how can i make my bed warmer?

how frustrating! here's some ideas to help:

use flannel sheets; put a blanket under your bottom sheet in addition to your quilts on top; get a microwaveable heat pack and tuck it under the covers with you; wear warm socks to bed, and long sleeves and sweatpants. you can also try an electric blanket, but be sure to read the safety warnings if you do.

I have some good suggestions which I know work well because I live in an RV in Washington state whose main furnace doesn't work anymore! All I have is a space heater. But for the bed I have four comforters on top (found them at Goodwill, perfectly clean and comfy) and on the mattress I have a goose-down body pillow. You can order them in the same as bed sizes, then when you sleep on them you kind of sink in and are surrounded by warm, comfy feathers. Anything with down/feathers works very well to trap heat. I also have an electric blanket between me and the comforters. It took me a while to perfect the "How Not to Die of Hypothermia in Your Sleep" technique, but I think it's the down that does it!

Try using some flannel bed sheets. An electric blanket might help too! Sometimes using a sleeping bag on really cold nights helped me to stay warm.

About 5-10 before going to bed, place a water bottle or two under the blankets. Its nice and warm for winter, or you can buy an electric blanket.

Try an electric blanket or an electric mattress cover. If you want to go cheap (as is a necessity for most college students) - think old fashioned. Buy a hot water bottle, fill it up with hot water each night, and stick it under the covers with you.

3 things i do (same prob but my own house..) flannel sheets, down comforter with flannel duve(cover for comforter) and like 30 before i get into bed i have one of those heating pads that you would use for like back achs or anything put one of those in your bed cover it up with your comforter and by the time you wash your face brush you teeth and get ready for bed it is sooo nice and warm and once the bed is all warm and you get in the down comforter will do enough the rest of the night so it is safer to turn off the heating pad and remove it before you fall asleep

A down comforter is extremely warm and so comfy to curl up in unless you have allergies. If you have access to a wall outlet close to your bed, you could use a heating pad or heated throw.

Try buying one of those foam mattress pads..the foam will make it very warm under you to sleep on plus as others said then cover in flannel..

Okay, the easyest way to make your bed warmer is to rub it a little bit before you get in. I know it sounds crazy but it works.

I would say an electric mattress pad. Way cozy! Here is a description for you but you'd have to check your local Wal-Mart.
