This is what I see at night when I’m headed to bed or in the
morning when I’m getting ready for work.
He looks comfortable right?
Last night was Ben’s first night home which means our first
night all sleeping together, and in my book I consider it a disaster. Ratchet sleeps in between Ben and I, Mabel
sleeps on the other side of me and they both sleep with their legs facing me.
so if I try to scoot one of them they lock their legs and their nails dig into
me!!
How am I going to deal with this when I’m big and
pregnant? I’m worried about just having
Ben in the bed!! So I’ve decided (and
friends that know me, I’m serious this time) that I’m kicking the dogs out of
the bed. In the past we’ve tried to let
them sleep next to the bed but they ultimately sneak under the covers and I
wake up a 2am uncomfortable and then wide awake after moving the dogs and
snuggling them back into their bed.
I remember years ago a friend told me she had to deal with this same issue while she was awaiting the arrival of her son and she had to completely kick the dogs out of the room and make them sleep in the hallway. And after trying to kick my dogs out of the bed many times I think she had the right idea.
Kick them out of the room entirely.
I’m going to need Ben to be on board with this, and my
sister cannot let them sleep in her room. That’s the guest room and after she
moves out I certainly won’t want the dogs thinking that’s their room.
Wish us luck!!
Oh my god that sucked kicking them out of our room. 5 years later and only one of them will even enter our room to sleep now and he only sleeps on the floor. So its effective good luck and expect lots of crying. Its goo practie for when the baby comes I guess haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm cracking up at that picture! Good luck with the training. We were thinking that we would have to do that but luckily, once I got really big, Murph wanted nothing to do with me taking up the whole bed so he sleeps under it now.
