[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just turn off the alarm quickly and be reasonably quiet in the bedroom. IMO it's incumbent on the late sleeper to stay asleep. Learning to use ear plugs is a great skill for anyone cohabiting. She/he will still hear the alarm but the walking around and bathroom will be a non-factor. [/quote] +1. If DH is having trouble sleeping or wakes up before the alarm he will shut it off before it goes off, but if he’s asleep it wakes me up, he turns it off quickly, and I go back to sleep. I am a fan of the single earbud in the ear turned up toward the ceiling (no earbud in the ear smashed into the pillow - also I have squishy earbuds). I also often plop an extra pillow over my head when he gets up to further block out light/sound. The only awful thing is if he somehow accidentally snoozes the alarm or forgets to turn it off if he wakes up before it and it goes off when he’s in the shower. But that’s extremely rare. Probably hasn’t happened in over a year at least. Has happened within the last 5.5 years because it has happened in this house.[/quote] The last time my DH forgot to turn off the alarm before getting in the shower I unplugged the entire clock radio. I couldn’t figure out how to shut it off and was worried it would just snooze. Unplugging it was easier.[/quote]
