Just that. How often do you change them?

@Blackboot that really made me laugh!!

CommunistLegoBloc · 12/01/2019 21:37

Every six and a half minutes if the moon is waxing gibbous.

If it’s waning then all bets are off.

ButtMuncher · 12/01/2019 21:39

Every other day/ third day but I don't sleep in them either.

ReaganSomerset · 12/01/2019 21:50

Whenever the mood takes me. Can't wear them without knickers though- I shuffle around a lot in my sleep and they end up forming a pyjama thong.

@potatoscone I know what you mean. If I wore them sans knickers and then left them for a day, they'd become... crusty. Envy < not envy

Twice a week

PurpleCrowbar · 12/01/2019 22:31

Every day.

I come home, go for a run or swim, have a shower & into pyjamas.

So by the next day they've been on for a good 12 hours. Straight into the wash they go.

No pants if it makes a difference!

& usually it's pj trousers plus an elderly band tshirt. Just knickers & the tshirt if warm enough.

madeyemoodysmum · 12/01/2019 22:33

Every 2/3 days If I’m very sweaty in summer then every day but summer is a light vest and knicks and winter long bottoms and a vest top.

Sparrowlegs248 · 12/01/2019 22:33

Weekly. But I just sleep in them. I don't lounge around the house, cook, clean or go to the shop in them.

Pootle40 · 12/01/2019 22:44

Every 3-4 days. Why on earth would anyone change pjs every single day?!

cushionfiend · 12/01/2019 22:47

Blackboot that made me really really laugh a lot Smile

sweetkitty · 12/01/2019 22:48

Between everyday and every second day. As I’m always freezing I always wear pants and a tshirt PJ top tucked into my bottoms then my fleecy PJs, socks and two duvets.

TheDogAteMySock · 12/01/2019 22:48

Blackboot such a marvelous mental image Grin

TheDogAteMySock · 12/01/2019 22:50

Blackboot actually I envisage you changing faster and faster as the night wears on, until your arms are a blur and the pile of 'used' pyjamas is mountainous.

Mummylife2018 · 12/01/2019 22:53

I have Hyperhydrosis (is not 24/7) so it has to be at least every two days if not every day. Basically whenever I get a sweat attack then whatever I'm wearing gets changed. The rest of the time is every two days

Mummylife2018 · 12/01/2019 22:55

@Angelinthenight That's excessive if you're not sweating and is encouraging your children to be obsessive and OTT about cleanliness. There's a balance to everything.

No wonder our planet is in the state it's in 🙄

Janus · 12/01/2019 22:58

Do you all sleep in pjs then??? My pjs consist of slouchy pjs bottoms and a vest top, I just sleep in the vest top and change this every day. I couldn’t sleep in the bottoms though and thought no one else did??!! So it’s just a vest top and pants for me, is that weird? Don’t you all get really hot?

Bumblebee39 · 12/01/2019 23:01

Clean clothes daily, clean night clothes nightly

I used to leave it 2 nights but seeing as how I actually have more night clothes than day clothes and it's nice to feel clean- why not every night?

I wear clean underwear twice in 24 hours too and although I shower every morning I often have a bath of a night too

ginghamstarfish · 12/01/2019 23:03

Love PJ's for lounging around in but have never been able to sleep in them! Prefer a nightie.

Christmasfairy07 · 12/01/2019 23:04

I sleep naked. I do have pjs but only wear them occasionally & never in bed

Strawbberrypineapple · 12/01/2019 23:05

I do as Marilyn Monroe did- naked except for a little Chanel no.5......Wink

simbobs · 12/01/2019 23:08

Every other day, or daily if the machine load that day is not too full. OP needs to come back and say how often they change theirs.

amiw · 12/01/2019 23:11

Three sets. Once a month each. Do not sleep in them.

louise5754 · 12/01/2019 23:13

Every night but only because I don't wear nickers in bed so they feel dirty

slippermaiden · 12/01/2019 23:13

I wear pyjama trousers in the evening after a shower with a nightie. When I go to bed I take the trousers off but keep the nightie on. Probably change both twice a week. I love some of the comments on here.... some people aren't taking it too seriously Wink

HeronLanyon · 12/01/2019 23:18

gurlundercover - you wait until 3am? Honestly? Yabvd. Grin
