Keeping warm

I’ve had night-sweats for 22!years so I sleep.naked apart from pants …can’t tolerate wearing anything else in bed .my duvet is only 3 tog…I do finially wake up cold about 3am then pull over the throw that’s sits on bottom of bed!

I feel the cold terribly, particularly hands and feet. Sleep in long-sleeve full-length nightie (thank you Damart). No heating in bedroom. 9 tog down duvet. Have two hot water bottles which I keep to myself as DH hates them and goes beserk if one of them gets near him. Manage to keep warm and snug all night apart from chilly trips to the loo. Wake up in the morning to damp windows/condensation which DH says is because I keep breathing...mmm

13.5 tog duvet, t shirt nightdress - if it’s really cold or I’ve got aches and pains a water bottle and sometimes a fleecy blanket over the top. Even at 63 still get occasional hot flush in the night and then I have to put a leg out to cool down before re covering 🤣

Can’t wear anything in bed as it wakes me up (except when grandchildren are staying!!!) however 13.5 duvet, think fluffy blanket on top heated foot pad (easy to put on for an extra hour after going to loo in the night … & 4 (yes) hot water bottles for various bits of me that are achy. It’s a bit of a palaver getting to bed!!!

I like long sleeved tops and long pyjama bottoms, sometimes bed socks if it's really cold. An electric blanket warms the bed before I get in but it's not an 'all nighter' - I'm reasonably warm.

I can't bear wearing anything in bed as it always gets twisted and chokes me. I am however a cold mortal and can't bear to be cold, but my Night Owl 10.5 tog coverless duvet keeps me perfectly warm enough and this is the first winter that I haven't needed a hot water bottle.

And by the way I never have the heating on at night.

Warm up bed for half an hour with an electric under blanket before getting in and then switch it off. I have a 13.5 tog feather duvet, panties and a long sleeved nightie, which seems to move up to my waist by itself, infuriating. Never any heating on and never cold in bed.

Depends on why I go to bed.

lol

13.5 tog duvet, 2 hot water bottles, woollen socks, long pyjam pants, long sleeved pyjam top and leisure jumper with hood.

Brilliant love this one

So funny some of the comments. I’ve got a very sexy nightie NOT fleece nighty bed socks my husbands face says it all . I feel the cold and if he takes the duvet I’m warm

Thank you Norah for giving me a much needed laugh !!

Oh I missed that one ... Ha ha

I wear long sleeved nightdress in winter and a short sleeved one in summer.
Nice warm duvet . What else does one need.

I certainly won’t be opening the window when it’s minus 3 centigrade or below.
Madness.!!!

I inherited mums goose down quilt, and, with a hottie, I sleep better with the window open! My old man really feels the cold, so has multiple layers.

I wear a t-shirt and knickers - but I preheat the bed and leave the foot end on low all night. I, too, have trouble turning over with my bad back. I like shiny satin sheets (to make movement easier), my weighted blanket - and a second blanket or summer duvet on top. In this freezing weather, I use both.

My small dog makes a good (if somewhat itchy) back warmer. Next to the bed, though, are fleecy PJ bottoms, warm socks slipper boots and a dressing gown - all to be put on before venturing far. What a rigmarole, just to nip to the loo!

Although I do feel the cold I cannot stand much weight of bedding. I wear knickers and short nightdress and a 4.5 duvet over me. There is no heating in the bedroom but I have an electric under blanket which is kept on at the lowest heat.
Having had spinal problems all my life and managed to get an electric blanket before they were available to the unlicensed.

T shirt and woolly socks, I suffer from the cold. During the day I have thermal leggings, trousers, 2 pairs of socks and 2 layers on top with a big hoodie. Still cold 🥶 😩

2 pairs of socks,I have reynauds,long sleeves nightie,10.5 duvet,flanalette sheets top and bottom and a fleece over blanket.Window has to be open though.

Not a lot. No heating either. But we do have an extra duvet on the bed in Winter (I’ve no idea what tog either is).

I do have a good selection of nighties and pyjamas, even Christmas themed ones, for when we go away or have grandchildren staying. I always feel uncomfortable in them, but would hate to traumatise any hosts or guests!

Definitely,honestly only Chanel No 5!

We have a heated under blanket - I have my half at the lowest setting and switch it off as soon as I get into bed, and husband uses the top setting and leaves it to switch itself off, once he is asleep. We don’t have heating in the bedroom overnight, so it can get quite cold overnight as the house is old and our bedroom in the eaves ( so cannot be insulated) I use pyjamas in the winter-long sleeves with a cowl neck to keep my neck warm, and if really chilly a fleece hat. Our Duvet is a 10.5 tog but in very cold weather husband tends to wrap himself up in it - leaving me uncovered so I have a oversized fleece hoody to don if I wake up chilly.
I’ve never understood short sleeved winter pyjamas!

A crop top to anchor the boobs, a vest over that, long sleeved, knee-length, cotton jersey night dress over the top, leggings, socks. 10.5 tog, king size duvet on my 4'6" divan (the overhang cuts out draughts), a blanket over that and a springer spaniel on top. I also take two wheaty bags with me. Sometimes I have to kick the socks off.... I sleep alone if you don't count the dog 😀
