Starfish- So, you have given him the boot and he ran with it.

That seemed to work out ok, I guess. You may however be setting a "new normal " where you may have trouble sleeping together again. Just something to think about. You are so right about cooperative sweet husbands! Thank heavens there are a few out there.I wondered why you didn't try the sleep specialists advice??
DesertBloom- About this technique that starfish was advised to do--this is exactly what my husband read about recently with one minor modification and that was to advance in 15 minute increments rather than 1/2. It sounds like a good technique actually, and one I wish I had known about back when my sleep issues were really bad. Maybe you could try this. Good luck and sweet dreams tonight!
