[quote=Anonymous]Is there any chance he has sleep apnea?

My husband does and this describes how he used to be - he could (and would) easily sleep until 2 on the weekends. Like everyone is saying, this really wasn't a big issue before we had kids - I'd just do my own thing or sometimes if we had (prearranged) plans I'd wake him up. But once we had kids it obviously needed to change - and it did, gradually. Initially he'd tend to sleep in one weekend day and then wake up at a more reasonable time (meaning like...9/10) the other one - he's never going to be the type to spring out of bed at 7:30 voluntarily, and I knew that going in. To his credit he definitely made a concerted effort, without me nagging (...much) or anything, once we had kids. But what really made the difference was finally getting checked for sleep apnea, and using a coal. He got one about a year ago and it's been a game changer. Don't get me wrong, he still loves his sleep. But nowadays he either sets an alarm for 9/9:30 or so, or I come in with our toddler around then and say good morning, and he's very receptive. I'll be honest - occasionally I still "let" him sleep in until 11 or so and he easily does. But he also understands that doing that every weekend just doesn't work when you have kids [/quote]
