Congrats! It's pretty common to get "Beginner's Luck," where you have a few when you first learn about it and then go a while without them while your mind re-trains itself to do this, although you sound like you've upgraded that a bit. Maybe you are just lucky. Or you have a knack for it, a good mind-body connection, who knows - keep trying and you'll find out.
It is really strange that your LDs all start at 8:57, how do you know this? Do you wake up every time and see the clock, or are you seeing it in your dream? Because my theory when I first read this was that you're having some sort of reoccurring sign having to do with the time 8:57 when you first wake up in your dream state and see the clock, or maybe since you always fall asleep at 12 your body just naturally starts its REM cycle around then.
About REM, as long as you're sleeping the cycle will continue itself and get longer - it doesn't stop if you sleep too long, it only stops when it gets cut short. The later in your sleep the REM period is, the longer it is and the greater the chance you'll wake up during it, or remember it.
Anyway, keep us updated
