Was there a sleepless night you couldn't forget?​

Wednesday is here! I hope you’ve had a marvellous sleep, members—unlike me who’s had to toss and turn all night as I slept over at a friend’s house. I’m guessing that my back and the airbed didn’t get along quite well. Have you ever had an unforgettable sleepless night? I hope it led to memories you can laugh about now. Feel free to share it here.

Well, sorry to hear that.
Two years ago I had the same experience on an airbed and stretcher... Never going back there again.
If I visit again I will get a Motel room

Daniel, I love your opening chat above all others. You talk like we are friends and it is not general banter. Thank you

Folks to the secret to sleeping better on an airbed is to have a blanket under your bottom sheet, I used to go and help with littlies while daughter worked so I slept over some nights and worked this out ..........the air in the bed is cold air and each time you move you end up a bit chilled again, also I always took my own pillow and if anyone including kids are sleeping over at Nanna's house I always say to bring own pillow, we sleep better on our own pillows.

I once went away with a group of friends, my husband was unable to come with me this time, however when we got to the motel there was a room that had a water bed in it …. we drew straws to see who would have it and, yes, I drew the short straw … it was awful, felt like I was in a boat all night, hardly slept at all as trying to lie completely still so I didn’t make waves!!

Having a sleep study in the US. Having multiple wires attached and the techs talking just outside the door meant very little sleep. How they got any useful data I don't know. Had another sleep study here in Melbourne and the door was closed so had a much more peaceful night.
