Understanding the Sleep-Wake Cycle

Lack of sleep is a common complaint but for many, falling asleep involuntarily during the day poses a very real and dangerous problem.

Understanding the Sleep-Wake Cycle

I hope Brianna pops in and sees this. If not, champagne works wonders

Who sleeps 7? If I get 5 it's a miracle

I miss the sleep of my youth...sigh

Me too Michelle, I am lucky if I stay asleep for longer than 2 hours at a time

Only 4 people voted but you see less than 4 hours.

Mine is not up there, 3 maybe 4

if it werent for my meds i wouldnt sleep at all

I've been awake now for 38 hours and counting...still computing away. I have to sleep tonite cuz tomorrow's my grandson's first birthday party and we have to go all the way to Phoenix. The drive on a good day wears me out. I'm still buzzing!

Have fun at the birthday party today Michele. I hope you got some zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzs

And we want pics when you get back

I slept last night...so I feel good this morning. I wish I had a camera.. but Nae has one, so she'll take good pics and upload them for me. I can't wait to kiss my babies!

And I can't wait to see the pictures

OMGoodnes....I can't wait to see the pictures either! When Mayson was eating his cake..he was so sleepy. He started rubbing one eye, and his head lay down on the table onto the cake crumbs and he kept rubbing his face back and forth in them. When he picked his head up, he grinned. Oh...my heart! We brought the rest of the cake home, so Dorian asked his Daddy if he could come home with us to eat cake. I'm so in love....

He sounds adorable Michele. Now quit laughing and post those pics

Michele

{AS SHE SHOUTS THIS OUT} I DON'T HAVE A CAMERA!!!! I have to wait patiently until Nae's sis in law emails her the video clips, and until Nae uploads and sends me her pics. Now...I'm speaking very calmly, slowly, not getting upset here...I can be patient..yes...yeS...yES..YES....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Oh...I feel so much better now. I guess I'll just hafta wait.

I didn't vote because it varies for me, most nights I get 7-8 hours of sleep, but I've gotten none on occasion also!! But I NEED my sleep, if I don't get the 7-8, I'm no good!!
