Last night I ended up having a rather heated debate with a friend about whether you should wear knickers in bed. She said absolutely not - you should let your 'bits' air. I said yes - because then you don't have to change your pyjamas every singles day and also because it just feels better. Who is right? (Me obviously but interested to know what others think)
I coukdnt sleep nakie but wear as little as possible as I'm always boiling. My ideal bedtime attire is a thin tee shirt and a pair of shorty style knickers. Or if I am feeling posh a little sexy thin nightie.
I'm a shower-pee-er -why ever not? - it all goes down the plughole.
"We stayed unexpectedly at DBandSiL's after a late night with no clothes etc" - interesting ann - what sort of late night party was this?
I am coming to the conclusion that we must be especially stingy when it comes to heating as no-one could sleep naked here in the winter - they would freeze!
Like Jane says, TMI all over this thread!! Hope I forget it all before I meet some of these posters! I'm not telling you why I wear pants in bed, you'll be relieved to know!
When my mum bought me my first nightie, when I was about eight (it was always PJs before that), she noticed that I'd put knickers on under it, and laughingly told me that you didn't wear knickers with a nightie. I was very embarrassed, and needless to say have never worn the two together since!
I wear nothing in bed, but full-length dressing gown and nightshirt are within easy reach in case of fire/burglars/loo visits/other emergencies. If I am in hospital, I wear knickers and modest nightwear - not keen on people seeing my skinny bum!
If you sleep naked every drop of moisture is absorbed into your sheet and mattress, multiply that by two for the occupants in the bed. Assuming that mattresses are renewed once every ten years that is one disgusting mattress. I wear pjs but only use a summer weight duvet even in the winter.
I never never wear knickers in bed! Just a soft cotton nightie - and I often take that off when I get hot. But I often wear knickers with a nightie if pottering around the house - just more comfy. I'm glad that dgd doesn't wear knickers with her pyjamas either - best for children not to be obsessive about such things? I think its healthier to be less "constricted" - but it has to be a personal choice, I guess.
