How often do you change your bedsheets?

[Blackbootswithredribbons]

I change my sheets every Sunday, but lately I've noticed that they still seem fresh when they're changed and maybe it's excessive.
What do you do? Would it be grim if I changed to once every two weeks?

Changed once a week (normally a Wednesday), will be twice a week during the summer though.

Well its been nearly a year since we moved house so I suppose I better get round to it.

Winter bottom sheet and pillowcases once a week duvet cover once a fortnight
Summer everything off the bed once a week
pillows admittedly not very often in winter as cant get them dry no tumble dryer in summer when they dry once a fortnight

Never as we have a penis beaker and a special soft sex blanket.

I don't actually know. Every 3 - 4 weeks? I am single, I wear ridiculous amounts of clothing to bed and don't get sweaty. I do change my pillowcases once a week though.

In the old days I think we (well my Mother) moved the top sheet to the bottom and you got a clean top sheet. I think this was a weekly process.

Since joining Mumsnet, I've learned to change them every 15 minutes throughout the night.

🤣🤣🤣

When they start smelling.

Weekly, I like them to smell fresh

Every Friday, but mostly because I'm trying to make sure my sons aren't revolting when they are released into the world! They change their own before school.

It would be every two weeks if not for that!

Once a week. But I do all the sheets in the house once a week because I wash them in their own load, not mixed with other laundry. Same with towels. If the weather is bad I will wait for a clear day because they are line dried. Six clothespins per sheet. No ironing. Then folded but not stored in their own pillowcase. I have decluttered the linen closet so each bed has two sets of sheets, if I do all of the sheets once a week on the same day it is easier to rotate the linen.

Every hour, on the hour. Anything less is grim.

Once a fortnight. We live in a flat with limited drying space and I don't like to use the tumble dryer too often (only tumble dry sheets and towels).

When the cat lets me. She sleeps on the bed.

@PollyPutTheKettleOnKettleOn I hope you heat up the copper adequately; grate some soap; add some laundry blue and use a wash board. Anything less is slovenly.

Umm when I think of it. About every 2 weeks but I admit it slips

Every year

My aim is once a fortnight but its often less than that. I'm single, I don't sweat much. I don't care that much either!

Before I was seperated/when the hidden were small it was more often , usually weekly ir more if needed. Husband was quite an oily person children spit up milk etc.

[quote PollyPutTheKettleOnKettleOn]@Blackbootswithredribbons randomly wouldn't work with my day. Wouldn't leave enough time for the hot wash on an eco friendly setting, the starching, drying in sunlight for sterilisation, the pressing, scenting and folding and then standards would slip[/quote]
This really tickled me hahaha

@MintJulia

I don't have a partner so I sleep one side of the bed in week one and then sleep the other side of the bed in week 2. So every two weeks. Cut my washing by 50% Genius

You can turn the duvet and pillow cases inside out and the fitted sheet upside down so that's 2 more weeks.

Weekly all 5 beds. Sometimes may be 8 or 9 days. Ie this week would be 8, normally do on a Tuesday but its due to rain. Weds going to be dry so ill leave till weds to save on tumble.

You could sleep in the middle on week 3, and stretch it out another week you know.

Usually when I can start feeling crusty bits on the sheet.

Every 2 weeks haha.

@lollipoprainbow

Twice a day ???

I'm sure that was a joke.

Every five to seven days.

Every 1-2 weeks but mostly on me who sleeps in it as we have a young baby y abs DH often sleeps in the spare
