One leg in one leg out is a sound strategy to cool down in bed?

[Mouldyfoodhelp]

You get into bed you're hot, you take the cover off you're cold. Natural solution half in half out right?

I do that!

Yes, or both lower legs out and hips/bum covered!

No, feet out the bottom but legs covered is the way to go.

Legs work like a heatsink, so uncovering one or both will help you shed body heat quicker

Yep, I have been known to do that on occasion. Why do you ask?

Yes, I often do this.

I do it too. Works.

But what about the monsters under the bed? They only grab what isn't under the duvet!

yes. My preferred method is to roll over with the lower-half of the quilt kinda between my legs so the top leg is cooling, and the bottom leg is out. It's tricky to get the balance right so there's not a draft up my back, but it means one leg isn't potentially dangling for the monster under the bed to grab, plus I'm a side-sleeper anyway.

Yep, it works for the males in my household (and the female, when she is recovering from a hot flush. When she is in the actual throes of a hot flush the duvet gets violently shoved aside, but half and half works well as the heat recedes 🔥 ).

I thought it was so cute when ds started sticking one leg out in the exact same way his df does.

Of course! It's why if we ever end up with a bed against a wall, I always take the 'open' side. I can't sleep against a wall.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who considered the monster under the bed.

We are being roped in to settle an argument, is my guess 🙂

This is the way. YANBU.

I have this but when my feet are uncovered I fear the serial killer hiding under my bed will grab my feet. However, if my feet are not exposed, he won't bother me

Mandalorian fan?

Best way.

A hand and a foot is the best way. If you have a whole leg or a whole arm they will end up cold.

Do you dare to eat a peach though?

Love love love that poem ❤️ Ref username for those who think I am barking.

Also, turn your pillow over. Result, one ice- cold pillow. I’ve never worked out why this is so, but it works.

Both feet out is far more effective.

What gave me away ;)

As long as your foot doesn’t hang over the side of the bed, you’re fine.

Absolutely correct procedure. This technique is known as ‘spider legging’ in our household, as in one leg on the web to pick up the vibes of anything wandering about out there. Of course, no foot must dally too long off the edge of the bed due to monsters. Monsters are known to be unable to climb.

Me too. Dd does the same.
