These days sleep is pretty hard to come by. We try to all get in bed by 10pm and half of the time I fall asleep before then on the couch or while watching television in bed.

My strategy has been to spend every other night upstairs and on the couch. However, it’s turned into me doing first shift upstairs, then after my first bathroom break (midnight) I typically make my way downstairs and move to my couchbed for the rest of the night.

Couchbed is nice because I have it set up with pillows all around and it dips a little so that I can put my belly pillow down and lie on my left side. Not to mention, it’s just steps from the bathroom.

The only thing that’s bad about couchbed is that … it’s our couch. I’ve been using it like crazy and it’s become quite flat in it’s old age and with the wear of my fat ass! I am guessing over the next year it will need to be replaced just so that we can have something comfortable to sit on without feeling the flat wood bars on our backsides.
