changing your bed - how often do you do it?

Ok, so I thought my usual fortnightly change of bedlinen was about normal and what most other people would do. I've done it more often if weather's been particular hot or if sheets are gross-tastic from one too many wet patches. But usually, fortnightly.

Then.....getting into Flylady for the first time this week, I see that weekly bedlinen changes are what I should be doing. Kim and Aggie say this too.

Am I being minging to only want to do it once a fortnight????

Once a week.

I would like to change the sheet twice a week but enough washing already.

No way would I leave it more than 8 days.

Yuck.

The kids are done weekly too plus extra if accidents have happened.

once a week, more often if dc's have a cold or if very very hot

Weekly here but DC's fortnightly on the basis that they have a bath before they get in, wear PJ's and don't do any, ahem, activity!! Obviously more when they are ill.

I would do ours more often but I have to iron the sheets and I can't face doing a superkingsize duvet more that once a week

Once a fortnight, if I remember

once a week on a friday so they are nice and fresh and clean for the weekend!

georgimama · 24/08/2008 21:57

every week. I'd love to have clean sheets every day, would be like living in a hotel.

Fortnightly.

You are normal, dont worry.

undercovercat · 26/08/2008 23:15

Rarely

OriginalUglyBetty · 27/08/2008 18:42

Every Sunday

DanJARMouse · 27/08/2008 18:44

depends, can be weekly, can be fortnightly.

Depends on the weather, and how gross they are.

Kids get done at the same time as ours.

Minimum of once a week. Towels twice a week.
