[quote=Anonymous]I sleep in probably 2-3 times a month (husband takes the kids for a morning) and each time I sleep a solid 12 hours straight. I need about 9-9.5 hours a night to be fully rested, and always have. I talked to my doctor about it in my late 20s (pre kids) when it seemed like everyone but me had outgrown sleeping until noon on the weekends, she ran some tests and basically told me everything looked fine and needing anywhere from 6-10 hours a night is in the range of normal. Of course with two kids under 4, I don't get 9 hours a night, so catching up is key. Generally I'm asleep by 11:30 and awake at 7:30, so I do get a solid 8 a night. I wish it was more. We sleep trained aggressively at 4 months, and I just hate the newborn phase because missing sleep is the WORST part of parenting (at least so far) for me. [/quote]
