I used to set an alarm on my laptop to go off at the same time as my phone, so I would have to walk into the other room in order to turn it off. These days I tend to wake up several hours before my alarm goes off, unable to return to sleep.
My daughter is 2 months old so she’s not mobile yet, but this is definitely something I’m dreading in the future lol. Right now all I have to worry about is being woken up by her fussing in her sleep every half hour (she sleeps in a bassinet at the foot of the bed), but we’ve gotten better at discerning what merits actually getting up vs letting her self-soothe.
To answer the original question, though, having a child will train you to be able to wake up in a matter of seconds…
ah, neat. NFC.

Same. It’s rough. My 4 year old woke me at 3am this morning. That was it. Just couldn’t get back to sleep.
