Some times I am a super Heavy Sleeper… Other Times I’m an extremely light sleeper. I guess that is part of the Role of Mommy. I swear I could wake up every time Lil C would move. I remember how hard it was when to keep my alarm clock loud enough so I could hear it, but quiet enough that it wouldn’t wake lil c when he was a baby and I had to go to work. I wish I knew about LARK a few years back.
A little about Lark: Designed with sleep experts and available across all iOS platforms, our silent alarm wakes you (and only you) with patent-pending soothing vibrations. LARK wakes you silently and gently- you’ll even snooze less. Perfect for couples with conflicting schedules, the hard of hearing, and the groggy morning folk, LARK’s silent alarm will transform the morning for both of you.
I have been lucky enough to try out the LARK System. I was skeptical at first that It would be able to tell what kind of sleep that I had. It only consists of a band that straps around your wrist. I was pleasantly amazed that it did keep track of all the times that I woke up (I tend to wake up and look at the clock – so i have an idea of the accuracy of the Lark). If I wake up, just slightly – It has a small line.. If I wake up -wide awake (like when Tach wants to go to the bathroom 2 hours after I fall asleep) It has a bolder line – and also shows how long it took to fall back asleep. The alarm is easy to set – you just use your iPad, iPhone or iTouch. When the alarm goes off, The wrist band vibrates. Trust me, I wake up easier to that then I do my regular alarm clock. How well do I sleep? Well, you don’t want to know. It shows that I’m averaging only like 6 hours MAX! 🙁 Yeah I know, I so need more than that a night. But that’s part of being a working mom.
How can you get a lark for your guy? You can purchase them online.

The Lark vibration is slightly different each day so people don’t get used to it and start ignoring it. If you sleep through the vibration, take off the wristband in your sleep or the rechargeable battery dies, the iPhone plays a tune composed especially for Lark.
This giveaway is really important and I am sure a lot of people would be interested to join and participate here.. Thanks!
I like that the vibration changes every day
My sleep schedule is horrible. I get up at least 2 times to use the bathroom. I think that if something wouldnt wake me, I wouldnt have to get up. Would love to see why or what or how many times I wake. My husbank gets up at 5am and I get up at 6:15. I have control of the alarm clock so I get woken up at 5 also. Would love to try the vibration on him!
This thing looks awesome! I love the idea of tracking my sleep and seeing how well I’m sleeping. Sometimes I wonder why I’m so tired !
This would be a big help because my hubby and I wake up at different times.

I have a terrible sleep schedule so it would be handy to track my sleep habits, and my husband has to get up an hour earlier for work than I do so it would also be good to wake him while letting me sleep that extra hour.
This would help me to see how often I wake up during the night, and learn how to stop!
i am a sound sleeper but the alarm will wake me up when my husband needs to get up which is too early for me so if he had this i would love it because once i wake up im not able to get back to sleep.
I don’t have normal sleep too! But sometimes if I can’t fight it, even just by sitting, I can sleep easily.. Sometimes I woke up late too, even how hard I set my alarm clock together with my cellphone which vibrates a lot, I can’t open my eyes. It’s hard if you have a baby. You have to wake up every single hour to check on them.
Thanks for this giveaway.. I hope it will work for me and my hubby.
It would wake me up without waking anyone else up!
uses an actigraphy microsensor to detect your unique sleeping patterns.
I love that it only wakes you! I hate that the other alarm wakes me up when I’m not ready!
I go to work earlier than my husband and he needs his rest.
I’d love this so I can wake up without waking him up!
i love that it vibrates and isn’t some loud noise because my family has a hard time waking up with alarms, so this would be great for someone here
I like that it vibrates to wake me up gently!
will not wake everyone up in the house
