How far before bed do you cut off liquids so you don't need to get up during the night?

Many thanks.

Are you asking for a friend? JK. I don't cut myself off at all.

Around 3 hours.

@ECBG About 90 minutes. I have to take meds at bed time so I take them and wait an hour to go to bed so all my bathroom visits are done. I never wake up to go to the restroom.

Lately I have to get up at the mystical hour between 2 and 3 am, no matter what my cut off time is, unfortunately.

No my friend, myself. I used to sleep like a rock!

@ECBG I drink a glass of water with supper around 7.

I go to bed anywhere between 10 & midnight &, of course, I go to the bathroom before I get into bed.

Then I get up at 1:30. 3:30, 5:45 & 8.

If I go to bed closer to 10 I will add an 11:30 into that.

I always guzzle a glass of iced tea right before I go to bed. If I don't, I need to wake up to get something to drink during the night.

I know....caffeine and liquid before bed is not normal. I have been doing this for years. I am also a night owl.

I very seldom get up to use the bathroom during the night. My sleep is more important. If I wake up, I tell myself to go back to sleep. I am okay while lying down, but when I sit up in the morning, I need to go right away.

Go to bed about midnight and drink until I hit the sack. I almost always have a Yeti of ice water by the bed in case I might wake up and want a drink.

It's still icy in the morning for when I wake up!
