I would say I'm a 7 if 10 is the most tired. I fall asleep putting Olive down almost every night! Then because I dozed off I can't sleep til late and the cycle continues. Olive was also waking up multiple times a night until we sleep trained her this week.
How tired are you on an average day?

On an average day at least a 5. Solo parenting is seriously so exhausting. Most days more than a 5! (Bed for me at 9 is late, 8 is average!)

Now that LMW is sleeping through the night (huzzah!) and has been for about a month consistently, I would say about a 6. But we also go to bed a lot earlier than we used to.

all this week was at 8 or 9, but today has been okay, so a 4? I also didn't drive (driving tires me OUT) and was able to nap for an hour. WINNING!

Most of the time I'm about a 4. Today I was a 7 but I think it has to do with the super dreary weather.

Depends on how good his naps are. When they're good - I'm like a 5. When they're bad, I'm like a 7 or 8. I have NO idea how moms of multiples do it....

At night I'm pretty good. Right now I'm a 2-3. I'm most tired first thing in the morning.

7 - I work from home and don't interact with people all day so I tend to get kinda sleepy!

I'd say 6 after a good night but usually 7/8. Despite feeling pretty exhausted most days I have a lot of trouble sleeping at night. =/

I'd say a solid 7. LO is still waking up 1-2 times a night and is up for the day by 6a, usually.

During the day I would say 2/3 but I'm asleep by 9 p.m. every night. I can't for the life of me stay awake past 10 p.m.

1. But I don't have kids. I don't need 8 hours to function, just to combat my anxiety.

Usually a 6. Being in the first trimester - like, a 12, every single day.

3/4 at the peak of my day. 8/9 upon wake up and 8/9 around bed time.

7-8. There are plenty of times where I think to myself that I should not be operating a vehicle on my way home from work. I'm asleep between 9:30&10 most nights, but I wake up about every 2 house to check on my son (on the monitor) then up for a half hour-1hour with my son to eat. I also have trouble getting back to sleep. I think that 10.5 months of this has caught up with me.

i'd say 6/7 but only because i MAKE myself go to bed between 10 & 11. before i had LO i was a major night owl but i just can't stay up late anymore and still function the next the day.

Probably a 7 but honestly I have been tired for four years. I am kind of used to if.

AM: 6/7
Afternoon: 2ish.
I'm never like a 0 but then again I'm never a 10. Shoulda asked me when LO was 6wks old (ahhhh!)

I would say a consistant 7.. It was a 9 or 10 at one point so it could be worse but certainly could be better.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
Probably 8. This first year as a parent- though wonderful- has been the most exhausting year of my life. LO is finally starting to mostly STTN, or at least I hope so, so hopefully that number will go down.

It's been better lately now that the kids are a bit older and more independent. I'd say I'm like a 6 at the end of the day? For a long while, it was like 8-9!
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
I'd say 1-2. I don't have a LO yet and I don't don't have to be at work until 9.
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Maybe a 3? I'm more tired now that I have a month to go, but I'm not exactly falling asleep at my desk or anything, and I'm sleeping really well, considering how pregnant I am. It's more that my body is just wearing out, versus I need naps. Not that I wouldn't turn one down

@char54: Yeah, the first trimester is a *take no prisoners* ordeal! (hugs)
