Mum Jess shared an insight into her relationship with husband Dylan via a video posted to her TikTok channel. Jess explained that she and her husband no longer sleep in the same bed, as they nearly got a divorce over sleep.
The 28 year old shares a two and a half year old son with Dylan, and explained that for the entire time he has been alive, the couple “have not slept”, due to their son being unable to sleep through the night.
“Being sleep deprived has absolutely wreaked havoc in our jobs, our daily lives and our relationship together as well”, she said.
Jess, who is a part time wheelchair user, said that she believes the lack of sleep has also probably played a factor in her poor health.
Back in November, the couple decided to put their spare double bed into their toddler’s room and now Jess shares a room with her son and Dylan stays in the couples’ bedroom.
“Since then, my toddler has slept through the whole night”, she said.
She added that this sleeping arrangement has made her and Dylan feel “so rested” and said that it has done “absolute wonders” for their relationship.
“We don’t fight any more”, she said.
Jess said that if anyone else is in the same boat as the couple, she would definitely recommend that they try sleeping in different beds.
Despite not sharing a bed, Jess said that she and Dylan still make time to be intimate together, and revealed that she misses him when she is sleeping in her son’s room.
She said that she hopes the couple can go back to sharing a bed in the not too distantfuture .
Jess’ video, which was posted under the username @ourlifewithdylanandme, has gone viral, racking up over 176,000 views on the video-sharing platform, in just a few days.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts on the couple’s sleeping arrangements, and opinions were divided.
One person said: “I couldn’t imagine this, as soon as our boys in bed we’re in bed cuddling”
A second person added: “Myself and my ex used to have separate rooms and it was a reflection of our very unhappy relationship, now I embrace cuddling to sleep every night.”
A third said: “I haven’t slept with my partner since I was pregnant and his snoring was driving me insane.
“We both sleep better!”
A fourth added: “Sleep is important.
“As Human beings we put so much emphasis on sleeping in one bed as some kind of romantic thing.
“Forget that, get good quality sleep separately, it will help your health too big time..<<CONTINUE READING>>
