Dare I....

Kateykrunch. from one E45 user to another, just consider that you are hot stuff. to go to bed with.

Do you use a mattress protector? Cheap and easily removed and washed. I use Flannelette sheets on our beds in the winter, nice and cozy.
They were talking about these type of creams yesterday on the radio, how people don't realise nighties/pj's can be more flammable if people use them.

Decided, too risky!, so going to get a teddy fleecy type bottom sheet, but bet it gets too warm, I’m never satisfied, too warm, too cold........

Concerns about the flammability of these creams has been known for some time.

Could you have an electric over blanket rather than an under blanket. Put it on top of the duvet so that the duvet warms up and that warms you when you get into bed.

Ooooo! I sympathize Katey, having to layer on E45 every night.
I know we're supposed to moisturize after a shower/bath but I just can't bear the feeling of it when I get between the bed clothes.
I sleep naked and like to slide around the bed. ?

I have to admit I had never heard of this problem. This is the link to some information which although it is in the Daily Mail has been issued by the MHRA.

Well I lied, its the mattress topper and is always turned frequently so it will have it both sides. Hubby says we just buy another topper, I suppose he is right, but I still have to use the dreaded cream x

Turn the mattress
