How many hours of sleep do you average per week?

I have posted a new article about The Benefits of Sleep . See how these hints work for you. Then, return to this forum and tell me about it.

So, as I have gotten older and become a mom, my time for sleeping has become less. That said, with age, I have become wiser. I know that I need at least 6 hours of uninterrupted night rest and a mid-day nap makes me a top notch mom & all around happy camper. The frequency of me obtaining this lofty goal is once a week. So, how are the rest of you managing?

I sleep at least 9 hours a night if not more. I have always needed lots of sleep and find as I get older sometimes I need a nap in the day. Our grandaughter moved back in with us and for sure now I really need all my sleep or I will be grumpy!

9 hours sounds divine. I totally understand getting grumpy. I generally start to warn my children that the Grump Monster has entered the building around 8pm (LOL).

Thanks for sharing!

I average 8 ish- and I can still enjoy sleeping in at age 40! I feel blessed for that!

Sleeping in. Yum! That sounds simply delicious.

Thanks for sharing Alissa.

7 & 1/2 hours everyday, or better say every night. I can't take a day time nap on weekdays because I am at my workplace that time.

7.5 hours is great. Studies say that adults should get 6-8 hours of rest per night. Uninterrupted sleep is best.

Thanks for sharing!

48hours maybe, every day for 8hours,

Awesome. 8 hours a day, how heavenly.
