How many hours do you get? I usually get about 7 hours but am working on getting more. Just wondering how many hours of sleep you get and is that enough for you?

    Somewhere between 5 and 7 hours usually. Six or seven is usually enough, but five and I'm a foggy mess.

    In between a toddler and school/work, not enough. I'd say between 4-6 hours. I go to bed early but I always find myself boning up on material I'm struggling with instead of sleeping.

    Well right now only about 3-4 :( Because I am raising 9 puppies on bottles. But used to when I slept on average I got around 6-8 a night depending on how busy I had been that day.,

    Subjectively, 8 hours a night, but only 6 hours of that is actually sleeping according to my BodyMedia armband. But I think it counts every time I roll over as waking.

    I aim for 9. That is what my body needs right now. Any less and I am super tired and any more I am super tired....

    When my cats aren't being jerks and running around the room and over me, 9 hours. But if the cats are being jerky, 6 hours. I function better when I have 8-9 hours of sleep.

    It's preferred to get around 6-7 hours of sleep per night. Any less and you start having a bigger appetite.
    I get probably around 4 hours of sleep, haha. It's horrible.

    10-12 hours per night as of late. Back before I started lifting, I would often function on 3-4 hours per night just fine. Not so much anymore.

    The harder I work out, the more tired I am. Plus when there's a lot on my mind I don't sleep as soundly, so I have to plan for more sleeping time. I try to get at least 7 hours and shoot for 8, but there's been plenty of times I've been up later than I should've been and still had to get up early the next morning.

    Not enough:yawn:

    I work part time 2nd shift as a nurse, so I can't fall asleep before midnight even if I'm not working.
    I get up at six am to take my daughter to school.

    If I can sleep in until 9:00 am then I'm better.

    Sometimes I nap but that messes up my sleep at night...:grumble:
