Sleep patterns you have don't seem out of the ordinary.Mine are like that.Sleep comes in cycles. You wake up and it does take time to get back to sleep.I know a women that sleeps 10 hours a night.That isn't the normal time but that seems what she needs.Some need less time other more. I know another with Fibromyalgia,it's a disorder that causes much discomfort,this causes her to be very tired so she takes naps throughout the day.In your case I don't think there is a problem. Mainly keep the same patterns you'll be fine.
