Men forty and older: How many times do you urinate between going to bed and finally getting out of bed in the morning? (I'm assuming you are not a shift worker or the like or nocturnal.)

Depends.
A minimum of once; a max of four (or maybe five?). Most typically: twice or thrice.
This may be affected by a couple of things:
1) I generally drink at least a liter of seltzer per day, and total fluid intake for the day likely averages 2L or a bit more. I try to have most of that in the morning, but it tends to affect me some till the next morning.
2) I sleep very badly (and have, ever since my kids were born 20+ years ago), so it doesn't take much bladder pressure to wake me.
3) Part of sleeping badly is that I'll often wake at 4 or 5am (after going to bed around 10:15). I'll need to pee then; the question is whether I try to go back to bed afterward for another hour or so of drifting in and out of fitful sleep; or just say "screw it," get up, feed the cats, and go to the gym.
Aged 62.
Should add that I met an older man (~75?) at my cardiologist's a while back, and he said that he woke up every hour, every night, to use the toilet.
Rarely ever. What would the reason be?
Excellent question. 1-2 times per night. Would like to sleep straight through. Am in my mid-forties.

I see what you are doing there.
I sleep through the night almost every night. No worries here. 47 y/o.

What brand?
49 years old. I sleep most nights until the alarm goes off. Maybe once or twice a week I wake up to take a whiz but it's so late in the morning I rarely go back to bed.
On average, close to zero.

Well done!
A golf clap for you.
I'm 57 years old and I get up once, if at all, to use the facilities.
Don't know.
I'm sort of waiting for the obligatory get a prostate checkup response on this thread...
Once a night, every single night, but I'm not sure if I get up because I have to piss or I piss because I'm up.
I'm 54. I don't get up to pee unless I have had quite a few beerski's that evening. But, otherwise, the answer is zero.
Just once. On my wife. Unless she wants more.
I am 40 and almost never have to get up in the middle of the night to pee. At what age does it become normal to pee frequently during the night?
I'm 41, very active and have a fairly healthy diet. I'm usually up once a night. But I do hydrate quite a bit throughout the day. I'm also asleep by 9 most nights and wake up between 2-3am.
Once most of the time, occasionally not at all. I'm 47.
45 male. Most nights not at all. Some of the times once. If I do get up to go, it is typically because I had some water (or beer or wine) before bed and failed to take care of business before hitting the sack.
