yep my ds also gets v sweaty when sleeping

I would think that the low temp is because the sweat is cooling her forehead down. Can you try to use a proper thermometer (if you're concerned)?

My DCs sometimes get sweaty while sleeping.

Maybe it's just lack of air getting around - breathing into the sofa abit and it's condensation/sweat?
