How often go you wash your bedsheets?

[MonkeysAllGoWoo]

I put freshly washed line dried bedsheets on last night and it was lovely to sleep in the bed, as it always is!

I've just sat on a tube of moisturiser/tanning lotion and didn't realise (arse must be fatter than I realise) and half of it is now on my bed/shorts. I text my friend saying this just happened lol. Why is it always fresh sheets? Sort of message. I now wonder if I'm a bit of a rotter as she text back saying wouldn't you be putting fresh ones on tonight anyway?!

I change mine weekly. Usually a Friday task. Summer may change this but I don't sleep under the duvet if it's too hot so it doesn't automatically change in summer?!

And what about towels?

Once a week.

Twice a year, whether they need it or not.
I try to do it at about the same time as my six monthly shower.

Did she not mean that you would change them as you had spilt something over them?

I change mine more when it's so hot.

There is no need to be doing it daily - good grief!! My ideal is weekly but I don't always remember so it's often fortnightly

Bedding not less than weekly. Hot wash every other time that set is washed.
Bath towels used for maybe three or four days - a once weeklyish hot towel wash.

I change the bedding once a week more or less. Towels once or twice depending how much they have been used.

Towels weekly and bedding fortnightly. I hate washing.

anything between every week - 2 weeks.
to change sheets daily is bonkers and an enormous waste of water and electricity and time.

Monthly.

A little more when I have ringworm. I do find it a hassle but the ringworm kind of grosses.

I'd love to do it twice a week because sleeping in fresh sheets is delicious, however, half conscientiousness of the environment and half laziness means I do it once a week

@LightDrizzle

Every two weeks and aired daily. If needed, one of us I’ll and sweaty, more often. I hate changing double beds and I dare say that plays a part.

How do you air them? Do you mean you hang them outside?

When I was co-sleeping with the velcro baby it was often daily as she would vomit on sheets and they would get covered in breastmilk and I hate the smell of milk (not envy).
Now I have my bed back it is usually weekly unless there is a baby or cat incident that necessitates earlier.
I LOVE clean sheets but daily is just wasteful (unless they are crusted with stale milk).

You're supposed to change them?

And how do people define a "hot wash"? (I do mine at 60)

Every couple of weeks if I remember, more if it's hot or they "need doing"

Once a year - whether they need it or not!

Could your friend have meant you will be changing your shorts daily?

Every day

I love the fresh bed smell, use tons of fabric softener, scent beads and detergent and physically cannot sleep in sheets that have been slept in already.

I have recently been diagnosed with OCD though which manifests itself as (amongst many other rituals) an obsession with linens&clothes smelling clean (of detergent, beads and softener)

At least once a week, more often in this weather.

Blimey, I dread to think what that cost in water et cetera!

Twice a week, and the bottom sheet more regularly than that in ick weather like this.

My ‘hot wash’ would be 60. Has taken me some time to get there (And only for bedding and towels) as I was brought up with generally cold or slightly warm washing cycles only !

Every 2/3 weeks here! I don’t think we smell. Teens do theirs as and when.

Every 3 days.

Dh fucking stinks though. If I was on my own it would be less.
