Now I lay me down to sleep. What do you like to wear?


Guest

Who me? Well kids here is your bedtime story. When I was a young CD, with my spouse gone for the weekends, I would enjoy my slinky negligee.

Later living alone with my kids after the divorce of my second ex. I was transitioning nicely, so I treated myself to a long elegant nightgown mail ordered from Carol Wright Gifts. I looked wonderful in it, but is was so darn slippery in bed. Sort of like trying to snooze on the highly waxed hood of a car. Giggle. I think it is still in a box in storage as a keepsake.

These nights I now love my pink cotton night shirts. One is big and blousy, just at the knee. One is plenty short with cute cartoon type print, careful when you bend over Jody! And my favorite I have on as I write this, my pretty plain pink, just above the knee, gathered yoke type bustline that plunges a little. It's so comfy, my room mate always liked it on me as she said it flattered my curvey shape. Woo woo!

Now it's your turn to satisfy my curiosity. What do you like to wear to sleep? Hold the pictures please, no I won't give 8X10 autographed glossies. Even the guys can chime in here too, so what if you like your birthday suits?!? Snicker. Hug. JodyAnn

Nite,nite...Zzzzzzz...

For me it all depends on what kind of mood I am in that night. Some nights I sleep completely nude. Others a pair of panties. Others a nightgown. And at times my comfy PJs. With me, ya just never know what I'll be sleeping in. Most of the time even I don't know, until I'm actually getting in bed.

Seasons certainly play a role here. I'm presently wearing mid calf cotton nighties and socks as the temps drop. I've got a red, pink and green. They are so cozy when it's chilly.

In the summer i wear panties and a T.

Hugs,

My hubbies t-shirts make the best un-restrictive sleep wear. I usually combo that with a pair of pajama bottoms or pajama shorts. in the summer tank tops and pajama shorts tend to be my go to. I have never had much of a preference in sleep wear generally what ever is handy.

I can't seem to do pajama pants, so it's usually a tank top and pajama shorts. I don't like anything too restrictive when I'm sleeping. Something cute, comfy and cotton. :thumbsup:

Sung --

"I wear my pink pajamas in the summer when its hot!

I wear my woolen undies in the winter when its not

And sometimes in the spring time, and sometimes in the fall

I crawl between the sheets with nothing on at all!!

For me a loose cotton nightgown. No buttons, short sleeves in the warm months, long sleeves in the winter. Pajamas for lounging OK for the evening. Many years ago when the ups and downs of my journey were common to my true self I would purge my female cloths time to time, but never my nightgowns Smile's...Sarah

What a great crowd for a party. We can all sing Vicky's song. Watch out and don't spill any milk in my bed. Watch the cookie crumbs as well. Oh no i'll never get any sleep. "Your boyfriend did what?" "Oh my, naughty boy"

Hugs,

In the summer it is usually a cami top and panties. For the winter it is a cheap cami dress which makes a brilliant nightdress. I have three of them in different colours. If it gets really cold I have fleecy pyjamas.

(Back in male only days it was birthday suit :) )

During the winter I wear some night gowns. My wife gave me a nice blue gown as a Christmas present.

In the summer I don't wear anything.

usually I just sleep in underwear, since where i'm from the weather is really hot, but if I had the choice I would probably choose some silky pajamas.

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      Go Cleveland Guardians!  I love baseball and I loved playing it when I was younger.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

    • Ashley0616
      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
