Why do my fiancee and I wake up every night between 2 and 3 AM?

We moved to a new house 2 weeks ago. Before this, both of us would have variable good/fair nights of sleep, depending on how hard we worked and how much sleep we got. But I would safely say that neither of us had a "sleep disorder" and both of us would usually be able to get back to sleep immediately when we woke up in the night.

Since we have moved to our new house, we fall asleep easily and quickly, but we both find ourselves wide awake between 2-3 AM, and can't get back to sleep for anywhere from 1-2 hours. This even happens on days where we've been exhausted.

We've tried moving the bed to different positions in the room, and still...nothing.

Does anybody have any idea why this could be happening?

Update:

I appreciate these answers, but I'm certain that the waking is not due to stress, emotional, or physical reasons. I'm convinced it is something with the physical environment, and I'm looking for somebody who may have had a similar experience and struck upon the reason.

    If it's insanely different from your old house that could effect your sleeping mentality (Ex: Bright white walled room to a dark wooded room) Or you're still adjusting to your new home. You got a new bed, maybe?

    I wonder if this new change is affecting your finances, and you both are worried about the rent, if not... maybe you haven't adjust to your new home, try changing the drapes or the lighting in your room, maybe the air is too heavy and needs to be cleaned, (the A/C filter is probably in need of cleaning?) if that doesn't help try making love and I'm sure that after such intensity you both will be able to sleep. Good luck

    Its a poltergeist haunting you....

    Or maybe like in the Exorcism of Emily Rose where its like late at night around 3 when she stays up and stuff...

    Do you live in Hawaii?

    It could be the NightMarchers... for real this time. Ive heard of a boy who kept getting up because the NightMarchers march through his room everynight, a local Hawaiian legend.

    I in basic terms advised somebody a 2d in the past. we adore lots of folk in our lifestyles, yet they do no longer look to be anybody we ought to consistently marry. once you get to the age you're actually, you have a tendency to think of the clock is ticking. possibly you opt for a kinfolk --you opt for to cool down and not date anymore and so on and so on relationship somebody is one situation. Marrying them, extremely yet another. the guy you marry ought to enhance who you're already. Be an asset. permit you improve and become extra as a individual. there are situations, including in a serious ailment, they're your finished help. you'll have faith they are going to stand by utilising you. you should believe them above maximum human beings...and vice versa.
