I wear clean bottoms every night but am less fussy about the top, usually what ever is to hand. Mine would smell a bit mingy if I didn't.

pklme you wear socks and pants under your pyjamas in bed?

Every other day I change my nightie. Recently reduced from everyday as I'm trying to cut down the washing pile a bit. Can't go longer as Im a sweaty sleeper.

Pyjama trousers can last a week per pair but I don't sleep in those.

YelloDraw · 08/12/2016 22:00

Weekly. But I shower before putting them on.

YelloDraw · 08/12/2016 22:00

No pants. No socks.

liz70 · 08/12/2016 22:01

Fresh top and bottoms every night, with pants and cloth liner worn beneath.

user1471439240 · 08/12/2016 22:04

I get showered before and after bed, saves worrying about smelly stuff, takes 2mins, saves bed changes, leaves time for life.

Millie2013 · 08/12/2016 22:06

Every few days, have never given it much thought, but I change them on "clean bedding" nights, irrespective :)

GladAllOver · 08/12/2016 22:07

Never. Hop straight from shower into bed.

littlesallyracket · 08/12/2016 22:09

About once a week but I don't wear them in bed, just for relaxing in the evenings.

ChickenVindaloo2 · 08/12/2016 22:12

Usual - you are a slattern. I change mine every 45 minutes during the night. Every 15 minutes in summer. I don't need an alarm as I simply couldn't sleep in soiled pajamas. I shower evening and morning as well. In bleach.

In reality - every 3rd night. Or more often if I spill something on them or I change the sheets.

Or if I've had a PJ day (and not showered), I'll put them in the wash as soon as I take them off, probably the next morning.

And in summer, I wear nighties and prob only wear them twice before washing.

I put my PJs etc on as soon as I get home.

Everyday... damn you menopausal night sweats

SarfEast1cated · 08/12/2016 22:14

usual Grin you slattern - I change mine e every half an hour

ThePinkOcelot · 08/12/2016 22:15

Every night. I don't wear anything underneath though, so feel I have to.

SarfEast1cated · 08/12/2016 22:17

PlanIsNoPlan · 08/12/2016 22:18

When I feel like it - tops, bottoms or both - PJs are god-given clothing.

Catsize · 08/12/2016 22:21

Change them? I've been wearing them 24/7 since July 1986.

purpleleotard · 08/12/2016 22:22

pyjamas are for keeping under the pillow in case of fire.

Biffsboys · 08/12/2016 22:24

Every day and I don't sleep with them on .

AndShesGone · 08/12/2016 22:24

Every single day.

Really surprised anyone would put a dirty pair on Confused. I sweat most and shed the most skin at night.

PinkiePiesCupcakes · 08/12/2016 22:24

When they can stand on their own, or I have to catch them before I put them on, definitely before they develop intelligence.

Judydreamsofhorses · 08/12/2016 22:25

During the week twice, but a fresh pair on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I don't sleep in them though, they are just for lounging about.

TheFairyCaravan · 08/12/2016 22:27

Every night.

FlappysMammyAndPopeInExile · 08/12/2016 22:29

Once a week, unless I've had a sweaty night, in which case I might change them during the night and again the next morning.

Ditsy4 · 08/12/2016 22:29

Two or three times a week.

CremeEggThief · 08/12/2016 22:30

Between every 2 and 4 days. I usually try to get one more wear out of them even when the crotch smells enough to make me wrinkle my nose!Grin I have enough clothes to wear something different every day for at least 3 weeks without having to do any washing, but I can't bear not to get at least 2 or 3 wears out of everything, except knickers and socks. Even when DS was 2 or 3, I would be cross if he couldn't get more than one wear out an outfit. I went through lots of baby wipes, spot cleaning.
