Isn't that awful? That's one of my problems as well.

I usually get about 4-5 hours of tossing and turning. But I am am seeing a neurologist for a diagnosed sleep disorder and hope things get better. I feel tired all the time (and pretty cranky too).

About 7 1/2 to 8 hours usually. I have noticed in the past year that I wake up a LOT more during the night than I ever have before. Sometimes it is hard to get back to sleep. I am 51 1/2 so I guess it could be perimenopause.

Yes it could. I suffered through sleeplessness in my early to mid fifties also. So glad those days (and nights) are over. Hope the quality of your sleep improves.

Thanks, so hopefully it only lasts a few years til meno is over? I seem to have several bad nights in a row and then I have one night where I sleep like a log for 8 hours to recover,lol.

Since DH and I retired, I typically am in bed for about 9 hours. It's not unusual for me to get up to go to the bathroom sometimes in the early a.m. hours, lie awake for a while, and then go back to sleep for a wonderful morning "nap".

Yes it is.

I feel like I get my ""workout"" done at night going to the bathroom.

Things have gotten better because I cut back my liquids in the evening hours but still...
