Alarm clocks.
So we have had alarm clock issues.... forever. But now with L, lack of sleep leads to even worse issues. So I'm curious:
1- do you set the alarm for the time you want to get up, or for an earlier time & keep hitting the snooze?
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for?
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own?
Re: Alarm clocks.
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for? About 30 minutes, but I don't snooze.
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own? We have 2 alarms, which he sets to blaring music. I set my iphone.
I must say no matter how early I wake up, I run late.
As for tj. I leave at 6:30 and just reset the actual alarm for him when I say bye.

I set it for about 30 mins before I really have to get up because I am a snoozer! DH sets his for 30 mins before when he thinks the baby is going to get up and 2 hours before he has to be at work. I always run late so you would think I would get up earlier but sleep is so nice!
1- do you set the alarm for the time you want to get up, or for an earlier time & keep hitting the snooze?
There's a bit of a buffer in there, but only for like 1 snooze
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for?
10-15 minutes
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own?
Share. I get up first and get ready a bit and then I come wake him by 7:30
Dex gets up at 5:00am and if he sleeps until 5:01 Nettie starts whining to be fed. I no longer use an alarm clock but am looking forward to needing one again someday.
1- do you set the alarm for the time you want to get up, or for an earlier time & keep hitting the snooze?
I set the alarm for the time I want to get up.
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for?
I do the actual time. DH sets his for 15 minutes earlier and then snoozes. It drives me crazy.
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own?
We have separate alarms. It's actually pretty annoying because DH snoozes so on the days he walks the dog he sets the alarm for 6:30 and snoozes till 6:45 but I'm up once the alarm goes off so I get the joy of either getting up early or lying in bed until I actually want to get up at 6:45 to shower. On the days I walk the dog he doesn't even hear my alarm go off at 6:15. He sets his for 7 and gets up around 7:20.

2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for? I set it for 30 mintues before i have to get up
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own? i get up first and he is usually watching tv by the time i leave
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for? About 30 minutes. I generally hit snooze (9min) two or more times.
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own? I get up earlier so my alarm is set. He doesn't need one. He just gets up sometime after I leave. He will set his phone alarm if he needs to get up earlier than me.
**Extra info - I LOVE my alarm clock. It is a nature sounds alarm clock so I wake up to a babbling brook every morning. The longer it runs the louder it gets so you will wake up gradually. I hate those alarm clocks that sound like sirens.

1- do you set the alarm for the time you want to get up, or for an earlier time & keep hitting the snooze? i snooze, so does TJ
2- how long in advance of the actual time you want to get up do you set the alarm for? usually 2 snoozes (20 minutes) but its been getting a little worse lately. but recently, i've been setting my alarm for 6:15 and TJ is setting his for 6:20, and we both snooze, so an alarm is going off every 5 minutes. i put an end to that, though.
3- do you and DH (if applicable) share an alarm, or set your own? we each set our own phone.
1. Yes and I get up at 5:45am with DH
2. 15mins
3. We set our own but still get up at the same time!
1. I hit snooze for 30-45 minutes
2. 30 minutes
