ever since I was little I have had alot of trouble getting to sleep but for some reason being in a car has always put me right to sleep. I was wondering if they sold beds that swing for adults? I don't think they do but it would be awsome. I know between that and my wieghted blanket I would fall right to sleep.

Does anyone else think that having a swnging bed would help you sleep?

Does anyone else fall asleep in cars?

I think for small children it's not only the rocking car motion but the white noise of the engine. I used to drive my son around. Don't they have vibrating beds? Maybe you could get one used from a No Tell Motel :) .

I would love a swinging bed. I have my bed next to the wall as my room is quite small and I press my foot against the wall to rock the mattress back and forward, but I wish it would swing of it's own volition once I got it going. I'm glad I'm not alone. I have a big heavy blanket (sometimes two) that I sleep under as well.

I think it's one of those things that goes back to feeling comforted by my mother rocking me in her arms as a baby.

I have a thing for interesting design, do a google search for private cloud rocking bed to bring it up.
I am also a big fan of this one.

As a baby, my parents used to give me a ride in the car until I fell asleep. I had always hated naps so it was difficult to put me down for one.

I used to have a hammock chair (basically a hammock, but hung from a single point in the roof beam instead of between two things) in my room as a teen. I'd fall alseep in it all the time. It rocked pretty easily. And I still dose off in the car; makes my husband crazy on long car trips.

Li,
thanks for the designs. Really cool.
While these might be difficult to make, suspended bed should be relatively easy to make.
For example see http://freshome.com/2008/08/14/swing-wi ... ended-bed/

My mom said when I was younger, I fell right to sleep in a car. If I was crying, time for a car ride. Whenever they would stop at a red light I would start crying again, like clockwork. A swinging bed sounds really nice. Maybe you can patent it and make a lot of money. :D

A couple of my friends can attest to me easily falling asleep in the back of a car on trips. A bed like the ones pictured above would be really nice to have.

you could probably rig up a hammock (sp?) somewhere in your house

I would fall asleep in the ride from home to school. It almost physically hurt when we stopped.
