A Pea Under the Mattress.

Of course all girls are princesses...But I'm feeling a little curious.
With my weight loss, I am now finding that every wrinkle, every crinkle, every twist, hem and thread in my bed is causing me discomfort. It has turned into a total routine to unwrinkled sheets and lay my jammies flat in order to get to sleep. Is this due to not as much fluff to my body to mask the wrinkles? Has my girth caused low sensitivity and now I am back to feeling wrinkles in the sheets?
This post is not meant to be gooey-ewie-or otherwise. I just can't figure out what this new sensitivity is about?

Ummmm I'm just loving the fact that when I lay on my side, I no longer have a big belly tugging on my side and stretching my skin and feeling very very uncomfortable...:bigsmile: As for more wrinkles and crinkles and stuff, ummmmm I roll up in my blanket like a burrito So I don't really have the problem. My fiance works nights I work days so I can do dat :smokin: But on his days off where I have to share the blanket I do find it harder to get comfortable. Wierd, huh?:huh:

Try getting a memory foam topper - it should help!0

I'm surprised that nobody else is having this issue. I seriously can't figure out what the problem is for me. I'm constantly up and unwrinkling. does skin become more sensitive as we lose weight? No really...68 people have looked at this, but am I the only one???
<~~~~ Here's the surprised look...LOL :laugh:

Yeah, you're one in a million huni :bigsmile:0 -
I'm pretty sensitive about my sleep.
I won't sleep well if the sheet slips off the corner of the bed, a cat toy snuck in there, etc. This isn't really related to my weight tho. You can see on my ticker that I am still a pretty big girl.
Any chance it is a caffeine thing? Or are your exercising at night now?
Sometimes I just need to be exhausted to get a good nights sleep!0 -
Princess.....don't know why you're feeling every bumple, but, I do love our memory foam mattress topper, not terribly $ at Sam's and adds a loverly softness, but doesn't mess up the firmness of the bed. You might not notice the 'peas' as much.
I suppose it could be an increased sensitivity, are you doing anything different at night, coffee, or anything with caffeine??? Anything that would keep you from relaxing???Stress??? I know If I can't sleep for whatever reason everything can bug me, the tag in my jammies, Jamerz' breathing, anything....
And Kellch....I'm married to one of the original hairy chested sheet snatchers so can sympathize!!! I finally put two blankets side by side on the bed, that way he can burrito in his and I still have mine to wrap in or throw off (depending on the warm or freezing state of the body.:huh:
Just FINALLY getting out of the several years of chronic non-sleep ...thank you mother nature's messed up hormones :explode: ....so can definitely relate to sleep problems. Finally I can gripe and then give a sigh of relief!0 -

Exactly what I was thinking. :flowerforyou: With how active you are, you may need more time to chill and decompress to sleep.0 -

Well Max being Max I will say something I was not going to.
Some Nights I feel a little edgy and restless and therefore sleep in the buff. It is usually one of those nights where U roll over and your clothes dont move at all.
Ezzie you bring up a good question, I will watch my caffine and see if it makes a difference.0 -

I was going to say sleep naked. Max just beat me to it. I can't sleep with anything on. When we stay somewhere else I always sleep poorly, because I have to wear jammies.0

See BEFORE, I come up with some good ideas at times.
Its not like I want anyone to see me naked right now. Not pretty. :grumble:0 -

Well, when you come visit me, you are more than welcome to sleep naked.
I thought only family was allowed to visit you in prison. :ohwell:0 -
maybe because of the skin being stretched it does become more sensitive. it becomes thinner being stretched. i know my tailbone has been hurting when i sit down wrong, or for long periods of time. just a thought.

I kind of actually don't mind him working nights..:laugh: I get that king sized bed allllllll to myself:bigsmile: :drinker: And on his days off, YUP I keep an extra blanket folded up on the chest and the end of the bed...:laugh: We're both blanket hogs. I'm just glad we finally got the king size....I remember on the queen size, waking up, with one leg off the bed bent at the knee with foot on floor for support and his arm across my face with the dog (110lb. rottweiler) laying across (on top) of our feet (well the one that was still on the bed):noway: :laugh: So now at least there's plenty of room. It's just the blanket thing...:grumble: :laugh: But yeah, I roll up like a burrito when I'm there by myself. But when we're both home.......IT'S BLANKET WAR!!!...He usually wins. So I keep an extra one at the foot of the bed. :laugh:0 -
Yes. You're bunking with me, Cousin.
You won't hog the blankets like Kellch's hubby will you?0 -

Well fat is padding. I find that I can't sit long on a hard chair. My butt just gets too sore.
Also fat is insulation. I'm often cold and that's never been the case before.0 -
I have the same problem with trying to get to sleep....glad I'm not alone! Every time I roll over I feel something jabbing and then I realize it is the feel of my hip bone digging in the mattress. My pj's get on my last nerve right now and I cannot stand when the covers wrinkle up. Maybe there was a bonus to the extra cushioning I used to have. :laugh: !0
