It depends on how tired I am.. sometimes I fall asleep right away. Other times I'm in bed thinking about stuff for over an hour!

Sleeping is my superpower! In retrospect, I should probably ask to get a new superpower. This one kind of sucks!

If I have a lot of my mind 1-2 hours. It's great if I'm tired and I go to sleep in less than an hour.

Last night, I had trouble sleeping but then I remember I have the 'Sleep Machine- free' app and that put me to sleep real quick. I like listening to ocean waves and relaxation (yoga sounds). Yoga always relaxes me.

Also, I bought the app 'Sleep Cycle' and really interesting to see when I'm in deep sleep and when I'm not. Also, it's suppose to wake me up gently as apposed to alarm clocks that don't know my sleep cycle.

that is EXACTLY like me and Rob Sr. Sometimes it takes me hours... I've ALWAYS been this way. I remember thinking up whole storybooks of stories when I was in elementary school. I'd check the clock and still be awake well past midnight.

Meanwhile, Rob Sr. can fall asleep even before his head hits the pillow.

I'm much better about sleeping now that I'm always exhausted with work, pregnancy, chasing around a toddler and all the housework. We are also VERY strict about our room being only for sleep. I think this helps since I spent a lot of time in my bedroom before I got married. Now the bedroom is only for sleep. We have a TV in our room but we only use it on Saturday mornings so we can laze around while RJ eats his breakfast and plays in our room. I didn't even use it during late night feedings when RJ was an infant. We try not to have any serious conversations in our bedroom and we don't spend time in there. Only for sleep. And boom-boom.

usually, i can fall asleep easily, but last night, i was up until 3 am! when i have something on my mind, it's almost impossible for me to turn my brain off. luckily, this only happens every one in a while when i read/do something right before bed. i need to stop reading my emails right before i go to sleep!

Same. I'm a night owl, always been. I need to read a book and wait until I can no longer see straight before I fall asleep. When I was single, I'd listen to relaxing music and fall asleep to it.

Although DH is a deep sleeper, I feel bad having music on, so I read instead.

Depends... usually when I'm reading a book, I pass out in ten minutes (Unless I'm REALLY into the book!)

If I have the TV on, 30 min or so...

With nothing.. I usually sleep within 15 minutes.
