light sleeper and sometimes have trouble falling asleep. Now I am so tired I can fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow (occasionally I'd have trouble). I'm still a light sleeper though! Greentea on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558446 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:11:11 +0000 Greentea 1558446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @MamaMoose: haha! My dh is a 10 as well. Like a rock.

I loooove sleep but still don't get much from lo and my mattress is uncomfortable and I can't be too cold and I always have to go to the bathroom :meh: I just got a new mattress! But have to wait for a new bedframe to be made and arrive in the mail :meh: yerpie110 on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558418 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:08:09 +0000 yerpie110 1558418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm around an 8. I fall asleep easily at night, don't have problems falling back asleep (usually) if the baby wakes and needs me, and I love taking naps, which rarely affect my nighttime sleep. I do wake to use the bathroom a lot, and sometimes, i have trouble asleep/staying asleep if there is too much on my mind. My husband is a 12 at night (he could sleep through a hurricane), but a tiny bit of a nap will mess him up so no naps for him. Guess who did all nighttime duty? Lucky me! Adira on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558415 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:07:29 +0000 Adira 1558415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm probably a 6-7. It usually takes me a while to fall asleep, but then I'm good! If I wakeup in the middle of the night, I can usually go right back to sleep (unless Hubs is snoring). Mrs. Oatmeal on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558405 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:05:57 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1558405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd say a 9, probably. I can fall asleep at any time, pretty much anywhere. Naps, caffeine, sugar - nothing affects my sleep. I could attribute that to the multiple MOTN wakeups we're still dealing with. On the downside, I am ALWAYS sleepy (was on narcolepsy meds for awhile). So while at night its a good thing, during the day its not so good! Smurfette on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558396 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:04:14 +0000 Smurfette 1558396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 4 or 5. Super restless at night and I have a small bladder so up 2-3 times to use the bathroom. MamaMoose on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558393 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:03:48 +0000 MamaMoose 1558393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Probably a 4. I fall asleep OK most nights, but when I wake up with the baby in the middle of the night it takes me SO long to fall back to sleep. I'm a chronic worried so my mind races about all the things that are stressing me out. My husband is a total 10. Mrs. Bee on "Scale of 1-10, how good of a sleeper are you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/scale-of-1-10-how-good-of-a-sleeper-are-you#post-1558386 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 09:02:43 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1558386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would say Mr. Bee is a 9-10. He can fall asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow, and taking a nap doesn't affect his bedtime at all. He can pretty much sleep anywhere. I would say I'm a 3. I've struggled with insomnia most of my life. I have a hard time falling asleep because my mind is always racing, so I have to watch tv to drown out the thoughts. If I take even the shortest nap I'm up late. And a couple sips of coffee and I'm up all night. I wish I were a 10! What about you and your SO?
