I need to get up without waking the wife and kids, I got a smartwatch to vibrate and it woke her. The alarm is always going to wake the house.

Is there anything else?

    I can’t imagine that you can get out of bed without waking your wife if your smartwatch vibrating wakes her up.

    If your wife is such a light sleeper that a vibrating watch is waking her perhaps sleeping in a separate room when you need to wake up at a certain time would work?

      Separate rooms is definitely not an option. It’s not so much super light sleeper just she is nursing and I’d like to get a workout in before everyone else wakes. If I wake the kids we’re all screwed if I wake her I ruin what peace she gets.

            Because it sounds like she’s sacrificing a lot to nurse a new baby, so maybe you could sacrifice a little bit for her so she can get at least a bit of sleep.

              Maybe mind your own business and stop making presumptions about my family life you self righteous prick.

              I want to wake an hour before everyone to do some exercising so I’m not eating into the family time. The time would otherwise be spent sleeping like everyone else.

              I honestly can’t believe the audacity of your reply.

                  It’s based on absolutely no information that I provided, just your apparent want for feeling superior.

    Vibrating butt plug with timer

    Realistically, your wife is your partner and some sacrifices need to be made. If she can’t sleep through a watch, she should consider earplugs or just deal. I’m sure you silence it and leave the room ASAP so, that’s just life of sharing a room with a spouse.

    Edit like literally millions of spouses have tolerated their other rising before them, it’s a normal part of the deal
