Jane watling Posted February 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'm not a great sleeper, years of odd scheduling, nights, evenings, double shifts, returning to work with less than 8 hours off, 12 hour shifts, etc. I sleep pretty lightly. Been known to shout, talk, scream, move around during sleep, have, in fact, awoken myself talking or screaming. Since living here, I've been aware of slight vibrations in my bed now and then, worse during day. Night sometimes totally without sensations. I thought it was traffic in my neighborhood. Live within 1/2 mile of well used freeway and bridges. Acquired a sleep number bed about a month ago and now have the subtle vibrations all the time. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon?

freetoroam Posted February 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2017 By the title I thought this was going to be another advert. Maybe you should alter the title of your thread. And I suggest you get a new mattress. If the one you have has springs, then you could very well feel vibrations if you live near a busy freeway and a bridge. It could also have something to do with the building you live in. What floor are you on? is it an apartment? how many others live there? can you give us some description on what you live in? 9 minutes ago, Jane watling said: Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Not sure I would go that far to call it a phenomenon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was traffic in my neighborhood. Live within 1/2 mile of well used freeway and bridges. That could be it ! I know when I crash out, I am a heavy sleeper, but when I have restless night any faint little 'disturbance' seems to be the thing that is keeping me awake and annoying me . Some nights , I can even hear trucks going up the mountain 15km away ! One night in a wind storm I had two large trees come down and land within inches of my cabin ...... never woke up until dawn ! 39 minutes ago, Jane watling said: Acquired a sleep number bed about a month ago and now have the subtle vibrations all the time. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Yes, as I said above . Also , as strange as it seems , it can depend on local geology . Maybe a latex mattress ? .... or a blow up circular 'mattress ' and a drink , far far away from it all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still not sure how she got vibratex in the title instead of vibrates....maybe the vibratex is what is making the mattress vibrate....i am no mechanic, but this could be a battery problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretSanta Posted February 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Talk to your doctor. There are medical conditions that can cause a vibrating sensation. You may just notice it when you're not moving about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

preacherman76 Posted February 24, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I get the same thing every time I take a nap during the day. Doesn't matter where I am, it always happens. Really strange feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
