Sleeping with one leg under the covers and one leg out

Foxhound38

I've done this since I was a kid for temperature control and assumed it was normal enough, but the OH seems to think it's very strange. So I've decided to put the matter to vote and solve it once and for all!

Absurdum

I do it all the time

If you wanted to put it to vote then you'll need a poll.

The system posts your message before it lets you put a poll up - it's done now

As odd as it may sound I do it when I have trouble sleeping.

gooch2k9

Never did...

Which leg?

Mena

Do the same, though it's usually 50% out

SteelyDanJalapeno

And of course one arm under the pillow?!

I have always wanted to do this,especially on a warm muggy night, but after a few seconds I quickly pull my leg back in under the covers for fear of some kind of monster biting off my leg.

Birdster

Yup when I can't sleep

chin_grin

Yeah, but this coupled with turning the pillow to the cold side every now and then.

What about the monster?

LOL

yup, do it all the time, I get ridiculously warm in bed so always have one arm and one leg outside the covers, and maintain a steady cool side flipping pillow routine throughout the night

We had a cat when we were kids who would give unsuspecting toes a nip! He was a nutter. He actually used to terrorise old people by acting all mad around them.

He used to have to be put out when there were visitors because he'd embarras my parents!

Always sleep with one leg out, way too hot othewise!

Yup, one leg acts as an air conditioning unit for the body, otherwise it will suffocate to death under the duvet :eek:

I thought that was just me! :eek::D

My two legs stay under while the middle leg sleeps outside the covers

Senna

Do it all the time, sometimes i leave the leg out but get the foot back in under the duvet. Dont like my feet to be cold

Abi

Yip, I do it too. Well its either one bit or another. Could be a leg, could be the tush.

Though, I bought a fan for my room recently, because I couldnt find a happy medium in the room temp wise. I find it easier to have the duvet covering me now, but only if the fan is on. This only works if the human radiator isn't beside me though :pac:

Fart

Yeah, I do it too, but I have to make sure my knob doesn't slip out in case the parents come in in the morning and get a shock and think I'm not my dads soon.

(Or my mothers o.O).

its that warm these days that both legs and an arm are uncovered

My girlfriend does this and it drives me mad so I sleep with one of my legs over her legs to try and prevent it.

miss no stars

nah - not in Ireland anyway but sometimes on holidays if it's REALLY REALLY hot but even then last summer I stayed under my duvet in the north american heatwave. Just too cold here - one arm got left out last night by mistake and I woke up shivering.

I tend to wrap my duvet around me and sleep on my front (no pillows). Nice and cosy so it is.

Always sleep with one leg out ,one in, eventually followed by the whole duvet at bottom of bed .I like to slide the leg out toes between bed sheet .It's my erogenous zone thing ...;)

Cass

Have done this since i wa a kid. Left leg only for some reason. Drives herself mad. Apparently i keep doing in throughout the night. You know, in - out - in - out ya shake it all about.

watna

Yep, I do it too - my OH also thinks it's strange. I'll direct him to this thread so
