    I would sit down with him and have a very deliberate conversation about the specifics of the behaviour that's bothering you, its effect on you (I know fractured sleep is no joke!), and what it is you want to change (more help around the house, etc.)

    You've gotta be VERY upfront about this - when the housework is unbalanced like that, your partner's totally gotten used to it/is apathetic. So it's imperative that you're honest about all the effects it has on you, and that it must change!

    Some other things I recommend are: getting a bigger bed (I know every move/bit of fidgeting from my partner affects me in a smaller one!), nudging/moving him if he's crowding you (I totally used to do this to my partner & gently pushing me away worked), making sure your room has blackout conditions, and getting at least 15 minutes of light in the morning/being aware of your Vitamin D levels (it's actually a hormone, and crucial to your circadian rhythm.)

    Oh! And trying out a slow cooker I'm all about healthy, homemade meals as well and that gets intimidating even when you technicallyy have the time/energy for it! With a slow cooker, you can have dinner ready whenever it is you need it!

    Good luck & I hope you get all the equal work around the house & wonderful, delicious sleep you need!

    We have a king size bed, but he finds a way over to my side and I do agree about being upfront about it before it gets out of hand. I just pulled out my slow cooker after reading this and had an (omg I forgot moment) so I think we will be having a lot of healthy stew for a while, thx for the advice lol! Also need to remember about getting out and not staying in, its hard with camming though because I tend to forget. Thx again!
