Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help with this. I've noticed that when my OH gets into bed he can't seem to position himself properly, so he ends up with his head jammed up against the headboard. He can't seem to work out that he needs to move himself further down the bed so that his head is resting on his pillow. When he first gets into bed I have to get him out again and re-position him so that he lies down properly. But if he gets up in the night to go to the loo, he gets into bed in the wrong position again and it's very hard then in the middle of the night to get him to co-operate so I can move him. If I just leave him, he keeps getting up and down, presumably because he can't get comfortable. I can't remove the headboard or replace the bed so the option seems to be to consider moving him to another room where the bed doesn't have a headboard (but I wonder if he will just do the same with the wall instead). This also might lead to more confusion in the night over where the loo is etc. I really need to be able to have a good night of rest if possible, as I work full time and need to be fit for work, so any suggestions which minimise the disruption to me as well would be gratefully accepted!
