Yes I've got a bear. I'm single -I need something to cuddle Grin

I snuggle a pillow instead. it stems from missing the bump after my pregnancies Blush

I can't bear cuddling anything/anyone in bed, I'm such a cold fish! Good job I've been single for yonks.

I have a bear. Usually cuddled when DH is away or up early.

I have a teddy bear. My children chose it and stuffed it for me at a bear factory. It is extra special as the lovely sales assistant let them put a silk heart in each - which they did a little rhyme with first and then kissed it before it was sewn in.
I cuddle it most nights, my children said it would help me sleep better (I suffer from insomnia) as their build a bears work when they can't sleep.
It hasn't helped yet, but I live in hope.

I have the bear (well rabbit) my nan gave me 33 years ago on my 5th birthday Grin

She has always slept on my bed.

No bears here, it's rabbits.I was sleeping without them until DS1s pregnancy when they moved back to my bed for some comfort, 9 months after, plus somd recovery time before I felt human again, and they'd made themselves at home.

I have a pig. I've had him for about 20 years. I don't actively cuddle him, he just sits on my nightstand.

I have a teddy too. I don't sleep with him every night, just on nights when I'm feeling sad or lonely.

Yes, when I met DH he had to contend with all the plushies in my bed. Sadly he made an ultimatum of either him or them. They now sit on a shelf.

But sometimes they find their way in the bed. I have a few tigers, a grunty, a luma plushie, and some pandas (I guess those are like teddies).

I think I'm going to re-adopt one of mine. They've all been passed on to DD but she brought on into our bed last night and I ended up cuddling it. It was bliss! Don't know how I'm going to convince her though...

I have a teddy (well, he's a dog not a bear), used to cuddle him when I lived alone, didn't make it into the bed when I moved in with DH but both him and DH's favourite childhood teddy have lived in our bedroom through two house moves.

I have a baby in my bed to cuddle up to now :)
