Why is it not recommended to sleep in the same bed with the elderly in the family?

Mondo Parenting Updated on 2024-01-30

First of all, the physical function of the elderly gradually declines, and the flexibility of bones and muscles decreases, and more stable support is needed to maintain comfort. The soft mattress is not enough to support the body of the elderly, which can easily lead to physical discomfort and fatigue. In contrast, young people can choose mattresses with moderate firmness and softness according to their own situation, because their bodies are healthier and better able to adapt to different mattress types.

Secondly, the quality of sleep of the elderly is often not as good as that of young people, and they are more likely to have insomnia, wake up at night and other problems. The sleep rhythm and habits of young people may affect the sleep quality of older people. For example, young people tend to go to bed late and wake up late, while older people have a more regular schedule. If young and old people sleep in the same bed, it can cause mutual interference and affect the quality of sleep for both parties.

In addition, older people are less sensitive and less adaptable to temperature and humidity than younger people. If the elderly and young people sleep in the same bed, it may cause the temperature and humidity to not adapt to each other, which can affect the physical health of the elderly. In addition, older people turn over more often at night than younger people, which is suitable for relatively silent mattresses.

To sum up, to stay comfortable and healthy, it is recommended that young and old people sleep on different mattresses separately. Young people can choose a mattress with moderate firmness and softness according to their own situation, while the elderly are more suitable to choose a hard mattress to keep their body stable and comfortable.
