Question:
I have my sleep study tonight....What do I wear?

Should I sleep in my zipped up robe or should I wear sweats? Who would have thought I would have such a dilima with this...Thanks!    — TRACEY W. (posted on March 15, 2003)

Tracey, I would wear what is comfortable. I wore my regular PJ's. What I would do though is take your own pillows. I did and it helped my comfort level more that anything I could have worn.

Hi, I just wore my regular PJ's. You want to make yourself as comfortable as you would be at home.

When I've done sleep studies, they have always attached wires to my legs. It's easier for them to do that if you have short legged bottoms on. Regular pj's are fine, but so are shorts and a t-shirt. I have worn a one-piece short-legged, short-sleeved body suit, the kind you would wear to work out in. One technician wasn't happy with that because I had to take the wire and put it down through the body suit and out the leg opening, but it was comfortable to sleep in.

I wore regular pj's, which were shorts and a shirt. I usually sleep with a fan on at night to cover my husband's snoring. I asked them if they had a fan, and they did, so they turned that on for me. If you use something to help you sleep, you may want to bring it with you. Also, I was always really cold during both times I went, so you might want to make sure to get an extra blanket from them. My experience was like staying in a hotel room.
