btw - it's not that I'm making excuses, it's just that I'm trying to
not do a bunch of different things that require substantial effort and
lifestyle change in the hope that _one_ works. Many things we have
tried, and now I'll just take it one by one and see how it goes.

It sounds like great change and effort is exactly what you need to do.

I mean like going to the effort of moving the large awkward difficult
to move bed into another room temporarily in the hopes that it will
make a difference.

Any possibility of making the other bed more comfortable?
A better mattress or mattress topper or some such thing?

Sure. We could lay out the cash for a new bed instead of on
construction materials for DD's room. But as I said, I really don't
want to go to such major extremes when it's a temporary fix which very
well may not work. I am not complaining that the bed is the source of
all our problems. Rather, I am explaining why 'simply moving DH to
another room' isn't as simple as it might seem to some...not to
mention the fact that his bed is from Europe, and he's very fussy
about it. The mattress I have that he doesn't like is perfectly fine
and I like it well enough and honestly it'd be ridiculous to replace
it.

Kind of like having brain surgery for a headache. I'm trying to figure
out the simpler, pain med route first.


btw - I don't mean to sound so flippant. I really appreciate all the
helpful advice from this thread and I'm processing it to figure out
what might and what might not be feasible in our situation. I find,
though, that more and more extreme suggestions are offered, getting
away from the original problem, and then I'm accused of making excuses
when I say those just aren't reasonable in the current situation. As a
last resort, maybe, but I don't think we're there yet.
