I have this issue often. I know if I scratch, it will wake me up and take longer to sleep because of my body movement. If I don't scratch, my mind only focuses on the itch. Sometimes I'll wait 5 minutes for the scratch to go away and then I just cave and start scratching any minor itch I have on my body. Has anyone just not moved and let the itch subside or does everyone scratch?

100% best sheets I’ve ever owned, 1,000 TC 100% Egyptian cotton sheets. That is like being cuddled by the softest, smoothest clouds ever. Stupid expensive (I have a king sized mattress) so they usually run a couple hundred dollars. However, they last a really long time, and get softer with age/washing.

One set has lasted me about 10 years of weekly washing. Only reason I had to buy another set this year, was because I’d torn all the corners of the fitted sheets over time. Tbf I do wrestle them on there quite roughly as I can’t squeeze in on one side of my bed that’s up against the wall… so I’m definitely not gentle..
