How many times do you change your bedsheets?

Another thread alerted me to the fact that a few of you out there change your sheets every week. We are once a month, and thats being good. So own up, how long does it take for you to change the bedding, and am I really a dirty madam? I wonder how often Queen Anthea changes hers?

I turn my mattress every time I do the sheets. Sometimes I just rotate it, other times I actually flip it over. Flip is completely the wrong word as it weighs an absolute tonne & I have to do very complicated propping manouevres to prevent it from crushing me!!!

Once a week for ds - always the day the cleaner comes (though I do it)

Ours are supposed to be the same, but usually we end up at once a fortnight because the weather needs to be really good to dry massive sheets.

Ours is a super king size bed & has to have two peeps to turn it, never mind flip it!
I tried it on my own the first time and thought I had it balanced only for it to fall and squash me flat to the base. Dh nearly phsl until he tried to rescue me and realised the weight lol
Now it's done once a month by both of us.

Those of you who don't change so often, do you air the beds for a good hour every morning before making them.

Yup no mattress flipping when your pg ladies, best get a man in.

Sorky, I fold the duvet back twice in the mornings so just the bottom quarter of the bed doesn't get aired (out of sight out of mind )

that's what I do BoD, figuring we don't sleep at the bottom, so not as much need to air

Well, ladies, as long as you don't expect any help on a Tuesday. That's Nuts day.

Can't work out if I like or hate that ad.
