Fitbit only records last section of sleep

Hello community.  I go to bed around 10 pm and get up around 7.  I know I am a terrible sleeper but many nights my fitbit either doesn't record any sleep at all or less than 1 hour.    It often only shows sleep from about 4 am.  If I get up to use the bathroom does it wipe out all my data?  This has been happening forever.  I upgraded to premium thinking the data would help my doctor but I think the data is completely inaccurate.  This also seems to prevent calculating a readiness score.   Here is an example.

Hi, @Carogilf! I know this doesn't fix the underlying issue of Fitbit not auto recognizing your sleep, but I would suggest going in and editing the sleep record to match your schedule, especially since it sounds like you're pretty consistent. Getting up briefly shouldn't impact your record, but if you're tossing and turning all night, it may be that Fitbit just isn't recognizing it.

I have exactly the same issue.  It renders the sleep function useless.  I'm using an older model (Charge 2), could that be part of the problem?  I there a setting to change somewhere.  I consistently sleep 11 to 7, but it seems to only record from around 4am (when I get up to pee).

I thought the issue might have been my old inspire but now I have a new Luxe and it is still the same problem.

Same here!  I have also used the beginning sleep now which is more accurate as it at least captures sleep of less than one hour.  I still lose whole portions of my night though.
