Most people experience sleep problems at some point in their life. Did you know that it's thought that a third of people in the UK have episodes of insomnia, but what is insomnia? Insomnia is difficulty in getting off to sleep or the inability to sleep for long enough periods without feeling refreshed.
Symptoms of insomnia can include:-
difficulty falling asleep
waking up during the night
waking up early in the morning
feeling irritable and tired and finding it difficult to function during the day
Insomnia is more common in women and is more likely to occur with age.
There are many reasons for insomnia including stress and depression or something as simple as having too much caffeine late at night. Having a wind-down routine, a dark environment and supportive mattress all can help. When a bed is no longer providing support and comfort it can be to the detriment of your sleep.
How long have you had your mattress? I know mine is at least 10 years old and is in desperate need of a change. I keep waking up at night as I feel I can no longer get comfortable. So I have been looking online for a new mattress.
Have you ever thought of a pocket sprung mattress with memory foam? Pocket sprung mattresses are known for offering a responsive and supportive surface. Memory foam mattresses stand out for ensuring pain relief against so many agonising conditions. Now you can get the best of both world's with a pocket sprung mattress with memory foam.

I have issues sleeping, but it is health related. I know my mum has one of these mattresses and finds it helpful. I think the toppers are a great idea and have been considering, but need to wait until we have more money!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, thank you!
The toppers are a great idea and so cost effective too
DeleteMy main problem with sleep is that i would love more of it!! No problem falling asleep, just too much to do and i sleep late! But a good mattress does make all the difference
ReplyDeleteI agree Anna a good mattress does make all the difference
DeleteWe definitely need a new mattress!
ReplyDeleteThe memory foam mattresses do look very good.
DeleteI have the lumpiest, oldest mattress ever, springs being dig into me! I'm having an awful night sleep not really resting. But ordered a new mattress last week. If only I knew about this sooner, the mattresses look great :D
ReplyDeleteA new mattress can improve your sleep so much, I hope you will have a good night's sleep now Lucy
DeleteHi Mellissa! I've nominated you for a Blog Your Heart Out Award! http://theparentgame.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/blog-your-heart-out-award.html
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lucy, that is so lovely of you!
DeleteGreat post :) I go through phases of being able to sleep all the way through the night, but some weeks i'm terrible and can be woken up at 3am and not fall asleep. I think worrying about having to get up for work at 7 keeps me away, or stress.

Stress can play a part in insomnia, I have a milky drink at night and try and wind down as part of my night routine
DeleteIt always amazes me that people will spend a lot on a bed frame and then buy the cheapest mattress they can afford. It's really worth spending a bit extra, especially if you have back problems.
