Do you wear knickers under your pjs?

Just that really!
Clean pair or the ones you've had on that day? And how often do you change your pjs?
My sister thinks I am very odd for not wearing knickers under my pjs but I think bits need airing!

No knickers under pjs unless on my period. What’s the point in creating extra washing?

Motherof3feminists · 23/05/2019 20:50

Knickers as I don't want moist pjs. I wear clean pjs every night though although I'm trying to wear them for two nights as the washing machine is rarely off.
If I was in a relationship I'd shower before bed and put clean everything on.
I feel exposed without knickers on and like something between my legs in bed as it were so have to have pjs on.

Ex's new gf insists our children put fresh knickers on each night. This is a woman who doesn't believe in washing bedding or even having covers on pillows and duvets unless the children insist Hmm

I only wear pants with skirts or dresses

You go commando under jeans, trousers, shorts? You must have a suit load of laundry. And I'm not going to comment on lack of sensitivity where the seams rub,,,,😱

AlexaAmbidextra · 23/05/2019 20:58

Nope - pjs for lounging around the house in the evening with no underwear then I take everything off before bed.

Same here. I can’t bear having nightclothes wrapped around me in bed.

TheFormidableMrsC · 23/05/2019 20:58

I vary. I wear knickers if I need to double up on sanpro for bed. Otherwise, no. I don't wear PJ's more than once either. Sometimes I'll wear knickers and nothing else. Largely though, I prefer to be knicker free in the evening. I don't wear nighties. I'd probably wear knickers if I did though in case I had to escape the house in an emergency...I'd hate to find myself knickerless in that case Smile

Bubblebubble123 · 23/05/2019 21:00

Oh god I couldn’t sleep without my knickers on. I’d feel all exposed if I didn’t have any on. I didn’t realize anyone slept with no knickers. I’m intrigued!!

greenelephantscarf · 23/05/2019 21:01

clean knickers under pjs
never had thrush ever

IcedPurple · 23/05/2019 21:01

Clean pair of knickers each night. I have a special set of 'night knickers' that are kept for the purpose as they're past their prime and due to be chucked quite soon.

If I didn't wear knickers, I'd have to wash my PJs a lot more often than the 4 or 5 days that's the norm for me.

yabadabadontdoit · 23/05/2019 21:02

Naked except during period when I wear knickers. Any clothes in bed really annoy me in the night, always seem to twist round me. Oh I wear a hair bobble though, so hair doesn’t twist round me

lucysmam · 23/05/2019 21:02

Nope.

And change them every other night or so.

ArgyMargy · 23/05/2019 21:03

Of course not. Literally nobody does this.

TheFormidableMrsC · 23/05/2019 21:03

Actually I remember staying at my Aunt's one night as a child and she was horrified I wore knickers in bed! I remember being surprised because my Mum insisted I wore them. Everybody's different with their habits. My 8 year old DS prefer to be naked.

SecretNutellaFix · 23/05/2019 21:03

Yes, I do. I don't like waking up with seams digging in where they have no right to be.

EdWinchester · 23/05/2019 21:03

So much night time clothing! We both sleep naked.

bebeboeuf · 23/05/2019 21:04

Mother always taught me that a nightly airing was good for my health

lucymegan · 23/05/2019 21:05

Cleans pjs every night and no knickers.

LemonScentedStickyBat · 23/05/2019 21:05

Huge clean comfy pants under pyjamas. Lovely. Never had any problems with thrush or anything else and have never understood what kind of ‘airing’ can possibly occur when you are wearing pyjama bottoms anyway.

steff13 · 23/05/2019 21:06

Nope - pjs for lounging around the house in the evening with no underwear then I take everything off before bed. If it's my time of the month I'll keep underwear on, sometimes pj bottoms on if it's the first day.

Same

Pepvixen · 23/05/2019 21:06

My mum always sent us to bed with no knickers (for the 'airing'), but from teenage years on I've worn them under pjs.

Lozz22 · 23/05/2019 21:08

Only time I wear knickers in bed is during my period. Oh and the exception of this week because I'm on holiday and sharing a room with my Mum. I did start off wearing pjs but it's so hot and I was starting to get pissed off with sweltering like mad and feeling as though I was getting tangled up amongst my pj bottoms and the sheets so I've ended up in pj top and knickers instead. To be fair though I was on my period for the first 5 days of the holiday. At home I sleep naked and usually when stopping in hotel rooms by myself I also sleep naked too. There's always a bed sheet to throw round in case of a fire alarm going off

Listlover · 23/05/2019 21:12

I wear nickers and nothing else.

wonkylegs · 23/05/2019 21:12

Knickers on here but each to their own
In summer it's often just the knickers but that's just what makes me comfortable.

maddiemookins16mum · 23/05/2019 21:14

I only wear my pj top. Only wear knickers when Aunty Ruby is staying for the week.

maddieharrison · 23/05/2019 21:16

I didn't but i do now since i gave birth. I don't have as much control as i did before... i'm hoping that will pass though.

ChihuahuaMummy1 · 23/05/2019 21:17

@Bluntness I know it seems unusual I dont tell people in real life coz they'd think it weird
