Putting frozen otters in your bed may sound like a good idea, until you roll over a set of thawed-out teeth in the morning. Although, the loss of blood may cause your body to cool off. Maybe it’s not such a bad idea after all.

Wetting the bed starts out warm, but has a cooling effect in the night.

1 hour or so before bed, get a towel or two wet and wring them out. Roll up and put in freezer. Before bed take them out and put in thin plastic gargage bags that fits around it. Keep one rolled up for around your neck. Spread the other one out flat and place under your sheet on your side. You stay cool, wife can cuddle you and stay warm on her side.
Or for comical relief, stick with the otter pops and frozen veggies

Otterpops might leak and then you would be all sticky and such. Vegetables would thaw too quickly and meat might stink or bleed on your sheets. Use a gel pack (like for sore muscles) and put it in your pillow to regulate your heat. You could also put one in between you. It is reusable and functional. Another trick is to sleep at a different bed level than your wife. You could sleep on top of the sheet while she is under then a barrier is created.

maybe the best way to avoid the heat in the bed would be to send your wife on a 3 week vacation to visit her family.

As someone who is pre-menopausal and prone to night sweats, I can relate. My husband seems to have hands of fire too. I don’t think I’ll try any of your ideas as the cost of food is just too high.

You know, if it’s too hot in the bed, you could always sleep on the floor. (It’s a miracle you’re not already anyway!) I’m sure your pregnant wife wouldn’t mind. I know my bed always seems to shrink while I’m pregnant and I find myself wishing I didn’t have to share it.
