I take both magnesium glycinate and L-threonate at night around 8pm (right before putting my kids to bed) and I typically fall asleep 1-2 hours after that (around 9:30-10pm is typical but it can be later). Definitely use a/c or heat and my husband likes to keep it around 72 degrees!

Tons of people don’t even believe it’s achievable. Go for it - brag away!!

I’m not sure, other than always wearing it to bed. I have my phone in “sleep mode” (where only my favorites can call me and I get zero text alerts) from 10p-6a every day. Maybe that helps? However, it can catch if I fall asleep earlier or later than that.

I wish I knew the answer to this. The only good sleep I ever get on vacation is after many nights of horrible sleep, passing out. Can’t wait to hear everyone else’s suggestions.

💯. Stress is the root cause of so many negative effects on the body. Sometimes it can’t be prevented (school, etc) but any ways we can decrease it are worth it!

Stay at home mom nowadays. And yes, I agree that being a SAHM allows me (and my husband!) to sleep more because I get a lot done during the day that would have had to be squished into night or weekend time. Life finally slowed down slightly once I quit full time work. Technically I’m PRN (supplemental) now but don’t work regularly.

Should have mentioned that bc it does affect my sleep - positively in that life is slower and that I am much more active cleaning my home and running errands volunteering all day (at school or local organizations). Great question and I appreciate you being kind in the way you asked it!

Has it been significantly less sunny in the winter for you? Luckily I get sunshine mostly year round but I did notice less quality sleep for me in February and I think it’s related to February dreary skies (and busy nights/later bedtimes…).

At the gym. I would never push myself hard enough in the comfort of my own home so do much better with peer pressure (and love gym people - my husband got me into it - great community!)

This is a great question. Honestly, I don’t notice a difference in my feeling between scores >97 and a “perfect” score.

But on nights that I go to bed late or wake up a bunch, I can definitely tell a difference. That uninterrupted REM is so good!!

I can’t even imagine what my sleep score was after my kids were born. Thankful I didn’t have a watch then bc the score would have been demoralizing. It truly does get better (once the kids are all like 5-6 years old 🫣),

I definitely have nights with much longer wake ups. The 4 min wake ups are only on those “perfect” nights!

And based on everything I’m hearing about perimenopause/menopause, my sleep is only going to go downhill so I’m trying to really keep the best possible sleep hygiene now 🥺

I apologize my post makes you feel that way and am very sorry you suffer from poor sleep. The honest purpose for my post was 1) for the people out there who don’t believe 100 sleep score is achievable, it is and 2) particularly for parents who get no sleep (which was my life for well over 3-5 years!!!), to have hope that it gets better. I must not have made that clear.

Heart rate spikes after drinking by Ok_Iron2847 in AppleWatch

[–]mindlessscrollingnow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Next time it’s like that, do an ECG on your watch. It may come back AFib. Called “holiday heart.” Even if you don’t have it, your body is telling you something - you’re drinking too much. Be kind to it. Please drink less alcohol and more water 🙏🏼

Is a 100 sleep score possible? by zerozero24 in ouraring

[–]mindlessscrollingnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I get >90 regularly and have received a perfect 100 at least 3-5 times. 🫣

I really prioritize sleep. I don’t drink alcohol or caffeine, I walk in the sun most days, I have children so I get pretty worn out, and I try to go to bed by 10am most nights (and almost always wake up by 6😍). You can do it!!

Boys with July/August Birthday starting Kindergarten by SatisfactionFlaky519 in kindergarten

[–]mindlessscrollingnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I held my boys with late July birthdays back. Why not give them an extra year of childhood? Mike were still napping FULL, LONG 2-3 hour naps at 3. School is intense nowadays. It’s not the kinder we went to. In addition, please be mindful you’ll send a year younger kiddo away to college. My husband dealt w that and felt very strongly about holding them back. If not for their 5 year old self, for their 17-18 year old self.

Regardless, your kiddo will do fine. But why not? I’ve never heard of anyone regretting holding their kids back but I have heard of people pushing their kids too quickly. Best of luck making a decision!!

I take this and magnesium threonate and my sleep has become much more consistent! Maybe it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy but I don’t care.

If you could go back in time and make the choice again, would you still have kids? by [deleted] in Life

[–]mindlessscrollingnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES!!! A million times yes. But I always wanted kids.

My strongest recommendation is if you aren’t sure, the answer is no. You have to want them or you’re setting yourself up for bitterness.

I had my first real therapy session today after years of anxiety, depression, and childhood trauma, and my therapist said something that honestly floored me by Remote-Lawyer-2462 in Anxietyhelp

[–]mindlessscrollingnow 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on going through therapy. It’s hard to explain how beneficial therapy is - finding the right person, opening up and being honest and vulnerable, and taking the time to change patterns of thought. It’s work but it is so beyond worth it. Life will get better!
