Title: Naptime anyone?
Post by: sgluckadoo on April 03, 2011, 04:10:33 pm
I love to take naps. I dont always like how I feel when I wake up from one though.

Anyone here like to take naps? How often do you nap? What time?

Of course I love to take naps!
But with a 20 month old girl, I can't take a nap whenever I want to but instead I take a nap when she takes a nap. :thumbsup:

Naptime is a good time.  I think that everyone should take a nap everyday.  It makes the day better.  It is proven that people are more productive if they have a naptime or a down time in the day.

Naps are amazing! But for me, I can't take any type of a 'power nap'. If I take a nap I'm out for hours, so I try not take naps because I already have enough trouble sleeping and if I take a nap I won't get to sleep later. But I love it when the kids take naps.  :thumbsup:

lol; this sounds so familiar! When my kids were younger they had to take a nap, most of the time I fell asleep before they did while I was rocking the youngest one though! Thankfully we lived on a farm and they would just turn cartoons on to watch though which would wake me up (hearing the television since during nap time it was turned off) anymore it seems as if I never get a nap!(All children are grown now, just busy!) :crybaby2:

i love naps, but unfortunately, my little "naps"
turn into hours of snoozing away, and then
i'm wide awake come bedtime!

i try to only nap on the weekends/my days off,
and i usually tend to do this in the late afternoon
or after i eat  :P

I love to nap. When I nap I sleep for hours though and it messes up my sleeping patterns. Which is why I'm up at 4:20 AM right now. And if I sleep too long I get headaches.

Naptime?  Whats that????  lol lol.....With 3 kids and mostly always on the go naptimes are a thing of my past!   The last few times I did take a nap, I woke up very grumpy and feeling worse than I did before I took a nap!   So I have given them up for now!!!!

Sometimes I'll take a nap, but I have to set my alarm on my phone to wake me.  Otherwise, I'll sleep too long and won't sleep through the night.

I love to take a nap when I can..but I agree that sometimes when I wake up I feel tired and useless for the rest of the day. I wish I could take one of those wake up refreshed kind of naps.

Yeah, I like to take naps too, but for some strange reason I wake up grumpy 9 out of 10 times.

When I am home I don't take naps.  Sometimes at work if there is a delay and I have to wait around I will take a nap especially if I had to get up early.

In my younger days, if I would take a nap, I would feel groggy and out of sorts for the rest of the day.  Now I am older, I love my afternoon naps (when I can get them).  I nap for anywhere from half an hour to an hour.  It is now very refreshing.

Now that I'm working, nap time is non-existent for me. On my days off I do happen to take a little snooze in front of the tv in my living room. Naps are the best because once you wake up from them you feel recharged.

I prefer to take naps. Sometimes I do not like the way I feel when i wake up from them too. I try to meditate but usually end up falling asleep so it turns into a nap.

I absolutely love naps! I usually work mornings, and come home around 2 or 3. Right after work, I snuggle up on the couch with a nice warm blanket, my cat, and the tv remote, and fall asleep in about 10 minutes. I do agree though that sometimes waking up from the nap is hard. I hate those times when I nap, and I wake up at just about sundown, but I am disoriented from the nap and I think it's the morning, and that I slept the whole night on the couch. I've heard people say that napping everyday isn't good for you because it messes with your "sleep cycle", but whatever. My sleep cycle is already screwed up!

I enjoy taking naps when Im tired of course. I just took one a few hours ago on the couch. I kinda feel refresh when I wake up but, I still feel like going back to sleep. Maybe, its because I have a red eyes and I don't get much sleep anyways.

That is what happens to me. In fact, i slept for 2 hours this afternoon after being up very late last night. I had to force myself up or I would keep sleeping. :P

I love my naps! They are usually 45 minutes to an hour, don't know why but I always just wake up after that amount of time. :)

I only take nap when I'm feel tire.  And that is a sign that I'm feeling sick too. :)

I gave up on naps, I never can get to sleep, I think so much about what I could be doing while I am just lying there. No nap time for me.  :peace:
