You should talk to your Dr. You should be getting 7-8 hours a night but from the sounds of things you are not getting a full restful night sleep. Try putting the kids to bed early and relax before going to bed. Make it a routine!

8 hours is recommended, 6 isn't enough for you. If you've been only getting 6 hours a night for a few nights then you will have a sleep debt that you need to catch up on by sleeping in a bit, or getting early nights. Try having a nap during the day too - people who take naps are less stressed.

I know that they always say 8 hours but I find to properly function the human body needs or should try to get at least 9. Any more than that though you wake up feeling like a zombie and it ruins your whole day.

lots of mums get that. been up all day, running around all the time, it's easy to feel tired. maybe try about 12 hours sleep if possible. go to bed earlier.

If you can get some good naps in between, that will help you recharge your energy batteries. Bach Flower Essences are a good choice. See the following link:

and help yourself with the right combination of flower essences.

your problem may be more than just sleep. you need at least 6 hrs of uninterrupted sleep each night. see your doctor to make sure that you have no medical conditions that might keep you from getting rest.
