I sleep with a teddy bear at night. It is actually Poo Bear from Winnie the Poo. I can't get a good night's sleep without my teddy bear, and if I were to go on a journey,Poo would have to travel with me.:) OK, I know there are some of you out there that sleep with bears,pigs,and other stuffed animals. Care to share,or is too embarrassing to mention? It's OK to share. We are all friends here at mylot.

i think that's cute, even if you're already an adult. haha. i don't sleep with a teddy. i sleep with pillows, a couple of pillows actually, and i usually grab one or two to hug. i can't sleep without hugging a pillow. and i don't know why.

I don't sleep with anything. Just some pillows and my blankets. Nothing special.

I have a teddy bear...but I only sleep with it when I am not feeling good. It's more like a comfort thing for me. I don't usually sleep with the teddy bear though. My sister on the other hand use to sleep with her frog when she was younger. She couldn't sleep without it. We even had to take it on vacations with us. I think she slept with the frog until she left for college.

You must be very young - and at my age till this point of my life, no. But I have seen little kids sleeping with stuffed animals. My niece, by the way, sleeps with her toy kids - and it looks very cute, say I must. Happy mylotting.

i don't think it's embarrassing to mention here that some people can't sleep without some stuffs with them.i personally have a net with me specifically in my feet. i stuffed something like a net just for my feet to be scratched with. i can't sleep without it really. even when im on the plane, i make it sure that i brought with me my net for my feet. i prefer a cut part of a mosquito net.

Do your feet get itchy? Did you used to sleep with a mosquito net over your bed? That is very interesting.

I don't need a stuffed animal, I sleep with my two dogs! I used to have a teddy bear years and years ago, it was actually a little black and white Panda bear but I don't ever remember it being bright white because it was held so much! One advantage to having a teddy bear, though, is that it doesn't stretch out all over the bed or steal the covers like my dogs do!

Although I don't hug my plushes while I am sleeping, I do keep them infront of me on a chair. I have Garfield, Snoopy, Doraemon, a gray wolf, as well as the Energizer Bunny (the real one, with the drum and stick, and of course the sun glasses) sitting around. I enjoy seeing them, but I don't want to hug them in my sleep, as I don't want them to get all greasy and dirty, this way they look as new as they were made yesterday. My Garfield is holding his favourite teddy bear, so I'll him do the honor of hugging at night. Hugging stuffed animal is really fun, if there is a kind of plush that doesn't get dirty or greasy I'd like to hold them again.

Well, fortunately, my teddy can handle the washing machine. Although, I was drying a stuffed piggy my sis gave to me and I had it on too warm a setting, and it kinda made piggy's fur a bit shorter. He's not as fluffy as he once was, so it looks like a skinny pig now. I have a pic saved on my cell phone of his salad days as a fluffy piggy. I know it's silly to get attached to a stuffed animal, but I am allergic to most pets and my apartment doesn't allow them. Sux.

its ok to sleep with poo. and u cant get a sleep without the poo because you have got used to it. i feel the same way when i dont have an extra pillow. if you are older than 16 then, going journey with poo is little too extreme. try to get rid of that. many people may find you weird. is too embarrassing to mention? well that depends on your age. if u are older than 25 it may be to mention that u sleep with poo. actually it depends on the person who you are talking to. there are some people who dont understand needs like those.

ummmm,38! LOL! Love the comment about the stuffed wombat. Didn't know they had those. Hahahaha! How long have you had the wombat, and if possible, could you upload a pic of that? I'm curious what a stuffed version would look like. Kinda goth if you ask me. Are you a Goth? I'm a "recovering" Goth.

Thanks for sharing your story! When I was a young boy I used to sleep with a teddy bear up till the age of six. Then I had some friends who laughed at me and therefore I stopped doing so. Now since I have been married I prefer to sleep with a human teddy bear! At least my better half keeps me warm on a cold night in bed.

You are old enough and i think you should find a partner to sleep with instead of teedy bears. This would be more enjoyable.

2 years ago, I can sleep with my teddy bear stuffed toy, but now, I can't anymore because my mom is suspecting me that I got it from my boyfriend, so I can't sleep with it anymore. Maybe someday when I have my own house, I can be with it anytime I want.

I don't sleep with a bear or any stuffed animal anymore. There is no room on the bed between myself, my husband and a very large orange fluff ball calling himself my cat. His name is Precious and he's the cutest thing there is when it comes to this kind of thing. Since he's a living breathing animal I guess I don't need the stuffed kind.

Yes I do. I have two teddy bears and they're special to me coz they've been given by the men in my life. My dad and my boyfriend. I sleep with my teddy bears but they're just sitting on my bed watching me sleep, I do not hug them coz they're both big!
