How often do you change your bedding ?

We have a kingsize Tempur adjustable bed. Each half has it's own control to adjust the head and foot separately. We therefore have a cotton jersey fitted sheet for each half. We each have a single 1tog duvet with a cotton jersey duvet cover. Over these we have a kingsize 1 tog duvet with a patterned duvet cover.
I too air the bedding before making the bed each day.
The benefits of the single duvets are that we both feel cosy without having a gap that lets in colder air, it also facilitates washing one half of 'underbedding' and putting it back on (dealing with smaller bottom sheets and single duvet covers is so much easier when making the bed). The patterned duvet cover gets changed every 2 or even sometimes 3 weeks as we never really touch that! In fact during warmer months we don't have the kingsize duvet on the bed at all! We never sleep on the patterned pillows as we each have a Tempur pillow in a cotton jersey pillowcase to sleep on.

Weekly--daft really as there's only me but it's become a habit.

Once a week, my husband says if we were rich he would like fresh sheets every day. So would I, but we are not rich, so once a week it is.

Like Queen Elizabeth 1st - once a year, whether they need changing or not!

When it needs it! (Every second week) or earlier if needed.

Roughly every 10 days, two windows open every night, so not hot and turn quilt back in the morning. I wash, husband remakes with different set.

"When I win the lottery I will pay a lady to change the bedding every day."
Bit sexist there vampirequeen! When you interview your candidates for the job, I hope you'll give equal consideration to the gentleman applicants!

I'll be quite happy to have another gentleman in my bedroom

I change the bottom sheet and pillowcases every Friday. The duvet cover gets turned over and gets changed every other week. I sleep alone so it doesn’t get dirty really. Sometimes change more often if very hot summer

I once read that Jackie Kennedy had her sheets changed twice a day, once in the morning and again after her afternoon nap.

Once a week or more often if the cat leaves muddy paw prints.

Super king size bed so a pain, but still once a week , sometimes more in very hot weather, or if my Psoriasis has needed a lot of ointments and creams.

Every two years without fail!

I read that too Bossyrossy

I am clearly a slut and do not want to induce pearl-clutching so I will not say!

My reasoning is that there are no nights of wild passion goin on (more's the pity!), my PJs soak up any sweat (chance would be a fine thing this winter) and they are regularly washed, I am on my own so it is down to me, and too much laundry is bad for the environment.

Every week!

I used to do it once a week, then once a fortnight but since lockdown I don’t even remember how long the sheets have been on! I just change them when they start to smell ‘fusty’. I sleep alone and so does my son, we both shower and are never unclean so I don’t think it matters that much.

Once every 2 weeks - I find it such a difficult job to do that I can't manage to do it any more. It takes me half a day just to remake the bed.

Toast crumbs are a good exfoliater

Every Sunday. One set off, and the new set straight on. I hate going to bed and finding that I still need to put new bedding on.

And I'm another who would hire someone to change the bed daily if I won the lottery ?

Vampire queen that is exactly what I would do if had a substantial win on the lottery. Fresh 100%cotton sheets and bedding on the bed everyday and someone else dealing with it including the laundering. My other indulgence would be to have someone else wash and dry my hair every other day, another tiresome chore ?

I m so interested why people want to know this It so often comes up as a thread what on earth is the interest with what other peoples laundry habits are ??
Such a strange thing to ask and even stranger to answer what does it matter what other people do

You can be awful rude! Go read something else if you dont like it or think its a strange post! Just because you think its strange does not set it in stone!

Once a week, sometimes can stretch to 10 days if the weather isn't good for drying. Have heard of using a sheet under the duvet and been assured it is easier as you can older instead of struggling with the duvet cover.

Wasn't there an argument on Loose Women over this once about how often one changed the bedding?

Yes, it is a weird question but one I felt compelled to read the answers to because I remember being shown around a friend’s new home where, apologising for the state of one of her son’s bedrooms she asked me how often I changed my sheets. On learning it was twice weekly she replied; really?!! I do mine only every couple of months. That would account for the smell

It’s amazing how you think you know a person. Her presentation of herself was immaculate and one would never have guessed she climbed out of a filthy bed each morning

Lucky girl you make me feel normal! I don’t understand this once a week wash. Whatever do folks get up to that warrants that level of cleanliness. But I don’t understand the bed making fetish either. I leave my duvet pulled back all day to air the bed.

I’m trying to remember when I last redecorated the bedroom
