So glad that you found the post useful. I have received a number of emails from individuals relating to this post. One colleague, Dr. April Benson, observed that medical conditions of spouses are another complication, such as restless leg syndrome. Obviously sleep apnea is one of the most common complications facing many couples. Peri Menopause and menopause being another contributor to couples bedding down comfortably each night and staying the course.

Thanks for your comment.

The communication between the couple is the key. As I wrote, hopefully life is long, and what works at one phase of the Coupledom, may not at another. The challenge of young children just being one amongst many that face the marital/couple bedtime connection. Just keep talking to teach other, and listening!

Thanks for your question.

Jill
