Lol! I wear the most hideous clothes to bed. My father-in-law gave us a big stack of some men's XL shirts a couple of years ago. So, that's what I wear with yoga pants. Whatever I wear absolutely can have ZERO itch factor, or it will bring out the eczema in me. I'd love to get a cotton nightgown, but I'm too frugal right now. I'm sure my DH would love to see me in anything but his dad's giant shirts! haha

Funny story...I used to have one of those monstrous sleep shirts in hot pink. One time when me and the DH were dating, he came over to bring me something and I had it on. He said, "Oh! It's so...so...BIG." I never wore that sucker again! LOL

What an interesting topic! For 43 years I wore full length nightgown, underwear, and a sleep bra to bed. Then I married hubby and he managed to convince me to sleep nude, as he did. It's been 13 years and now I can't stand to wear anything to bed. {laughing} When we visit mom and stay with her, I wear a nightgown and it drives me nuts, all tangled up in my legs {laughing}.

Good to know about the ambulance refusing to treat nude people. I'm not sure why that would be. I've heard of them cutting clothes off people to treat injuries. Wonder what their hang-up is on nude people {laughing}.

REFUSAL to treat someone because of the lack of clothing, I thought that was an insane rule, so I called my local firestation and asked the emt/paramedics about that, they said they have NEVER heard of that, and they would NEVER do that, they have to cut clothes off all the time...anyway, they also said it must be volunteers, who have some kind of very weird/odd rules...

Well, we live in an old farm house.
In the dead of winter, it's pretty cold in here.
Typically, flannel pj's.
It's not uncommon to see the kids watching TV, in flannels, wrapped up in afghans, wearing crocheted wrist warmers and slippers (including the men), and crocheted hats - ha ha ha ha!

Tina I know that people have to often have clothes cut off, that is what was crazy to me about it too. But, it happened here in Kansas to my neighbors. And then to me in NYC. Neither of the times was it "volunteers" as it was ambulances, refusing to put us in ambulances naked. It was shocking to me both times. However, I would still beware to others, cause I wouldn't want that to happen to others. Especially the way my neighbors were, they had severe smoke inhalation, and were hospitalized for a very long time. Yet, no treatment on the ambulance till my mom put clothes on them. It was strange for sure! Again both times I know for sure it was not volunteers.

I also wanted to add, I think fireman are a little nicer. So the fireman may treat you. I would though call your local ambulance services and double check with them. They are the transporters.

Heather, here where I live, we are treated and transported by the Paramedics/EMTs/firemen, so that rule of no clothes, no transport is really weird, and I would think that if the delay causes further medical problems or death, they would be getting sued also. Please don't get me wrong, I was not saying you were wrong, it just blew me away...I hope those rules get changed and no one suffers until then...

depends on the weather...but now I am wearing sweat pants and a sweat shirt with a t-shirt underneath, and socks with my house crocs(kmart brand). In the spring and summer I wear cotton draw string shorts and a wife beater...We only have 2 window air units. So it gets a little warm...

Depends on whether the Mister is home or at his mother's house. If he's gone--flannel pjs in winter, old cotton nightshirt in summer. If he's home, satin pjs year-round. In winter, I usually have to wrap my shawl over them before bed/when I get out of bed!

Nite gowns , Long ones in winter , shorter ones to knee in summer time. Can't stand anything against my legs when I am sleeping. My room as cold as my husband can stand it. Menopause crazy nite sweats get me every time. Some times I stripp during the nite if I get to hot. T-shirts and undies would be fine with me but I have boys so nite gowns it is.

Looks like we have 4 groups, covered from head to foot with wool or flannel; nude; nighties; and last the shorts and t-shirt variety. I fall in the latter. I sometimes think I should get some real night wear but the shorts and T's are so darn comfy. And like a lot of you they are the stained, holey ones that I wouldn't think of wearing in public.

Good boy Hobbs! I love and miss you.

I'm with all you au naturel gals! Nothing to get tangled up in. And like lots of you, I learned this habit from my dh! Funny how they can influence us like that ...
