Use to fall asleep and not wake up till alarm. now i wake up 2-3 times and its always around the same time each night. what could this be?

Probably normal: Some people have to wake for a variety of reasons. Having to urinate can be a sign of diabetes or overactive bladder, but sometimes, your circadian rhythms simply make you wake. If it persists or is causing other problems, see your physician.
