I have a friend who does it every other day! This seems wayyyyy too much for me, once a week is the maximum as far as I'm concerned (unless it's children's sheets and there's been accidents obviously) and more frequently it ends up being once a fortnight Blush

So people of mumsnet, how long do you leave it?

Duvet cover fortnightly.

I have had (male) housemates who never changed them. Literally never Envy (not envy)

Fortnightly here.

Once a week. I love a clean bed - but not enough to change it more than once a week.

Nanalisa60 · 01/09/2020 09:07

Every Sunday all the bedding, Six pillow cases, duvet cover, and fitted sheet. On Wednesday I change the two pillow cases we sleep on all night and the fitted sheet.

This. I love that fresh bed feeling on Saturday mornings.
Skibideebapbapbap · 01/09/2020 09:08

Weekly on a Friday or Saturday

KarlKennedysDurianFruit · 01/09/2020 09:10

Once a week is the plan but sometimes get to about ten days, we wear pyjamas, I think if you sleep naked it should probably be more often

Frazzled13 · 01/09/2020 09:12

Varies from once a week to once a fortnight.

Redcrayons · 01/09/2020 09:14

weekly on sundays.

I love new sheets as much as the next person, but who can be bothered with every other day? Nobody’s got time for that.

This!
starfishmummy · 01/09/2020 09:15

About once a year. Maybe longer if they're not dirty.

Anydreamwilldo12 · 01/09/2020 09:20

Whenever I think to do it. Sometimes once a week sometimes every 3 weeks. Couldn't be arsed HAVING to do the bedding every Sunday/friday or whatever. It's usually weather depending.

BubblyBarbara · 01/09/2020 09:21

Whenever I change the whole bed so monthly if I’m being good

MatildaTheCat · 01/09/2020 09:24

My cleaner does it weekly for me. I wash and iron it all. I adore freshly ironed bedding.

Pinkyandthebrainz · 01/09/2020 09:25

Weekly. In summer if very hot, every 4/5 nights

mum2jakie · 01/09/2020 09:26

@Namechangr9000

Same here - less often than this thread pops up! I'm doing the laundry today as it happens 😂
