as I have begun to age (61) I find that I stay up later and sleep later in the morning, but haven't slept through the night since I had my first child over 30 years ago. That and 30+ years as a flight attendant has permanently mixed up my sleep/wake cycles...............and I do nap every once in a while.

Call me crazy but I have been sleeping better and my hot flashes have ceased!

How much do you take of each, this is on my list to try, I just turned 61 last week. I heard it was good for arthritis and cleaning out the arteries.

I haven't had a good nights sleep in weeks, I'm hoping tonight will be a good one I need it.

My regular sleep pattern is sleep a few hours, awake a few, sleep a few, etc. but some nights I'm not sleeping at all because my body is on edge, not in pain but very uncomfortable, and that's when 2 Adviil relaxes me enough to get back to my 'regular' pattern.

Exactly! How come we need to get up to use the bathroom more times during the night than when we're awake?!!

I'm 59 & usually sleep from 3am to 8 or 9am. I TRY to get a 1 hr nap in the afternoon, but that doesn't always work. I have NO problem sleeping ever & don't wake up during the night. (Oh the beauty of being retired!)
