What time do you...
...get up in the morning? What time do you go to bed at night?
We're up between 6-7am and go to bed around 10:30-11pm. I used to think this was not enough sleep, but from reading other posts, we might be getting more sleep than others

Re: What time do you...
That is going to vary from person to person. I need more sleep than DH and am sleeping better now that she is STTN.
That said, I am in bed by 9PM and up at 5AM. I do ok on 8 hours, great on 9. DH on the other hand goes to bed at 11:30 and is up at 6AM. He needs much less than I do.
met DH 1995 ~ married DH 2006 ~ completed our family 2008
Life is good!
Out of bed by 6 am. I am usually asleep by 10:30pm. DD sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night crying. I don't feel like I get enough sleep but we are doing much better than last year when she was waking up 4+ times a night to nurse. It was horrible.
Up @ 6; in bed 10:30/11, asleep by 11:30.
I *should* go to bed @ 9:30/10, but eh, doen't happen very much. I'm good w/ 6 hours, I'm great w/ a little over 7.
DH goes to bed at 9:30/10 and gets up at 6:30.
DH and I usually go to bed between 10 and 11. I usually get up between 5:30 and 6 because I enjoy the "alone" time early in the morning, to get some things done and relish in the quiet (DH gets up at 6:30).
DD goes to bed at 8:30 and gets up at 7.
Asleep sometime between 9-10:30 - it depends on how much I want to have a little relax/me time versus how much I want sleep.
Out of bed sometime between 6-6:20
DS is eating 2x night, around midnight and 3-4 am, though, so I haven't had a stretch of sleep longer than 3.5 hours in over six weeks now. This also doesn't count the other times he wakes up, or at least noisily stirs. We did some sleep training so now he usually gets himself back to sleep, but I'm still awake, just lying in bed.
I'm desperate for longer segments of sleep, but am reluctant to try to phase out those feedings because he's definitely business nursing and not just comfort nursing.

The kids go to bed by 8 - 8:30 and I try to make it to bed by 10 pm.
We wake up at around 7 - 7:15am
Work days, I'm up by 6am and usually sleeping around 10pm; C just started STTN last week (whee! for now anyway...). DH gets up about 7am and stays up a bit later than me.
On weekends I stay asleep until C wakes up, usually between 7 and 7:30; DH usually gets up around 8.
In bed around 9:30, up by 5:30. DD still gets up 2-3 times a night. Usually I'm pretty rested. Lately I've been dragging.
normally i go to bed at about 10:30 and wake up at 6:15.
the past few days (since becoming pregnant and being exhausted all the time) i'm in bed by about 9 and wake up at 6:30.
DH usually only sleeps about 6-7 hrs a night.
DS usually sleeps from 8pm-7am.
I try go to bed by 9:30 most nights. Up at 5:30 on work days, and DS usually gets up that early on my days off, too. I am going to get some black-out shades for his room to see if that buys me a little more sleep in the a.m.
I have a blog and it isn't about babies or motherhood or my life. It's just about eating, drinking, and traveling: Explore and Eat
DS - Bed @ 730pm-8pm, up @ 630am
Me - Bed @ 930pm-1030pm, up @ 530am-6am
I'm usually in bed by 10, asleep by 10:30, out of bed at 6. Some nights we make it thru the night kid-free, but most nights we end up with one or both kids in our bed.
On the weekends, sadly, it's exactly the same. I guess I'm so adjusted to this schedule that my body just wakes up at 6am. I only set an alarm clock if I have a plane to catch!
August-May: up at 5:45, bed by 10:30ish
Summer: up around 7:00, bed around 11:00
Mom, why are you washing my feed in the sink?!

Down at 11am, up at 7am usually
That is 8 hours, but I still find myself getting completely exhausted every couple of months and needing to get some extra sleep for a night or two.
I think I could always sleep more! I do not function for long on much less than 8 hours a night.
