Bed Times

No this one isn't about the kiddos. I am finding it really hard to go to bed at a decent hour since my surgery. My parents are pretty much taking care of the kid's every need, so they are not causing me to stay awake. At 8:30 here and my eyes are watering, Im yawning. I am fighting it like crazy, but I am so sleepy. So back to the poll. When do you go to bed?

10pm.

Generally 10-11, but there are nights when I pass out at 9. It all depends on the day.

Dudes, I went to bed at 6:30 last night! WTF?

I need to, but I feel so bad.

If I had a reason and the means to go to bed at 6:30, I would.

If you sleep at 6.30 pm what time do you wake up? I sleep at different times but overall the max I'll stay in bed is 8 hours. Only on days I am too tired I probably will stay put longer but that's rare. Hell 8 hours is rare for me theses days anyways.

My point being if your total sleep in within the reasonable hours 7-8-9 whatever is typical for you then perhaps it's just a sleep time habit issue. But if you think you are sleeping unusually long then there could be a medical reason and perhaps worth discussing with the dr. I'm not saying it necessarily be a concern as it could just be the surgery but just giving you my perspective.

9:15-9:40 most nights. I wake up at 5. The kids go to bed at 7:30.

Eta DH and I usually talk for a bit once we're in bed so I'm up a little later.

"Go to bed" is the operative phrase for me...  I often pass out on the couch trying to watch something on TV around 9/10, but might wake a few times, and if I wake up after a decent 'nap', it's a while before I can actually fall back to sleep.

8-9pm. I've got no shame about it either. I'm up for the day between 5-5:30a, and baby is waking me 2-3x a night. I need my rest.

Gosh y'all I promise I am not trying to post and run.

Usually 10-11....madam is in bed by 8:30, then we watch an hour or so of TV (usually 1-2 episodes of whatever show(s) or a film), I pump and we make a cup of tea to take to bed.
Usually I read for half hour in bed whilst I drink my tea
ETA: Em STTN 95% of the time and has since 6 weeks old, and we're up between 7 and 8, depending on the day of the week

LO goes to bed around 8. I always say I'm going to stay up and be productive, but no. I usually throw the bottles in the sink, lay out clothes for the next day, shower, and I'm in bed by 9. Then I always plan on watching a show, and I'm asleep in 5 minutes.

I would totally go to bed at 6:30 if I could. Embrace it.

This.
