Fairy Non Bio is sponsoring the Mumsnet Talk App and in light of this they’d like to see what you have to talk about when it comes to your household washing schedule. Do you manage to get by on just a couple of loads a week or do four a day just to keep up with your kids? Perhaps you’re lucky enough to be able to send it all away to be done for you? Do you have a set day for each kind of washing load or just shove things in as they look like they might need doing? Whatever your washing schedule, let Fairy Non Bio know by sharing in a post below.

Here’s what Fairy Non Bio has to say: “Fairy Non Bio is good for anyone who wants a softer, more sensitive wash (that still leaves clothes clean!). Its gentle formula promises to be kind to both your clothes and your skin, and so it’s suitable for the whole family, no matter how many washes you’re doing each week.”

So, alongside the Fairy Non Bio sponsorship of the Mumsnet Talk App, they’d like you to talk about the washing schedule your household has. If you avidly check out Mumsnet's talk boards, you should download the app for yourself. It's free, and allows you to be part of the conversation wherever you are!

All those who post below will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 Love2Shop voucher.

Thanks, and good luck with the prize draw!

Too many I reckon. 4 of us in the house and we do about 6 a week. Useless like it is constant because the clothes never get put away. Always something on the line, the rack and the chair!

Bechoole · 19/12/2016 09:02

four of us here, kids aged 12 and 7 - usually 5-6 loads per week

footdust · 19/12/2016 09:22

There's me, DH and and teen DD in the house. We easily do at least a load every day for clothes plus 2 load for towels and 1 load for bedding each week. .

Keletubbie · 19/12/2016 09:56

3-4, unless illness or particularly gross canine intervention.

jenniwren12 · 19/12/2016 11:06

we do at least 10 loads a week, and right now, I don't know what we're going to do because my machine has just broken! arghhhh

katkatgu · 19/12/2016 11:09

At least one a day!

bubbleybooboo · 19/12/2016 11:10

I do three to four loads a week for us depending on how many of us are out and about otherwise its a lot less as we live in our pjs haha

Theres 5 of us in our house. Me, My partner, My two daughters (14 and 7) and my son (11)

Calphurnia · 19/12/2016 11:24

Handwash items, like bras, wool.sweaters & dress up outfits once a week

Cold wash swimming costume after each swim, once or twice a week

We separate darks, lights & whites & the machine is on once a day except my birthday, Xmas Day, Boxing Day & Mother's Day.

Towels & bedding just go in according to colour

DC has eczema, & the GP recommended Fairy Non Bio liquid. We add an extra rinse & don't use fabric conditioner

N6CNH · 19/12/2016 12:04

2 adults we do around 3 loads a week.

ShutTheFridgeUp · 19/12/2016 12:09

About 5-6 a week. Even that's not enough! I probably see the bottom of my washing basket about twice a year 😫

Hedgeh0g · 19/12/2016 12:11

One towels, one bedding, usually three darks and a whites wash. Since baby 2 came along it seems endless!

stillfallingforyou3 · 19/12/2016 13:08

our household does 3 lots of washing a week...darks,whites and then towels/blankets etc

FuckingHateRats · 19/12/2016 13:37

Usually one a day - we have three kids and two adults in our family.

rachelmi · 19/12/2016 15:39

About ten per week . Give or take

towser44 · 19/12/2016 16:11

At least once a day, everyday, so at least 7 a week.

Elliepurpleflower · 19/12/2016 18:11

5 of us including a baby and toddler.... Minimum of one a day, often 2 a day.

wobblywindows · 19/12/2016 18:39

About 6, averaging one a day except for the weekend when we're too busy. Me + daughter.
whites, blacks, reds, 1 wash for bras, 1 each towels & bedding.

Maturebow · 19/12/2016 19:05

About 3-4. We try to be efficient when washing and have a large drum washing machine Smile.
There is Two of Us.

We are conscious about water and electricity and it all works out well.

strawberrisc · 19/12/2016 19:18

Three dark loads a week and one white.

DiggityDam · 19/12/2016 19:24

Too many!!

But on average 1 a day alternating between whites and mixed. That's for two adults and 2 under 5.

juju3 · 19/12/2016 20:10

About 10

sarahbrokenshire · 19/12/2016 20:40
