    I get about 7-7.5 a night usually. Sometimes continuous but rarely do I sleep through the night. Pre-kids I couldn’t function with under 7 hours but now I’m pretty good with 7 hours.

    I think it depends on how you feel on the amount of sleep you are getting not necessarily how much sleep you get

    8 hours in bed but not 8 hours of quality sleep. Maybe 4 hours of quality sleep I would guess, at most.

    Interestingly enough, now that it's almost 2 months since I posted here, I have successfully been living on 6-6.5 hours of "sleep" each night. I try to be getting into bed at the 7 hour mark, leaving some time to relax, and then able to be lights out going to sleep no later than the 6 hour mark.

    Other than a couple nights that cut short (one night I just slept like crap - weather changed and it was way too hot in my room and I hadn't hooked up the AC yet), I've done pretty well overall and haven't been cranky or moody.

    It does require a strict routine though, which can be difficult with my night owl boyfriend who gets to sleep for 9+ hours a night and doesn't have to get up until I'm already done with my first job of the day....but other than that, it's worked out just fine.

    7 to 8 but at times it's broke up cause I live with cats that wake me up and a puppy.

    Usually 7-9 depending on when I went to bed, etc. I also tend to go to bed around 8 most nights. I've made myself a sleep routine to help get me to sleep faster/stay asleep because if I don't get enough sleep I am the worst person ever lol.

    I also wake up between 4-5am most days.

    I’m lucky if I get six hours. More often I hover around 5h 15m, and that’s riddled with multiple disturbances an hour.
