    Default When is your "bed time"?

    I have been thinking lately that me and DH are weird. We go to bed at 9pm everynight. DH is up at 4:45 every morning for work and I'm up at 6:30 with the kids so by 9 we are burned out and just ready to sleep. Sometimes on the weekend we'll stay up a bit later to watch a movie together but that doesn't happen that often.

    So what time do you usually go to bed?

    I'm up to get ready for work at 6:30, so I go to bed at 10pm. Except on weekends, when I usually get to bed by midnight...I'm still up by 7:30 the next morning though.......

    We usually go to bed after the Colbert Report at 12, although sometimes I'll switch over to Conan afterwards and stay up another half hour or so. Weekends we are up much later.

    My kids don't get up until about 9, so neither do I. I have no idea how my husband gets up at 6 every morning and goes to work.

    I usually go to bed anytime between 10:30pm - 12:30pm, it really depends what's on TV, lol DD goes to bed at 10:30 and everyone is usually up the same time around 7:15am, except on weekend of course.

    I try to be in the bed by 11 PM. I get up around 6:45 most mornings. I need at least 7 hours asleep at night to feel good the next day.

    ~11pm. I'd be asleep by 9:30 if we could get the kids down that early. They take after their dad, night-owls. They get sleepy around 10:30, we're working on that. DH gets up at 5:15 to get to work at 6am. The kids get me up around 7. We've been successful in the past getting their bedtime to 9 but then they wake up at 6. I can't do that. I'm so jealous of moms whose children sleep 11 hours at night. I don't know how DH gets by on so little sleep. Must be the Navy training!~

    I usually get to bed around 10:30-11:30, depending on what I have going on. Gotta get up at 6:20 each morning so I also try to get at least 7 hours sleep.

    Between 11 and 12pm..I work 2nd shift and don't get home till a little after 10pm so most nights I am still wide awake from work and need time to wind down. I get up every morning with dh at 7am though even though I don't have to stay and I stay awake and do whatever needs to be done.
    I like getting up early and get stuff done and over with.

    Anywhere from 9pm onwards. It doesn't matter what time I go to bed, I invariably have to get up at 2am to go to the loo at which point my wakes up too and we have to have about half an hour of play time before she's sleepy again.
    The alarm goes off at 6.30 and I normally crawl out of bed at about 6.45 on week days and, well, quite a bit later on weekends because I just love my bed too much

    I typically get to bed around 11pm, and up again at 5:45am. I used to have the worst insomnia and wouldn't be able to get to sleep until about 2am or 3am, so I was only getting 3 hours of sleep a night. Since being pregnant though, I feel like I could sleep forever... lol

    Depends on when my classes are and how much of my life a project or research paper is taking up. Anywhere from midnight (early) to 3am.
