What time do you go to bed?

[DandDoodlz67]

Just interested really
chatting to a few friends today was a bit shocked as few said they are up to midnight/1am and then up with the kids 6:30/7am (averaged 6 hours)
my mum said she goes to bed at 10:30 and wakes up at 8!!! (Retired) seems excessive!
I am knackered by 9:30 but up with my baby at 6am (and sometimes in the night!)

This is me too!

I've always needed about 9 hours and genuinely can't function on less. It's so frustrating.

If I go to bed at 10-11 then will wake at 7 but never any later.

I'm an early bird

I try to go bed for 11pm sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I feel like the evening is the only time the house is quiet (10 dogs household of 6) and I get carried away with whatever I'm watching. Also have two puppies that I try to let out as late as possible so they don't toilet in there crates. I feel dead every morning and that's getting up at 7:30am.

Bed 9.30-10 and asleep by 10.30, up with the kids at 5.30. I find that no matter what time I go to sleep, getting up at 5.30 is always exhausting!

I usually go to bed 10.30/11.00 and read for about an hour, Meanwhile OH is downstairs watching the programmes he enjoys that I don't. So we usually go to sleep around midnight. I'm retired but still can't sleep in very late. I usually wake around 7.30, bring a coffee back to bed then get up about 9.

9pm but my alarm goes off for work at 4.50am.
Annoyingly even if I stay up until 1pm I'm still awake by 6am!

12 to 2

Up between 6 and 7

If anyone has any hot tips on how to persuade my inner teen that I need to
go to bed I would love to hear them. Am constantly tired..

I have to get up at 5am, I aim to be in bed by 9 to read until 9.30. I'm aiming for 7 hours sleep, but rarely get that, it's more like 6 hrs 30 on average.

Bed 10:30ish up by 7 with toddler. Need a good 8 hours if possible!

Bed about 10.15 h 10.30 ish , read for about an hour so lights out around 11.30 . Wake up 6- 7 am.

Pre-DC I was a proper night owl. As a teenager I'd stay awake until some ridiculous hour and not want to get up in the morning... I did change slightly as I grew up but if I didn't have to get up in the morning then I'd stay up until 3am sometimes.

When DD was little and was up a lot in the night and woke up early I was in bed by 9:30pm. I HATED it. When she started sleeping better I made my bedtime 10:30pm and stuck to it for a few years. Then we had DS and went back to shit sleep for awhile, although admittedly not as long as the first time. Forced myself into bed at 9:30pm whilst we got through that.

I always intend to go to bed at 10:30, but I crave my evenings so much that I'll often stay up to 11:30pm, sometimes midnight... I regret it massively the next morning as both DC get up at 7:30am precisely, and therefore so do I!

9.00.pm

But then i am up at 5.30.am, 5,00.am in summer.

No kids. We love our sleep and work long hours sometimes, weekday bedtime 10pm and wake up around 6.30am. We would go to bed later on weekends and have a lovely lie in though! I cannot have less than 8h sleep, i would not function properly 😂

I usually go upstairs about 1030 but fall asleep about 1-2 and up at 630/7 with kids.

Bed at 1030-11ish.
Often don’t wake up until about 830.

No small children and not working!

Totally depends on whether it’s school holidays or not. During the school holidays (now) then I’ll usually go to bed between 12-1 and up between 8-9 - slept longer last night and didn’t wake up until my alarm went off at 9.30am! I do need my sleep but I really really struggle with going to sleep early. In the term time I try and get to bed between 11-12 and up again at 7am. I’m always tired but if I go to bed before 11 I just lie awake unless I take something (melatonin)

Bed at 8/8.30. Asleep by 9, up at 5.30/6 with one year old

10 usually, up at 8.50

When I'm tired.

Not being facetious but sometimes I go at 7.30pm, sometimes 9.30pm, sometimes midnight and sometimes 1am. Not very often later than that though.

I get up at 6 for work but wake anytime from 3.30am onwards regardless of what time I went to bed.

10pm til 5am (when husband wakes me up on his way out, otherwise I’d sleep til 8am).

Not until after midnight as I wait up to do my small person's midnight medications, he has them again at 6am and in between midnight and 6 he will usually need turning at least once. He often wakes between 4 and 5am for the day although the last couple of days he hasn't woken until just before 6am. My Fitbit app says my sleep pattern is that of a hedgehog!

10-11 but usually can't sleep until about 1am and much later when I've got pms.

On work days I sleep 9/10-5 but on weekends I don’t really have a routine.

Work annihilates me so on workdays I've been known to be asleep by 8pm - usually no later than 9.30pm. Up at 6am.

Bed about midnight or a bit later, then I read for a bit. Wake up at 7.30ish if not a school day (my daughter has just left now, but will start local course next year).
I'd say I get about 6 1/2 hours of sleep a night and occasionally take a nap mid afternoon to make it up.
