What do you sleep in?

[LitigatorChick]

Pre-baby, nothing. Post-baby (1st year) when I was up a lot, pajama pants and tanks. Now, I am up a bit with the little man at night, so I am moving into camis and boy shorts (in an attempt to be a bit sexier and less mommy). What do you where to bed???

 

[Erin]

A clean white undershirt from my boyfriend's drawer. Usually lose it around 2am where it stays on the floor, or at the foot of the bed inside the sheets, or tucked behind my pillow against the headboard... It really bugs me to have something that could come up around my neck.

 

[LitigatorChick]

Dare I ask what is going on at 2 a.m.???

 

[OUpearlgirl]

Haha I either sleep in my boyfriends big t shirts and basketball shorts or actual, real pajamas. You know, they kind that button and match.. I have two dressers full of them. It''s pathetic.

 

[Rhea]

Comfy clothes!! Always have. In the summer it tends to be a tank top and undies. In the winter PJ bottoms, long sleeved shirt, and sock.

 

[Linda W]

I''ll never tell!!!

 

[mimzy]

regardless of what i ''start out'' wearing to bed (if i feel a little

and FI is over) i usually end up wearing long jammy pants, tucked into calf high fuzzy socks, a supersoft tank top night gown and my long bathrobe. and yes, it looks just as ridiculous as it sounds. but i like to be cozy! FI has cut his losses and accepted it.

It depends on the temperature. When it's hot, nothing or undies and a t-shirt/tank top. If it's cold (which I'm really hoping won't be an issue this year since we're in a well insulated house instead of a poorly insulated rented townhouse) pj pants and a t-shirt.

 

[happy in love]

Well, it used to be nothing, then for some strange reason I started thinking that if something happened (fire, break in, insert random trouble here) that I would much rather be dressed if I had to run out of the house.

Wow, typing that made me laugh! I''m nuts sometimes!

Now, poor DH gets me in either a tank top and pj pants or an old college t-shirt and undies or his old worn in boxers. For only being married 2.5 months you''d think I''d make more of an effort!

Uhm, sometimes we play pattycake

A cami and boxers...I adore the men''s cotton boxers from the gap - some of them come with really girlie designs on them, like little sheep or pineapples or whatnot, so I get really excited when they''re on clearance, because it''s usually those girlie prints that you can get for a steal.


..I suppose this might move into the TMI region, but a doctor once told me that underwear is a big no-no when you sleep, and the best bedtime attire is actually a cotton nightgown/slip.

Usually a cami and shorts. With three kids I never know what may happen in the night or who may wake me up in the morn. so I''d better be decent.

ROFL!

LOL!

It depends on the temperature. When it's hot, just undies. Or undies and a tank. Usually I'm in a long sleeve shirt and pj pants.

I also used to sleep in the altogether but I roam the house at night too much now. Also with three sons, one almost 16 and one almost 13, plus their various sleep over pals, I feel I must be covered. I wear tanks that are not sheer and solid bottoms. They are cute, not sexy, but certainly not matronly either.I just make sure they are NOT see through or revealing in any way.

On vacay the more sexy stuff comes out, so hubby does not forget I am not just a mom!

I get sweaty at night now (the change?) and wish I was comfy sleeping naked again, but I am not, and worry about having to rush out of bed in the middle of night in an emergency (leftover from living in earthquake prone L.A. for my whole life til recently!)

 

[ephemery1]

I hate sleeping naked! I''m impressed by all of you who do. I just feel uncomfortable without SOMEthing on, when I''m reading before falling asleep, trapising to the bathroom at 3am, getting up in the morning, etc. Maybe that''s indicative of some sort of subconscious hang-up, who knows.

My standard night-time uniform is yoga pants/capris and a tee/cami/tank... and I usually change into it as soon as I get home from work or dinner or wherever I''ve been. No bra or undies. DH hates when I wear big, oversized things, and the poor guy doesn''t ask for much, so I try to at least make sure everything fits.

 

[fisherofmengirly]

I never knew this was weird until I went to college and had roommates, but I always (ALWAYS) sleep in socks. I can''t sleep with my feet naked. It makes me nuts and the sheets get all wrapped up around my toes and I wake up. So, always socks, hot or cold. I always wear something to bed, but it''s pretty random what it ends up being. I like old navy jammies the best, but Paul calls them old lady. Pff... like his stretched out tshirts aren''t old man style!

 

[LitigatorChick]

Socks!!! Never - my feet always get so warm in bed!!!!

I bought myself some new Hanky Panky camis and bottoms today!!! I really likey!!!

 

[diamondfan]

OMG I could never sleep in socks unless it was the dead of winter without heat on.

I am overheating regularly and I often put a foot out from under the covers so I am not boiling or roasting. Honestly, between the heating pad for my aches and pains, the quilt because I get the shivers and the hot flashes, it is NOT pretty.

LC, where do they sell HP in your area? The stuff is so cute. It is hard to find cute but sensible pj''s. I get a lot from PJ Salvage and I also love Felina and Lilly Pulitzer often has cute summery ones.

 

[LitigatorChick]

I can get it at a couple places. Most easily, at Holt Renfrew. Also, at a couple lingerie places in my city.

 

[LitigatorChick]

And if you go to their website, you can enter your zip code and it lists all the nearby places that sell. They have some cute stuff on their website too.

 

[FrekeChild]

Undies. Usually of the string bikini persuasion.

 

[LitigatorChick]

No shoes, Freke?????

 

[diamondfan]

thanks, I will check it out!

 

[diamondfan]

Michelle, I can shiver and be freezing one minute and drenched in sweat the next. A real joy!!!

 

[Haven]

Nothing or a tank top and panties.

I can''t believe some of you wear socks to bed! I can barely stand having them on my feet during the DAY, let alone at night! So funny.

 

[Dreamer_D]

Nekkid baby!

But I do worry what would happen if there was an emergency and I had to run out of the house really quickly... Mental checklist: grab the dogs, grab a towel, get outta the house!

 

[Linda W]

I wear socks to bed in winter. My feet are freeeeezing then. DH doesn''t like my cold feet on him, so I have to wear socks. ha ha ha ha.
