Bed time?

slstine19

Okay.  We post how much time LO's get to sleep.  But what time do you go to bed?  How many hours of sleep do you get?  Is this more, the same, or less than before LO?

Me-I used to be a night owl and stay up late.  Now, as soon as I put LO down I am ready to go to bed.  So I have gone from 8 hours of sleep to 10 hours.  I love not having to get up to pump.  Plus, DH gets up earlier to get ready so he can feed LO breakfast while I get ready now.  So, we have basically switched our wake times.

DS usually is asleep between 8 and 8:30. If I have to get up for work the next morning at 6, I'm usually in bed by 9:30. If I don't have to work, I'm in bed by 11, and DS wakes up around 7:30 usually

I'm up at 5 and in bed between 9 and 10. Hannah goes to bed between 7 and 7:30 and wakes up about 6:307. She still wakes up once or twice at night.

Avery goes to bed at 7. Since I SAH and don't have to get up early, I go to bed between 10 and 12.

ETA: we are up by 8:30.

We usually aim to get Vito in bed between 7 and 7:30. We have been more relaxed about it lately and follow his sleepy signs. 8:00 is the latest on weeknights. I try to get to bed by 10:00. We all have to be up by 6:30 to start our day.

I am bad...it seems I am doing good if I get there by 11.  Midnight is my cutoff, although I still sometimes exceed that.  And half the time, I bust out the Kindle Fire as soon as I get into be to read, FB, bump, WWF, etc.  I get stuff done after Stella is down for the night - typically between 8:30 and 9.  And sometimes (like the other night) I knocked out three loads of laundry before bad.  Actually, I could do that every night and never be caught up on laundry.  And most days I am up by 6:30 but if it is a day that DH was off the night before, I might be up between 5 and 5:30 so I can go to the gym before work.  I am lucky to get 6 hours a night.

During the week I go to bed at 10, so I get to sleep about 8 hours IF I fall asleep quickly.  Sometimes I read in bed too, so it's more like 10:30-11.

On the weekends though I stay up WAAAAY too late.  I need to stop that.

I wish my lo would go bed at 7ish. On a work day I'm up at 5am so I try to be in bed by 9-9:30pm. Lo goes to bed at 9pm. Not much wiggle room for down time. I'm always sleepy after chasing around a toddler and doing some studying.

C goes to bed at 7:30, DH and I are in bed by 10, 10:30 at the latest. Both of us are up before 6am.  On weekends, a little later, but I'm still up with C by 7:30.

We usually put the boys down between 9/9:30. We stay up till about 12/12:30 to have some wind down peaceful mommy & daddy time whether it be watching tv, talking, or the fun stuff! Depending on my schedule, they usually sleep till 8:45/9 & that's when I'll get up. On the weekends DH will get up with them & let me sleep in till about 11.
