How long does it take to get used to sleeping with a weighted blanket?

Whether or not this is the first time you're using a weighted blanket, it's important to allow your body to adjust to the additional weight with ease. Don't rush the process! We highly recommend using the weighted blanket for shorter periods of time while your body adjust (cue cozy naps on the couch!). For night-time sleep, we recommend using the blanket over half of your body for about a week. Feel free to use your normal comforter or flat sheet during this time to keep warm! Once the week is up, you can slowly move the blanket up each day until it covers you completely. It can sometimes take up to 14 days for your body to full adjust to the new added weight. It takes roughly 14-21 days for us to form new habits, so give your body time to adjust to the weight and to the benefits. Deep sleep is on the horizon.

Should I sleep under weight if I have a pre-existing medical condition?

If you have a condition that you’re concerned about, we always recommend that you check in with a healthcare professional before trying out a weighted blanket.
