I’ve had my Apple Watch for about four months now and until maybe a week ago the sleep tracking has always been pretty accurate. But recently the watch started recording sleep when I know for a fact I was awake and stopped recording sleep when I know for a fact I was asleep (sleep mode was still turned on on my iPhone and Apple Watch). Is there any way to fix this?

Hi april_8500,
The support article Track your sleep on Apple Watch and use Sleep on iPhone includes the following tips to improve the accuracy of this feature:
"Get more accurate results with your Apple Watch
If you paired your Apple Watch after completing Sleep setup, you can still turn on Track Sleep with Apple Watch. In the Watch app on your iPhone, tap the My Watch tab, then tap Sleep. Then tap Track Sleep with Apple Watch to turn on this setting. To get the most accurate results when wearing your watch to sleep:
Additionally, Track your sleep with Apple Watch sets the expectations for this feature as:
"Note: Apple Watch tracks your sleep based on the sleep schedule you create. Apple Watch can also track your sleep when your Sleep Focus starts. To receive sleep data from Apple Watch, it must track your sleep for at least four hours each night."
Based on that, you may need to adjust your sleep schedule or use the Sleep Focus to ensure the most accurate results for tracking.
Regards.
To stop sleep tracking on your Apple Watch Series 5, you can open the "Watch" app on your paired iPhone, go to the "My Watch" tab, select "Sleep," and then toggle off the "Track Sleep with Apple Watch" option. This will prevent your Apple Watch from automatically tracking your sleep and bothering you at night.this just my advise and what I know but I’d just say turn it off don’t let that keep happing yk better safe than sorry
