I need to get up without waking the wife and kids, I got a smartwatch to vibrate and it woke her. The alarm is always going to wake the house.
Is there anything else?
Separate rooms is definitely not an option. It’s not so much super light sleeper just she is nursing and I’d like to get a workout in before everyone else wakes. If I wake the kids we’re all screwed if I wake her I ruin what peace she gets.
Because it sounds like she’s sacrificing a lot to nurse a new baby, so maybe you could sacrifice a little bit for her so she can get at least a bit of sleep.
A split king bed did wonders for my wife and I. I never feel her move. Now, if it’s noise that wakes her up, a sound machine could help.
Literally or figuratively?
Could you or her be occupying another room for a few weeks/months or is it worth a fight
What I’m trying to do is not worth sleeping alone, I just want to get a workout in before the day starts and waking anyone will just start the day earlier. But sleeping separately is worse than being out of shape.
Having raised many kids, you have to take your extra time where you can actually find it. If your family is early to rise, work out before bed instead, after they go to sleep. I have done early morning workouts, late night workouts, lunch time workouts. It may be that you can’t have morning time alone right now.
I don’t suppose there’s room for a bed in the babies’ room, so after the mid-night nursings she could sleep in there until they’re hungry again? Only if she wants to, of course. It can be more restful than trying to sleep with your ears on High for sounds of distress from the other room, which also makes you oversensitive to hubby’s alarm.
Lol I know the 5g stuff is a stupid myth but sleeping with a Bluetooth device strapped to your cranium feels like it’s putting the research conclusions to the test
