Um...I think if you're lucid enough to do a reality check, you really don't need to do them. I'll probably get screamed at for saying that here...but I can only speak for myself when I tell you that ....there's usually one moment when you say...HEY....I'm dreaming...and It's not after a reality check. I think the reality checks are just an affirmation for your own peace of mind. Congrats on your first one. I'm still trying to master being able to do this at my own will. Sometimes I wake up and know I was just dreaming, but NEVER had that moment of ....HEY!!
One other thing that I've found, is that since I'm an old married guy (who happens to be incredibly good looking and all that...just kidding) I have to worry about what I say in my sleep. There have been a few times when I'm pretty sure that I'm dreaming, but am afraid to say anything out loud...because it might wake up my wife. That would be kind of inconsiderate.
