So this was a great test for me and many of my fellow cotton nightie lovers and menopausal sweaty betty's...
I recently went down into my little nightie room to begin a wonderful day of handwriting your love letters and packing your special twinkling nightwear. No issues until .... yes the sweats kicked in, regardless of the fan running at cyclone speed overhead.
Low and behold I soon realised it was my little plain sleeveless loose fitting linen dress that was the trouble. I got dressed that morning thinking it was a lovely cool natural fabric frock to wear for the day of work ahead, oh how wrong I was.
Luckily with a quick flip of the linen and back into a fresh cotton nightie I noticed a huge difference, just the weight alone and instant coolness. This may sound like such a small thing however as the whole event was unfolding I was thinking "my goodness I need to tell the guys this" (you guys).
If I can offer any soothing and refreshing advice to my fellow peri-menopausal comrades get yourself a flowing cotton nightie that you can wear during the day. If you are working from home, cooking in the hot kitchen, even the dusting and mopping, trust me the flow through air nightie will change how your mood evolves!!!!
Now I make a point of telling everyone that our nighties are menopause conscious, menopause friendly or menopause must have's.
Stay cool my nightie lovers.
