INSIGHT

Couples Often Sacrifice Sleep

  • Many couples struggle: 50% sleep as a couple but 54% feel sleep-deprived.
  • Choosing the right bed size can materially affect shared sleep quality.
ADVICE

Choose A Bigger Or Split Bed

  • Do pick a bigger mattress to increase comfort; sizes now vary more than before.
  • Try twin beds pushed together if one partner moves a lot to preserve individual space.
ADVICE

Use Separate Blankets

  • Use two separate blankets instead of sharing one to avoid tug-of-war and chilly gaps.
  • Let each person choose their blanket to match individual temperature preferences.
