to ask DH to sleep on the sofa

[RobynLou]

I've just got in from work, I'm 33 weeks pg, have spent most of today trudging around with DD in the snow, and I really really ache, my hips and pelvis are properly painful.

DH is upstairs asleep, coughing every 30seconds, I just can't bear to go up there, I'll never get to sleep and DD will be up in 6 hours (if I'm lucky)

I really need to sleep, I'd sleep on the sofa, but we've only got a little 2 seater and I just don't think I'll fit! will probably be barely able to move in the morning if I sleep down here.

AIBU to wake up DH and ask him to sleep on the sof so I can get some sleep in comfort?

The cough's nothing major btw, just the tail end of manflu a cold...

Can you not put DD into bed with her dad and sleep in her bed instead?

but what if I wake her up? (blind terror at the thought of having to deal with crying DD now)

You're right though, that's the best plan.

Aww, it's not his fault

Two seater sofas are not nice for anyone to sleep on.

I do know what you mean, but you're so tired you'll probably be asleep in no time. Does that help at all?

It doesn't does it?

right I'm going to try and move DD, if she stays asleep long enough for me to get into her bed then DH wakes her with the coughing he'll hear it first so I'll pretend to sleep soundly and he can deal with it. feeling a bit mean, but I'm desperate to get some decent sleep somewhere comfortable, and he's had hours of sleep already!
