There were five in the bed and the biggest one said: “This is only a fucking Queen sized bed and I can’t take it anymore.”
There were five in the bed and the second-biggest said: “This is ridiculous. I should be able to sleep in my own bed without getting kicked in the head. FFS.”
There were five in the bed and the third biggest said: “I’m a cat. I’m going to crawl under the covers and roll around everywhere, scratch your legs and lick you on the face.”
There were five in the bed and the fourth biggest said: “I’ve got snot.”
There were five in the bed and the littlest said: “Waaaaaaaaahhhhh.”
Last night there were five in our bed. I slept on the edge while Miss 4 claimed my pillow. She also sneezed repeatedly into the back of my head. All the while, Twiggy slept upside down so his feet were far too close to my face. The 5yo took slept on Twiggy’s pillow and the toddler crammed herself somewhere in between all of us. I am unsure exactly where she was, I could just hear her screaming and lashing out at people.
Five people in a double is not a suitable sleeping arrangement. We need a king.
I look at this and feel jealous.
Will we ever get to sleep in our bed by ourselves again?

Hi, I'm Bianca Wordley, I write about life.
Yes Bianca! You will! It may not be for many years – but I am sure you will get there 🙂
Maybe you should try going into one of their beds for the night?
If I had a dollar for every time my three year old has booted me out of my bed I would have enough to dine at Tetsuya’s. I’m so over it – and while we’re at it, I’m over wiping bottoms.
Oh I know the feeling with a toddler, an unborn baby, a husband who believes I can hang off the bed to sleep and a bladder the size of a pea. Big hugs in sympathy.

Oh Bianca. I’m hearing you! We had four in the bed last night, managed to kick one child out – to a made up bed beside ours, but the remaining ‘snow angel’ slept with hubby and I for the night. Aargh!
It will pass…. Eventually x
It’s a shocker isn’t it?Even just one kid in the bed is a big fat pain. All things must pass, right?
Oh yes this has been us for many many years. I can particularly relate to the one lashing out at the others… She was our worst sleeper.. Thank goodness gracious prep wore her out this year and it has settled. I look at our queen bed and think how on earth have we all ever fitted in here at times with a cat or two or a dog as well as kids…looks like I may have just cured my cluckyness!!! Sim.
