S goes to sleep at 7, and I usually stay up another 3hrs to spend time with my Husband. I should be getting to sleep sooner as she usually wakes up for a feed anywhere from 1-3am but it's nice to get those few hours of calm together.

I don't but I have a SAHM who does this. I have started to get up a little earlier (DH leaves super early) before the kids to get a little me time each morning. But, if DS decides to wake up early, it doesn't happen hahaha

I'm terrible for this!!

E goes down at 7pm and always gives us a good chunk of sleep at the start of the night - at least 5 hours, sometimes 6. Then, after her first wake up, she gives us 3 hour chunks. I know I should go to bed early and take advantage of that first stretch but night after night I enjoy hanging out with DH so much I end up going to bed at 11.30pm and am then woken up by DD an hour and a half later!!!

That said, last night, I did go to bed early and I was woken by DH coming to bed and hour later and then, an hour and a half after that, by DD. I actually felt worse!

DH and I started going to bed 30 minutes earlier lately so we can each read and unwind, but together so we don't feel like we're completely ignoring each other... haha. Otherwise, I would DEFINITELY need some quiet down-time

I stayed up til after midnight this weekend to read and I totally regretted it the next day! I find that sleep is the #1 factor to my mood, though, so I prioritize it as much as I can.

This is definitely me... DS goes down around 7. And I never get to bed until 11/12... I've tried going to bed earlier, but even then I stay up reading a book/tv/etc. ton turn off my wired brain! I get about 7-8 hours of sleep though.
