Strangest sleeping arrangement?

So last night, I slept on our couch cushions on the floor of our bathroom with DD for half the night. DH took the other half.  The bathroom fan was the only thing keeping DD asleep.  We've also done the glider (yes, laying down) and the floor of the nursery. 

What is your strangest arrangement?

Re: Strangest sleeping arrangement?

  • We bought a recliner because DD was having screaming fits for hours everynight, then she would stop and fall asleep on my chest. We spend pretty much every night in the recliner like this because its the only way she will sleep for more then an hour so I can keep my sanity.

  • Not very strange but I sleep on the couch every night - which is actually very comfortable - and baby sleeps in his little chair. He has to sleep upright or he pukes everywhere when he's asleep.

  • DD & I typically sleep in our recliner at night.  She sleeps much better with this arrangement and therefore I get much more sleep as well.

  • This isn't very strange, but for the first few nights when DH went back to work, I wanted to make sure he got some sleep because he had been up with me the past week or so at night.  He drives a long distance to get there and back so I didn't want to worry about him falling asleep while driving, so I slept in our living room on the couch with DS in the swing and DH slept in our bedroom.

  • I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one sleeping in strange places!!  I've been in glider, and on the couch.  My mom was here for 10 days and she took turns with me. Now that she's gone, DH wakes up early and gives me a few hours of sleep in bed before he heads off to work.  I hope it gets better for all of us soon!

  • DH and I slept on our living room floor on an air mattress because DD needed to sleep in his swing due to reflux. We have since decided to just move it up and down every night...not sure how long DH will want to keep moving it though so I think we need to figure something else out.

  • I'm so glad DH isn't the only one too.  We had to buy the Nap Nanny & it's been a total lifesaver.  A stupid $130 piece of foam but worth every single penny.  We even put in right in his crib!
