    I get less because of my 10 month old who wakes up to eat several times a night. Wish I could get 7 hours. It's been well over a year since I was able to sleep that long in one time without waking. Miss those days, but love my kids. I still function ok. I am used to it now but there are days I definitely need more sleep.

    I am to that age, 50 where I find its harder to get to sleep at night, or I find myself waking during the night.
