Slept with one on and I had to get up to pee like a zillion times. Took it off part way through the night and then didn’t need to go again. What the fuck

I love mine! My only problem is my bad ankle. I had a really bad sprain years ago and it’s never been the same since. I have to pull the blanket up above my foot or the ankle gets sore from it pressing down on my foot. I’ve thought about trying to rig something to keep the pressure just off my left foot so I didn’t have to have it sticking out from under the blanket, but I tend to move around when I’m sleeping, so I haven’t been able to think of anything that would work.

I’m 100% certain I would sleep better with a weighted blanket. But I simply refuse to buy one because I know that after getting used to it I would never fall asleep without it again. Would basically make me unable to travel, camp, etc.
