Babies... I can still remember when my sister was born :( i felt sorry for my parents....good luck :)
She's still keeping you guys up JDB? Wow, she's going to be like me I think. I put my mother through hell too because I wouldn't stay asleep.
Ya Colleen, shes getting better but has a little way to go yet. Wife and I are still taking shifts I'll stay up till bout 1:00 or so then she will take over from there.. 5AM comes to early.....
I think the biggest thing now is she gets herself wedged in a corner and can't turn out of it, If we can get there soon enough we can just pull her back to the center of the crib all's good but if we don't it might take some time.
my daughters baby was like that and his pediatrician told her to put him in a bedroom of his own. it worked for her.
6 hours= my lucky night
5 hours= my usual night :(
But I tend to reward myself in the weekends by sleeping at least 8 hours :)

Thank you melandrupert, 7/8 hours, that's not bad at all, but clear your mind, don't think about work and those other things. Appreciate the input.
thanks spaceghost I am quite sad I forgot to mention that I have to take a note book with pen to bed in case I have to jot down so I dont forget in the morning I do get better sleep when I am not working as my job is not all the time "thank God" as I wouldnt get sleep at all ha ha, I have tried to clear my mind but it stills creeps in
Man I remember those days, went through that 3 times, but it was worth it all. Thanks my friend for your input.

Thanks Spaceghost I'm 47 and shes our first one... surprise!! but I love her to death, best thing to ever come along in my life.. And damn shes cute, people says she looks like me. wait till she gets my mustache we'll be twins LOL..
I'm so happy for you. Love her, cherish her and spoil her rotten because they grow up SO fast. Make sure she shaves that mustache LOL.
Thank you arryoudini, I appreciate that compliment. I was raised by my grandparents and they MADE SURE that we respected people, saying yes mam, no mam, yes sir ,no sir etc. ALWAYS thank people for things they do for you. It's in me and my wife and I made sure our children and grandchildren were brought up the same way.
4 hours.
5 if I really need it.

SG is right Colleen :) . Your body needs more than four hours a night. even if you feel tired and groggy, with a little exercise those feelings will go away. and your up and ready to go :)
The same. 7 days a week I get the same sleep. Sometimes I'm lazy and stay in bed for 6 hours but then my back starts to hurt so I get up. My body is just not use to laying prone for so long.
I agree with you Ms.S
I get grumpy, i stumble, i'm half awake, i get sleepy in the lectures, and i get poked by friends every minute to stay awake.. I try to sleep as much as i can peacefully.

There are several studies on this lately, I know they are now linking the amount of sleep you require to be functional to genetics. I wish I could operate on only 4 hours like Colleen.
"I get grumpy, i stumble, i'm half awake, i get sleepy "
This sounds like me if I get more than 5 hours.

he ha . Your lucky then Colleen, like Leeroy said, i wish i can be like you :) that would give me an hour extra every day to do left out papers ;)
Maybe i should start practising :D

No dh, it's not something you can practice, lol. Sleep til you wake up. Your body knows what it needs. :)
That's true. i think i'll keep to my routine... i don't think i can sleep any less than 5 anyway :)
on average 1-2 on a good night with all bs aside sleeping dont come easy when your mind wont rest.

I hope you don't try sleeping pills, I heard they can be addictive. Try doing what arryoudini says, maybe that will help. Carmaxable, thank you for your input.
I've always envied folks who could sleep 7 or more hours a night....to me that would be heavenly! I myself sleep from 3 to 5...I'll wake up and start thinking too much to be able to go back to sleep or I can't get to sleep most nights due to excessive brain activity...can't seem to shut it off! There are worse things in life though....as long as I feel rested I'm happy!

Hi ole hipster, you tell that brain to let you get some sleep LOL. Well I'm glad that you feel rested though. Thank you so much for the info.
Hi Spaceghost! The more I tell the brain to stop the more it makes me think! Have tried visualization and even melatonin....helps my brother but gives me nightmares!
O I'm sorry to hear that gives you nightmares, maybe you'll find some other way to get more sleep, I hope you can.
I don't like going to bed at night. I hate it! there's always something I want to do like come to akaqa or read or watch television. I refuse to look at the clock late at night. My husband is the same as me and he'll say, "Itsmee, it's 2:30 am, we've got to go to bed!" so I brush, floss, wash, gown up, and go to my sleeping place. I have to take 2 xanax to go to sleep. Otherwise I just lay there and stare. I get up at 8:30. that's 6 hours. not bad. sometimes I nap.
