to ask how often you change your bedding?

[dairyleadunker]

Am i being unreasonable or just nosey to ask how often you change your bedding and dc's bedding ?

[squeakytoy]

once every six months.. whether it needs it or not

[pjmama]

Not as often as I should!

I just can't face wrestling a king size duvet into its cover.

[dairyleadunker]

Thank you squeakytoy

(phew)

thought I was the only minger around !!!

[Katey1010]

ALL THE TIME! DD is EBF and dribbles (and spits up) in bed. If I have to wash my quilt twice in a day again I will scream.

[gilbonzothesecretpsychoduck]

Once every 6 months?? Have you not thought of the environment and the harm all that frequent washing does?? I turn the sheets over and the duvet covers inside out every 6 months and wash once a year. It's a nice Christmas treat to have new sheets

[Seona1973]

I'm sure there are a couple of recent big threads about the same subject and it ranges from changing daily to several months between changes

[tulpe]

This topic was an item on the radio recently. I was absolutely gobsmacked at the percentage of people who change their sheets once a month or less (can't remember exact figure but........bleurgh!)

Once a week for us and DCs.

[WillieWaggledagger]

every week or 1.5 weeks

[freshmint]

hahaha 6 months. why change them then? surely they can't get dirtier?!!

weekly

towels twice a week

[nikki1978]

Every two weeks here. Seem ok to me! I think a few germs are good for the immune system

[dairyleadunker]

think my washer /dryer is going to explode with EBF 4 month old (who has never slept in moses basket for whole night yet) and 4yr old who has decided it takes too long to go to the toilet in the middle of the night .. and a sweaty builder dh.

Oh well I will wash less and think of the environment - have one bed smelling of sick/boob milk and sweat and the other of wee :)

[pinkthechaffinch]

every 2 weeks here too, but in summer sometimes once a week, if they're getting a bit whiffy due to Dh's sweat

[letsblowthistacostand]

I'm pretty sure my cleaner does it every week.

[pinkstinks]

Every two weeks. I do the late shift til 4am every other friday night, i have to literally put my head inside the oven to clean it etc, so come home exhausted straight to bed and wash them the next morning :)

[Snappedwife]

Twice a week at the moment

Night time sweats. yuk!

[MrsPresley]

Ideally once a fortnight but sometimes it's longer especially in the winter.

[Seona1973]

heres one www.mumsnet.com/Talk/good_housekeeping/1147081-Changing-Bedding

[duchesse]

Once a week for anyone over 14, every two weeks for younger people.

[dairyleadunker]

Thank you seona - should have just read that.

Forgive me please i am a newbie.

[lucykate]

ours, once a week, the dc's once a fortnight.

[agedknees]

Once a week in winter, twice a week in summer.

[foreverondiet]

Roughly every 2 weeks.

6 months I hope that's a joke as if not its minging.

[NinkyNonker]

Once a week on the whole, sometimes more regularly as we now have a tumble dryer!

[GreenEyesandHam]

Every Sunday, whilst listening to Something For The Weekend in the background

That's how predictable my life has become
