Doesn't feel the cold/always hot

NAS78463

My daughter, almost 6 has never slept well, probably slept through the night about 5 times in her life! She wakes up at 1am, 3am etc and when asked about this she says she gets hot and wakes up. I've already turned all radiators off in her room, she likes window open to go to sleep however cold. If I don't do this she struggles to get to sleep....anyone else have this? Also, she never wants to wear a coat, hat, gloves etc and has to have a thin coat even in winter.....anyone else have this or know why? Thanks

  • I'm the opposite- always seem to be colder than others and it hurts my hands sometimes just taking sonething out of the fridge!

    It's all a part of sensory issues.  Interception is the sense of knowing how things feel in your body, hot and cold, hungry or thirsty, even needing the loo.  Our mental wiring processes the sensory signals in different ways so that when one feels warm, another feels extra hot.
