wake-ups
Ends of slumber
Wake-ups are instances of waking or being woken.
The term often appears in contexts involving repeated or scheduled awakenings: three wake-ups until vacation, the baby's middle-of-the-night wake-ups are exhausting.
In military and institutional settings, counting wake-ups measures time remaining: Only two more wake-ups until discharge.
