Should I turn up the heat?

The other day I noticed Lizzy was wearing two pairs of pajama pants to bed.  “Are you that cold?”  I queried.  She was.  I added another blanket two days ago, and another tonight.  So that child is wearing two pairs of pajama pants, socks, a long-sleeved top and a fleece to bed; and sleeps under six blankets.

I just added a second blanket to my bed yesterday.

Well: 1. Do you have the heat on? 2. Does she sleep under a drafty window? 3. Does she wear a coat to school and is it fastened? 4. Does she have low thyroid? 5. Did she complain?

I'd check the thyroid my self, sounds like hers is turned down. Six blankets? She is squashed.

1. yes but not super high. 2. two of them, over the garage. 3. fleece 4. ?? 5. Yes, after I asked her.

Lizzy has always felt the cold. I send her to school in the winter in snow pants even when it's not snowy. Last year her teacher told her to stop wearing them.

We live in Florida but my youngest daughter is always cold. Maybe it's because she lives with a family of polar bears who keep the air conditioning at arctic levels. She walks around the house wearing her winter coat when it is 497F degrees outside.

Sounds like my mom. She wears a sweater year round because my dad keeps the house frigid.
