@autumnlove: you *are* a giant.
We have a king. I literally don't comprehend how couples do full or queen. Dh's foot in my face at 3am? No thanks!

queen and that's as much as could fit in our tiny bedroom (which only fits the bed!). it's already pushed up against the wall on one side and the other has just about a foot between the edge and the wall. it might be tight once I get a belly--we have 2 pups snuggling in there with us as well

King - DH and I would need separate beds if we went smaller. We are not sleepy cuddlers, at ALL.

King, easily on the top 5 best decisions of our marriage. I can't stand being touched when sleeping.

Queen, with a dog and a cat. I fantasize about having a king every night. I really want one, but our current bed/mattress is only 2 years old and I have trouble justifying it. Really wish we had just gotten a king in the first place!

@mrs. bird: I had this concern but trust me, you'd get over it
We had a queen for a couple of years but when we moved in March upgraded to a king. It is life changing!
And if we miss each other we just cuddle close in the middle of the bed! It's fabulous.

King, there is no way we could coexist in anything smaller - I'm a hot sleeper.

We have had a king for a little less than a year, and it's one of the best decisions we ever made! I am a light sleeper, and I get really hot at night so it has been life changing for me!

@SweetiePie: really??? I wrap myself around DH's arm before going to sleep, like a bear hug around his arm. Do you sleep together in the middle? Or do you go to his side? I've woken up in a panic in hotels because I thought he was gone, but really he was just on his side. Haha. I'm a baby. He calls his arm my lovey because I need it to sleep.

@mrs. bird: we meet in the middle, usually.
He's a cuddler and I don't like to touch while we sleep. So usually we cuddle in the middle until he is asleep or almost asleep. Then I pry myself away and go to sleep on my side. I like to cuddle before sleep but after like 5-10 mins max I just want space. So it works well for us.
AND I will say the king is much better for BD'ing

We have a queen, and it is a problem! We are saving pennies to buy a nice Cal King bed - preferably TempurPedic.

King. Love it so much especially since we don't like to touch in our sleep!
We have friends who used to sleep in a full and they co-bedded wit their toddler. I don't know how they did it!

We have a full-size, but we're debating moving up to a queen. Our bedroom is kind of small, so I need to tape out the measurements to see if there is room.

Currently queen, but we move in two weeks and bought a king for our new master. I can't WAIT to sleep in it!!

We currently have a Queen, but when we move to a bigger house with a bigger bedroom we will get a King.

We have a queen and it works fine for us + babe, but we both agree that when my husband gets his first real paycheck (after residency) we are upgrading to a king.
We got the queen when we were first dating, and my husband needed a new bed for his apartment. We split the cost of the cheapest mattress in the store, and I remember being terrified about that kind of a commitment!

We shared a twin when we first started dating since that's what I had A queen ever since though!

Queen. For 2.5 years living together, we slept in a full size bed. I have no idea how we managed it, but we did.

We have a full
We've been talking for so long about getting a queen, but we just haven't had a chance. It's definitely tight, but DH and I aren't big people by any means. So many of our friends cannot believe we still sleep in a full bed!

Cal King Tempurpedic! We love it, except sheets are sooo pricey, argh.

@LindsayInNY: Wait, what?! You shared a twin? For how long?! Y'all must've reaaaally loved each other

@allison: Haha, I had a twin in my studio apartment. Whenever he slept over, we slept in that! We moved in together after a year of dating so luckily it wasn't *that* long!

@LindsayInNY: DH and I used a twin when he'd sleep over in my door room! Those were fun times.
Luckily, we now have a cal king. DH is tall and we just generally like our own space.

@MissyKris: LOL!!!!
@mrs. bird: Aww! His arm is your lovey - so cute!
We have a queen, and are okay with it. A king would be nice, but I love how comfy our queen is. We do need to buy a new mattress soon though. But if we upgrade to a king, we'd have to buy a new bed frame/post too.
