Underwear with pyjamas?

[Noluckcatchingthemswansthen]

Please help settle a debate mumsnetters - do you wear underwear (pants not bra) with pyjamas??
(yeah having a really exciting Saturday night)

For the naked sleeps, how often are you changing your covers? Even with the best hygiene that would get a bit whiffy

Yes because I get a few wears out of my pyjamas so wearing knickers means I don't have to have a fresh pair of pyjama bottoms every night.

Always wear pants. I hate the feeling of not wearing them

Another nothing at all here, hate nightwear

Always.

@waowwwwww

why would the sheets get any dirtier? We have clean bodies. I change them more in the summer than winter as we sweat more in heat

Pants and a crop top under my pjs...I prefer all my wobbly bits to be nicely contained!

Yes to knickers, no to bra. I'd feel very odd without- like trousers without pants.

Yes to knickers always I’d be too afraid of an insect crawling somewhere it shouldn’t! Fresh bedding straight from the washing line last summer and woke up in night feeling itchy and there was an earwig crawling along my feet so glad to have knickers and pjs on

I don't think anything I say will settle the debate, as there are always at least two conflicting answers to this perennial discussion. But I' ll say it anyway!

I come from a line of fervent "no knickers at night" advocates, stretching back to my grandmother, or even before her, and as a child I was expected to go commando under whatever night attire I happened to be wearing at the time, generally PJs in cold weather, nighties when it was warmer, and I finally graduated to my unadorned birthday suit around the age of10 when a heatwave triggered an almost overnight family-wide transition to naked sleeping. But that's another story!

Yes, always.

I don’t often wear pyjamas in bed, but if I do, I always wear pants

Yes, avoids a midnight wedgie

No

No but I wear clean pyjamas every night (or T-shirt and knickers if I run out.

Old wives tale.

Have you a problem with incontinence?

Yes to cotton pants with PJ bottoms or shorts.

No. You need to air.

I always got told wearing pants to get gives you thrush
I don't wear pants and I dont get thrush.
It seems many MNs DO wear pants and MNs are notorious for getting thrush.
Scientific study complete.

No, I don’t. I have a clean pair of pj’s each night.

We literally had this exact topic a few months ago

Yes, always wear underwear under PJ’s.

No, never. I find pants under PJs really uncomfortable.
