We took our baby to the dentist today and they had to put her under anasthesia for treatment. It was somewhat traumatic and my WW decided to stay here tonight because it got so late. This is the first time she's stayed over since D-day. She is asleep in our bed right now. Should I go in there and sleep next to her and put my arm around her or should I sleep on the couch? I'm not sure how to handle this one. I know she wouldn't ask me to sleep somewhere else if I went in there, I just didn't know if this is too far in plan A.

i am not really familiar with your situation but it is your bed...do what you are comfortable with...I do not think it would be an LB or too far with plan A. She went to sleep there knowing you still sleep there right?

You're right ayslyne. My W has been living with OM for about two months now. Over the last couple of weeks she has been much more affectionate towards me and has said she wants to work things out between us. I figure I could go in there and ask her if it would make her feel uncomfortable if I slept next to her and take it from there.

Climb in bed...go to sleep! Don't push it. If she says anything, offer to sleep on the couch.

I vote for you to sleep where you always do! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
She can move if she is not comfortable.
How is the baby?
take care,

Hi everyone. The baby did very well and is bouncing around like nothing happened today. Watching her as she was falling asleep from the anasthesia was very hard. She looked scared and her eyes were twitching badly. They said it was completely normal but it was still hard to watch her. My wife was sleeping like a log when I went in the bedroom so I just laid down and went to sleep. I figured if she had a problem with it she could go out on the couch herself. She was very happy when she woke up. Said that was the best night sleep she's had in weeks. It all went okay.
