Yeah the night before is rough. But you will have a nice nap when you go in for your procedure.

I was very nervous about my first colonoscopy but it turned out better than I thought. The tip about trying to nap on the bathroom floor or nearby is the solid.

I slept in my bed but put a towel down in case of leaking or not waking up quite in time (didn't need it).

Same. It wasn’t the best night, but I slept ok. The worst was having to wake up early to finish the prep.

Same here.

I slept fine and in my own bed.

Probably not a ton sorry OP!

Shouldn't of had the pizza

I put a yoga mat on the floor in the bathroom and covered myself with a blanket in between toilet trips.

Ugh!!! Thanks for the replies. At least I know what I’m in for.

It’s been a few years since mine, but as best as I remember I threw a blanket on the floor next to the bathroom and dozed in-between trips.

I napped in the tub

Very little. You’ll be up most of the night running to the bathroom.

Have to go back to the bathroom*

Every time I come back to bed, I feel like passing gas within minutes and have to go back. Took dulcolax at 4 pm and MiraLAX at 6. Will the gas X I take at 10 let me sleep??
