Do you use something to keep your bed warm?

I was having a lot of pain from arthritis so I bought one of those foam mattress pad covers...not the real expensive miracle foam or whatever it is called, but something less expensive. But it really helped my knees from aching every night!

That sounds like a great idea. I used to use an electric blanket, but when I got pregnant I sweat so bad at night that I took it off and just haven't put it back on. I'll have to put that on my wish list. Thanks!

I am happier with this mattress pad, but they are harder to find. I have know lots of poeple who use the electric blankets. It saves on heating the entire house.

No I don't. Well I have more than 1 blanket, but none of them are electric blankets or anything like that.

I used to feel so comforted at grandma's house, under lots and lots of heavy quilts, and no heat in the house. I was lucky not to have to turn on the heat.

You are so right, some places you just do not need them.

That is a really great idea. Where did you buy them? My husband has a back problems and I am wondering if this would help him.

Penneys had them when I got mine. I ordered them online because we did not have a store. I am sure you can find one with a search. Also tell your husband to sleep on his side with a pillow between the knees--I told my husband this when we first met, and he is sold on it.

Yeah I had one when I was a kid. It stopped working or I would still be using it. I have asked for one for Christmas. I want one for my daughter (she's 10) and we have a space heater in my son's room (he's 6 months) so we are toasty at night and can turn down the heat at night!

Penneys was where I got mine. I ordered them online as our town does not have a store.

Some people swear by waterbeds. I use a capsaicin creme--like Zostrix, instead of Icy Hot--it is made with the oil from hot peppers.

I use a two blankets, a body pillow, my adorable puppy, and my two sisters! I have never had an electric blanket or electric matresses. They sound warm!!
