DH and I were talking about sleep the other night. From the time I fall asleep until my alarm goes off in the morning I typically wake up maybe 2-3 times-either to go to the bathroom or just to roll over (and peek at the clock). DH said that 99% of the time he falls asleep and doesn't wake up until his alarm goes off-NEVER wakes up! He thinks it's weird that I wake up every night and I think it's weird that he doesn't. I honestly don't remember a night ever that I slept the entire night without waking. So....what type of sleeper are you??
**Oh, and don't factor kids into the mix! Obviously we both wake up now that DD is here (although I think he sleeps through a lot of it!)-we're talking no kid sleep!
Re: XP-Which Are You?
I normally sleep like a rock. Sometimes I will wake up an hour or so before the alarm, but no problem going right back to sleep. DH is not a good sleeper, and he gets jealous.
I swear I could sleep on demand- give me 10 minutes and I can crash anywhere!
For the Husband - he mainly sleeps through hte night, unless there is some disturbance to wake him (me or the dog)
For me - most nights, I sleep through the night - although maybe once a week, I wake up a few times... and I almost always wake up 10 minutes before the alarm - which might be the most aggravating thing ever.
I am the lightest sleeper ever. I even sleep with a big ol fan to drown out noises (car doors, snow plows, etc.) but I still wake up prob. 2-3X a night too I go to the bathroom 2X a night and then the 3rd is usually to just look at the clock. I also hit the gym at 5:30 at for classes every AM so I wonder if in the back of my head I am wondering if I am going to be late or something.
DH is just a disaster sleeping he flops all over the places (doesn't help my sleeping ) but I think he sleeps mostly through the night.
I usually sleep soundly right through the entire night.
DH gets up to pee, drink water, take a tums, etc - but not every night.
depending on how tired i am i will be a more sound sleeper. i.e. if i am really tired i will sleep more soundly (which is why i keep ds' monitor on HIGH lol), whereas if i am not tired at all i will wake up a million times.
I so rarely wake up. Pretty much only if I drink a big glass of water shortly before bed. Occasionally (once a month?) I recall waking for a split second and rolling over. I also Never remember dreams, which physiologically, I must have?
More often than not I wake up in the same exact position I fell asleep in. My mom and dad are both "comatose" sleepers, so i think I came about it honestly
I'm pretty sure I may just qualify for narcolepsy- at the very least, if I was a superhero, I think my power would be sleep
