Do you like it warm or cool when you are sleeping?

We like it cool when we are sleeping. We have a heater in the bedroom and keep it warm most of the day. But when we go to bed we turn off the heater and move the top spread down to the bottom of the bed. If it gets too cold we can easily pull the spread up but that don't happen till early in the morning. They say the cool air is better for you while sleeping. So my question to you do you like it warm or cool while sleeping?

Hi Mighty and welcome to my lot. Can't stand the heat on when we are sleeping just plain too hard to breath. We do have a heater in the bedroom but it is turned off unless it is too cold outside.

I prefer it warm when I'm sleeping. If it's cold I can't sleep, and it usually gives me headaches. I don't sleep with the heater on, but I keep it long enough at night so my home will be warm enough while I'm sleeping. When it's one of those too cold days I tend to turn it on again in the middle of the night so I can sleep without problems.

Hi Madteaparty. We have breathing problems and if it is too warm we can't seem to breath. So we turn off the heater before we go to bed we keep the house about 62 degrees all day until bed time and then the heater goes off in the bedroom. Thanks

i think it depends on which region and country you are living.like here in the Philippines where we have warm weather people here likes sleeping at cool temperatures.this makes us more comfortable in sleeping thats the reason why most of the houses here in the Philippines have electric fans and air conditioners.but of course its much different when you live i colder countries where they wanted to sleep with warm temperature because of their cold weather.as for me my answer would be i like sleeping in cool temperatures.

Hi Johndur. We like it cool no matter what time of the year it is. Even in the winter. We have to turn off the heater in our bedroom just before going to bed cause it seems when it is warm we just plain can't breath good enough. Thanks

I hate it when my bedroom's cold. I don't care if it's negative 5 degrees outside and snowing, but my bedroom must stay warm. Preferably warm enough for me to keep on wearing shorts and not have to hide in between comforters.

I meant warm, not hot. Anyway, I don't really know a lot of people who like their bedrooms warm, I guess I'm just one of the few who does.

Hi Inutme. If it is too warm then it seems like we can't breath. This is the reason we keep it cool. We can wear shorts or not too much clothing in the house. We don't sleep with much on as it is.There are all kinds of blankets on the bed but they end up at the foot of the bed by morning. Thanks

I definitely like it better when it's cool rather than it's warm. Specially here in our country, we love the cool air, and we try to bask in it as often as we can, because when summer comes it would be incredibly hot, and we won't feel the cold air again until the ber months.

It's true, it's really annoying to sleep when it's really hot. That's why it's definitely better when its cooler.

My husband and I love it cold when we sleep. The reason for that is the fact that when its cold we can snuggle down in the blanket and just be there. It really is good for you too. It is relaxing and doesn't leave you wanting more heat!

Hi Angelsfire and welcome to my lot. It is better when it is cooler so me and my husband can snuggle too. And like you we think it is a lot healthier for you to sleep when it is cooler. Just seems like when it is too warm we can't breath too well. Thanks

free__man I like it just so its not chilling me. I do not like a cold room as I get too chilled then cannot sleep. like so many senior citizens I must get up to the bathroom at least once a night and dislike getting chilled, my roomie likes it cold and I warm so i turn on the heater while she turns on the fan, war of fan and heater I guess. anyway I sleep better warm not hot, but this is during the winter months only. air conditioning during the summer of course.

As far as I am concnered, I usually like the warm bed when I am going to sleep. I prefer warm so much.If my bed was so cold , I think I can not fall asleep,and I may get a cold when I am in sleep.So to my body healthy, I think , I will choose a warm situation to sleep with.

Hi Monkey. It is nice to have a warm bed but I do prefer to sleep when we have a cool bedroom. We have to turn off the heater in the bedroom even when it is cool outside. We did have it on a couple of weeks ago when it was only 3-4 degrees outside. Thanks

I like it cool, but when i get too cold i just cover up myself with my blanket and when it get warm i let the cold breaze in. The cold air can actually make you more sleepy, like it makes you sleep in. It makes you more lazy, that's taken from my experience. When it's warm i get up pretty early, if it's cold i sleep in because it's more comfortable.

Hi Agito. It is nice to sleep when it is cooler. We don't sleep in hardly we are usually up by 6am and already busy don't matter what time of the year it is. We do have plenty of blankets on the bed but they usually land up at the foot of the bed before morning. Thanks

I have no idea, after all I am just sleeping :D However, I have noticed that I often wake up in the middle of the night tired and sweating because I haven't turned off the heat, I'd rather to sleep in a cooler bedroom with a warm blanket.

Hi Enyniya and welcome to my lot. Love it when it is cool cause then we aren't sweating. We don't leave the heater on durning the night unless it is so cold outside. It was 3-4 degrees a week or so back and we did have the heater on then. But even then we had cast off the covers durning the night. Thanks

Hi Milford and welcome to my lot. Do like it cool so we can pull the covers up on us. But they end up at the bottom of the bed before morning. Have to have a fan on us during the warmer months. Seems like we can't breath as good during the warmer months. Thanks

I have always been sleeping in a warm room, but recently I started sleeping with the heater off. I don't feel the difference, but they say it's healthier to sleep in a cool room. If I spend any time in my room before I go to sleep and the heater is off, I'm really cold and that's why I go to bed sooner.

Hi Tanchyka and welcome to my lot. We don't usually turn off the heater till it is about bed time. We have it on so we can go in and out of there to do what ever we need to do but don't like the heater on when we sleep. We have plenty of blankets on the bed but they end up at the foot of the bed by morning. Thanks

I hate the cold, so for me to be able to get a good nights sleep it needs to be warm. I have an electric heater in my bedroom, an electric blanket on the bed. I wear two pairs of socks too!

I like sleeping when it's cold too. Being tucked in the comforter and lots of pillows. Thinking about it makes me want to sleep already:)

As you know, when we are about to sleep that's the time we wanna be comfortable and free from all the hassle and pollution that we encountered during the day so most of us prefer our bedroom to be cool because we can easily sleep when it's cool and its nice to sleep when it's cold rather than when it's hot or warm. Your sleep will be long and sweet when it's cool and it's pretty much comfortable especially when the climate is hot.

Hi Cloud. I love it when it is cooler. When it is too warm it just is miserable to me. We have to have a fan on us when it is too warm outside. Seems like we can't breath as well when it warmer. Thanks

i love to sleep in a cold surrounding. especially when its raining or if there is a storm raging. the cold makes it more comfortable to doze off in dreamland and its very nice to huddle underneath the comforter with lots of fluffy pillows.
