How many times do you wake up in the middle of the night?

I normally wake up once or 2 times during the middle of the night, whether it's to drink water, or go to the bathroom, or something else altogether. I normally wake up because I don't get much sleep during the night, and if something disturbs me (like a nightmare or some horrible thing), I would wake up.

I usually sleep well in the night, only when be disturbed,I think to your condition,you need to drink some milk before you sleep,the better time is 1 hour before you get to bed.seondly,you may listen to some mild music before you sleep,it can help you sleep well,also,dont drink water before sleeping.wish you sleep well!

Thank you, meinana for your response. I will sleep well, providing that I don't wake up in the middle of the night lol.

I hardly wake up in between my sleep. Usually after the long hard working day I love to sleep undisturbed. Only my alarm disturbs the sleep and asks me to get up, then I miss the sleep. I used to see dreams but never got up with it. Have a sound sleep dear

Thank you for your kind response. I know that by tomorrow, there might be more responses, and I won't be able to respond to them all because my computer shuts down at 10:00 PM (all in part thanks to parental controls).

It really varies from night to night. Some nights, I don't wake up at all. While other nights, I might wake up a couple of times, and it might even take me a while before I can get back to sleep. So, for me, it all depends on the night and such.

For me, i wake up for at least 3 times in the night. Oftentimes it's not because i need to go to the bathroom, but instead things that keep on going in my mind. Sometimes i wake up because my mind is singing. Then i stay awake for about 30 minutes or 1 hour coz it's very hard for me to get my sleep back.

Oh. Well, that's bad, because less than 8 hours of sleep in a nighttime is very bad for the body both physically and mentally. What things go through your mind every night?

I never woke up in the middle of sleep.After a long tiring day I love to sleep with out getting disturbed.It's hard for any one to wake me up in the middle of the sleep.When some one wakes me up,I feel like shouting at them.

Ever since I started meditating before sleeping, I haven't woken up during the night.
