Don't do socks, but do do dh's cotton boxers. He can't wear them crumpled apparently

Not socks, but we iron DHs boxers as well as pyjamas, the baby's vests, teatowels, duvet covers... everything except bras and socks really!

(I say we but DH does 99.5% of the ironing so I blame him for being so pernickety!)

i iron dp's boxers coz he wont wear them other wise he says they are uncomfortable i used to iron baby vests and pj's too but the amount of ironing i had to do was driving me mad so i stopped that!!!

And I thought I was bad! How many are you? I've got 1 dh & 2 dc. I send out his shirts & all the sheets/duvet covers. The rest I do when I have to but I wouldn't send anyone out in crumpled clothing.

I dont iron duvets or sheets...

Dont like DP or DS to have crumpled boxers and I iron my knickers (but not lacy ones).. also iron night clothes.

Have new baby due but I havent ironed any of his things.

Please someone say they iron sock sand knickers as dp is watching this thread too and says it is cool no-one else does and it is a ridiculous thing to do (he incidentally doesnt want me to iron his boxers either). Also I am setting up ds's future wife for problems...
