How many pyjamas to pack?

I’m going away for a 7 night holiday and just wondering how many pyjamas/ nightwear do you pack for this?

Some people on here say clean every night - do you really take 7 pairs away with you?

I would take three pairs, and change halfway through. Third pair in case I piss myself.

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 12/10/2024 17:17

I am normally a clean pair every night but I went away for 10 and took two sleep tees and one set of pjs

Doyouthinktheyknow · 12/10/2024 17:17

I would take 2 sets! I’m a slattern🤪

DelphiniumBlue · 12/10/2024 17:18

One slip style nightdress.

Procrastinates · 12/10/2024 17:20

Are you actually going to wear them to bed? If you're just going to lounge around in them in the evening/morning and not actually sleep in them then one is plenty. If you're going to wear them to sleep in then two or three tops.

I've never packed nightclothes for a holiday unless I'm camping

redtrain123 · 12/10/2024 17:26

I be would take a couple a couple of pairs, or maybe three if weather likely to be variable.

Purplecatshopaholic · 12/10/2024 17:28

Seven night holiday? I wouldn’t take any..

Ifyouhavetoask99 · 12/10/2024 17:29

Depends if you sweat profusely through the night - if not I wouldn’t bother - I take one pair and a long T-shirt which could double for the day if needed

doodleygirl · 12/10/2024 17:31

I wouldn’t take any assuming it’s a hot climate, if it’s cold probably 2 pairs

Sepoctnov · 12/10/2024 17:34

Just one extra t-shirt and small pair of shorts to sleep in. I shower every evening and don't really sweat?!

reluctantbrit · 12/10/2024 17:51

One nightdress unless I go somewhere hot and have no air con.

Chewbecca · 12/10/2024 17:52

Two. I am confident I won't piss myself 🤣

Edited to correct autocarrot!

UserNameOfShame · 12/10/2024 17:54

One.

StressedQueen · 12/10/2024 17:55

I'd just take 2 oversized tv shirts and 1 pair of sleep shorts to be honest

Youcancallmeirrelevant · 12/10/2024 17:56

1 set of PJs for a weeks holiday

Chypre · 12/10/2024 17:57

Where are you going? Maldives - you don't need any, Tyrolean Alps - get at least 2 sets. And don't forget fuzzy socks.

Moveoverdarlin · 12/10/2024 17:58

One set.

Prisonpillow · 12/10/2024 17:59

Adults - 1
kids - 3

Tadpolecat · 12/10/2024 18:04

I took 1 to our holiday last week. I don't wear them in bed. I think I wore them once!

DoublePeonies · 12/10/2024 18:06

Adults - 1
Kids - 4

OhBeAFineGuyKissMe · 12/10/2024 18:06

Interesting no one has said they will take 7 pairs, as on laundry threads there is a lot of passion about clean jammies every night.

Never considered taking a spare pair due to pissing myself, fortunately never had that problem.

I’m going on a cruise so not sure how warm the room will be but probably mid-range.

Doggymummar · 12/10/2024 18:08

I would just rake one. You can have laundry done on a cruise if you need

JustGotToKeepOnKeepingOn · 12/10/2024 18:12

I never wear pyjamas so it wouldn't occur to me to take any!

FusionChefGeoff · 12/10/2024 18:13

How many would you wear in a week at home? Sometimes if I'm packing light I re wear a t shirt as pyjamas
