For many people there isn't anything more romantic than drifting off to sleep cradled in the arms of their lover . Although many bask in this closeness, many people find sharing a bed taxing and are opting to shy away from co-sleeping. Hand in hand with modern day living has come longer working hours and busier lifestyles meaning that the need for good quality sleep is more important now than ever before. Bad bedtimes can potentially greatly enhance stress levels and raise blood pressure making us more susceptible to strokes, heart disease and depressive disorders. Combined with health hazards, interrupted sleep can have catastrophic effects on our relationships. Time and again we find ourselves gradually more snappy where had we been entirely rested the previous night, we wouldn't be at each other's throats. Solutions to the physical discomfort of sharing a bed with a twitchy partner have come in the form of duo beds which comprise a pair of single mattresses that join together . One step further is the invention of Miracoil, a mattress innovation that grants individual sleep zones for both partners. Despite promising to combat the annoyance of roll-together, for some people the issue of involuntary movement because of a wriggling partner is only able to be relieved with separate sleeping. A study of 4,000 British couples discovered that 1 in 4 already sleep in separate beds and anothersurvey disclosed that 22% of Brits would prefer separate bedrooms if they had additional space. What people don't seem to realise though is the phenomenon of sleeping in the same bed is a relatively modern occurrence. Even considering the suggestion of sleeping separately to our partners has definitely become controversial but surely if our physical health and mental wellbeing are on the line than this is a discussion worth having with our other halves. Somehow a separate bed in this societyindicates the end of a relationship but ironically it could be the cure for lots of affected couples. Those daring enough to take the plunge and reject co-sleeping have noticed a greater sense of pleasure and happiness in their relationships; bedtime bickering and the feeling of resentment for waking each other up has instead been substituted for an effort to spend more time together with both partners more relaxed and less fractious. Couples who switch to separate beds or separate bedrooms very often see an increase in their sex drives. Often couples whinge about being too tired for sex but sleeping separately allows those that are managing to achieve undisturbed sleep to feel more relaxed and in a better mind frame for sex. Plenty of of us who are in favour of shunning co-sleeping could be accused of being unromantic and selfish but surely sacrificing our sanity is not worth nights of uncomfortable cuddling in a cramped bed just for the benefit of keeping up appearances. I AM romantic and I love the thought of cuddling up to someone in my slumber however if after a long hard day, co-sleeping is only going to end up in a night of disrupted kip then I will brave the raised eyebrows and cherish my solo sleeping antics.
