The last few days it's been so hot, there's a heatwave going on. Usually, my house is quite cool, but when it stays this warm for so many days in a row, it heats up quite a bit. In these temperatures, I always have trouble sleeping. I can't stand the heat of my blanket, but at the same time I don't really like the feeling of having nothing on me when I sleep. It's really frustrating, because I wake up in the middle of the night and have problems going back to sleep again.
Do you have this problem as well? What do you do to make the heat more bearable?

We would open a pair of our screened windows when it is hot. But when it is still so hot, I would usually take off my loose shirt and just hug my small pillow to my bust . It is so cool that way. No blanket , just a thin scarf that covers my butt.

Yes, I have this problem I find it very difficult to sleep in heat
I have tried multiple things.. I sleep in front of the Air Conditioner and fan
when I did not have an Air conditioner I used to put on a really big and slightly damp t-shirt and have the fan blowing on me and it would at least usually help me to fall asleep.. I usually woke up again after it dried off and the heat started getting to me again. or I would Wet my hair also and lay down in front of the fan too... it helps cool the body off.

Warm weather does bring restless sleep. You could try sleeping with fans circulating air.
