A giant bed My lifelong dream had been to have a giant bed to be able to sleep soundly, and it turns out that when we were the biggest place to sleep, which is when we had a 150 bed next to a 75 cm bed, we were tighter. There were four of us for that space and although there was room for everyone, the powerful magnet of the children towards us made us stay almost motionless many times.
Maybe if we had some more space we could have played a little more with him, as did the couple formed by Ryan Constable, a former rugby player, and his wife Kim, yoga instructor, at set up a 5.5 meter bed in the room for them and their four children.
Everything was increasing naturally
His children are Corey, 11, Kai, who is 9, Maya, 6, and Jack, who is 5. Already with his first son, Corey, they ended up choosing to share a bed with him because so they all slept better.
Upon arrival the following children chose to continue with the same strategy, since apparently they were also better sharing space at night with their parents. Then, with each birth, something curious happened: when the elders slept alone in their rooms and the next baby arrived, who shared a bed with the parents, they complained because they felt it was not fair that they had to remain alone in their beds.
And that's how they finally decided to get ** a huge bed ** in which everyone had a place.
That's how they are for them both day and night
Three years ago we published in Babies and more an entry in which we asked how it was possible for all parents to understand that babies need us for the day and we weren't able to understand that the same thing happens at night. And just as during the day they ask us for contact, affection, attention and time with us, at night they ask us exactly the same, but with more reason: they will sleep, they will close their eyes, they will stop controlling the world and They need us to know that they will be safe.
Something like that is what they feel, as we read in Belfast Telegraph, explaining that they all sleep better that way, so parents they don't have to go from room to room attending to their needs and that for them it is also easier to be able, at a glance, to see that everything is going well during the night.
And how do they go to sleep?
As Kim explains in the program This morningIn this video, bedtime for everyone is between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m.. She lies on that hour with the two little ones (the days that everything goes perfect even at 9 pm), and the older two go to bed when they are tired. He does not force them, he gives them that decision, because in the morning there is no alarm waiting for them: she is educating everyone at home. And they get along well because it is clear that they are able to manage their sleep and wakefulness in a responsible way.
Moreover, recently the elder asked them a room for him with his own bed, and the parents made it possible for him to sleep there whenever he wants.
As regards sex, which is a doubt that many people have (because they do not go to school and at night they share space with parents), they explain that the two are very open in that regard with their children and that they often They go to sleep together in the guest room.
If children ever ask why they leave, they tell them that dad and mom need to "snuggle up". Although they confess that often one of the children also accompanies them to bed and they have to wait for him to sleep to take him to the big bed and be able to have their time and space together.
In addition, the couple also saves a moment of one day a week to have breakfast or dinner together, just the two of you.
