My question is about sleep and being married to someone that has problems with sleep and having lots of young kids and how do we manage that?

Almost everybody. I would be willing to say 99.99% of the people, myself include, almost everybody in this situation.

coming to you from Nashville, Tennessee, taking calls from all over the planet about your

mental and emotional health, physical health, your relationships, your marriage, your kids,

whatever you got going on in your life, I'll sit with you and we'll figure out what's the next

right move. So go out to Boston and talked out to Boston, get login and talk to Carrie what's up Carrie

what up dr. John I should be saying like wicked awesome or something to I know you're supposed

to be like doing equations and a habit bar what's up well thank you for my call. I'm very excited to talk to you.

My question is about sleep and being married to someone that has problems with sleep and having lots of young kids and how do we manage that?

Is this my wife?

I feel like...

Sounds like she's calling about me. Boring, but like profoundly relatable. Yeah. No, nope, it's just Carrie from Boston. All right. Well, I feel like my wife's putting you up to this because she may be married to a guy with sleep issues. But all right, go ahead. Right. Tell me what's going on your house. Um, yeah, so my, and I just want to like from, like, I am, I'm obsessed with my husband.

He's awesome.

I'm not calling to, like, complain about him at all, but he is, he has, like, the worst sleep.

He always has, even before kids.

And now that we have, like, a bunch of, so we have six kids. And the oldest is seven. The youngest is eight months.

So like we just get woken. Wait, wait. What? Yeah. I know. There's a set of twins in there. But yeah.

Are these bio kids? Or do you adopt some kids? Oh, yeah. Uh-huh. Yep. Yeah, dude. It's a lot of kids.

Wow. That's what everybody says. People like, no, that's not possible. No, it's possible. You're just like, you're not semi-automatic. Y'all are automatic, man. Right. Wow. Okay. Hey, congratulations, man. What an adventure. Thank you. Yeah, no, it's wild, but it's, uh, yeah, so basically like before we had kids,

my husband even had a hard time sleeping. He's, like, uh, he's a deep thinker. He's really smart. Like, these, like, ideas, like, something will just get in his head, and then he's, like, spun up and he can't sleep. And so that's been a thing.

We've done the whole, like, you talk to doctor about, like, sleep hygiene. You get your hormones tested, like, you know, diet, exercise, all those things. And, like, that sort of worked when we didn't have kids. And now that we have kids, like, it's just not, it's not working Like, if, if you have like an off chance where everybody sleeps at night, like the dog ends up barking at her water dish and wakes
