Biphasic/divided sleep pattern - best way to track?

I sometimes fall asleep on the couch while watching TV for a few hours (so earlier than my regular bedtime), and then wake up for an hour or even two before getting tired and going back to bed for a few more hours. My fitbit (I have the Flex 2) either misses the first sleep OR logs this as two separate sleep events.

 

In either case, I usually edit my sleep log(s) so that it is one continuous sleep period with a long awake period in the middle but I am wondering in terms of tracking it would be better to log it as two separate sleep events?

 

When they are logged as two separate events it appears as if I haven't met my sleep goa - however, I did notice one time that both events were starred, not sure what that meant.

 

What are the pros and cons of each method?

I once had similar thing, fell asleep on couch, then had normal sleep at night too. They showed as 2 separate events because they were, but both counted towards my sleep total for that day, so that's prob why both of yours were starred.

I have a charge 2 .
