Obviously this doesn't prevent leg aches/cramp etc, but my all time favourite from the medicine cabinet helps when cramp or leg aches strike...vics vaporub. I love it. I rub it on my hands and inhale it for headaches and I use it on feet and legs for muscle aches xx

Ohhh yes StellaJane, I've got a small one in one of the kitchen drawers.
I'm going to try that, then shove it out in the middle of the night when it's cold.
My feet are always cold, I don't like wearing socks in bed, in fact , I'm going now to get it
And try it. My toes are freezing......lol 👣

Agathac, I know rubbing vicks vabour rub into your feet and wearing socks over the top, when in bed, stops a cough, well, supposed to. People use it on they're kids feet when they've got colds n coughs. 👣👣

Oh blimey, should have told CLKD about that, she's had a cough for a while now.......lol 🙀

I had a friend at primary school whose Mum used Vicks on her regularly. So long since I lost touch with her but I still think of her when I smell it.

Mmmm, it's so nice isn't it..?
You can buy a candle too now, I was looking at it in savers.
Only trouble is, I'd probably set the bloody bedroom on fire. 🔥 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
So I had to think twice, and thought best not to buy it...😹

I agree with the wooden floor.
I usually walk around with flip flops on, but I'm so fed up with the cramp
in my toes!
So, I've took to wearing a pair of fluffy slippers, which seem to help, until I get into bed,
then the cold sets in, and cramp again. 😪
I used the water bottle idea last night, I nipped down outa bed, and filled it from the kettle,
but stupid me, made the water too hot and I couldn't put my feet on it in bed! 🙀🙀
So I went to sleep with my feet just by it, I could feel the warmth radiating off it, it was lovely. And off to sleep I went, until early hours and the bloody thing got chucked out on the floor. Lol .It goes quite cold in our bedroom because I turn the heating off in there about 8.30pm and there's wooden floors in the bedrooms, so my feet get really cold. Plus, I leave the window open all night, so a hot water bottle was lovely. 👍🏻

And no Jaypo, my OH goes mad if I touch him with my freezing feet, he hates it, but then he's always moaning about how cold the bedroom is when he goes to bed, he says ‘it's like the artic in here.' ❄️
Lol. But I hate a hot stuffy bedroom, and he soon gets warm with the duvet over him......well, when he's stopped shivering........lol  😹😹😹

Yep, I forgot about the fan, it's on every night, and I don't need it on now,
I don't have hot flushes, lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's just that I'm used to the noise of it, can't sleep if it's not on.

I know, I know, I'm a weirdo!  😂🤪🤪🤪

To keep feet warm one should begin at the thigh area.  Trouble is, we sleep naked  ::).  DH tells me that my feet aren't cold even when they feel it.  Apparently I scuttled down the bed in the night and took the covers with me  :D.  I was cold all over even with the lleccy blanket on  ::) and curled up. Must have gone deep as the night went on  ;D

You sleep completely naked CLKD?

I couldn't. I'm scared something might crawl up my bum, (or somewhere else,)
when I'm asleep, it's bad enough sleeping in just my knickers and a little cami top,
as soon as I get a tickle, I'm down the bed looking to see if there's anything there lurking, in the dark, waiting to jump on me.......😂🤣😂🤣

Omg,Jill you do make me laugh, I remember bolting upright at about 4am coz I thought something touched my leg,the duvet being shaken out to within an inch of it's feathery life,scanning every inch of the bedroom & all the while my husband just lying there starkers,saying,are we done?probably his mega hairy leg touched me 😂
Cripes,can things crawl up your bum? 3 pairs of knickers on tonight then
