anecdotal counterpoint: Last night was a session of midnight gluttony. I ate a 12" pizza, an order of fried calamari, lots of miscellaneous finger food, four beers and two mojitos. I was asleep about 2:30 am and awoke about 6 am. I drank lots of water so alcohol dehydration was not likely the cause. Usually I go to sleep around around 2 am and wake up at 7-8 am. Make of this what you will.

- kurtosis 17y agoWell I'm not sure how dangerous it really is to drink booze while gravid, but it's one form of self-experimentation I wouldn't recommend. There's plenty of real experimentation establishing the risk of things like fetal alcohol syndrome etc.
- ggruschow 17y agoYou may've awoken to urinate. Drinking a lot (of any liquid) is another good way to get yourself to wake up earlier. IIRC, people used to do it to prepare for pre-dawn raids. The not eating for a long time gets me up earlier. I didn't think it was "magic" or anything, just my body saying "get up & feed me."
- msluyter 17y agoMay have been the alcohol (despite the extra water). Alcohol consumption almost always makes me wake up early (and then be sleepy again several hours later).
- kurtosis 17y agoI always thought it was partial dehydration that caused the early waking after drink - Is there anything else. I haven't really looked into it, just curious.
