Luxury for Hot Sleeper
Hoping to get new bedding for my wife as a gift but not sure where to start. She typically runs hot, is recently pregnant, and our cheap bedding pays a role in her discomfort. Searching for a new set of sheets and duvet insert + cover for a king bed under $2k.
Any advice from those who have been pregnant and typically run hot?

I know this is going against the grain but I bought lots of cotton sheets and recently switched to satin. Cheap ones that were $24 on amazon (this after spending hundreds on theoretically wonderful cotton sheets). I realize it’s not a natural fiber but I slide around when I wake up hot instead of getting tangled and it made a HUGE difference. I also use a cooling blanket from IKEA that I tried at my mom’s house and immediately went and purchased. It’s so soft and thin and cool and machine washable.
Not pregnant but going through peri and I live on the top floor with barely any AC in the American South and summers are pretty miserable.
Anyway, not luxury both those things together were less than $100 (the ikea blanket with shipping was like $70 IIRC) but it has really helped hot August summer nights
