I have a feeling which category I'd end up in. I hate dealing with those big huge pieces of fabric. :/ I wash the sheets on my bed more often than the kids' beds. There just doesn't seem to be much point in washing theirs every week. Lol.
 
Sheets/pillowcases - once a week at least.
Comforter cover - once a week.
Mattress cover, pillow covers, and comforter - twice a month.
 
I will say..I don't wash my comforter nearly as much as the sheets.mainly b/c I have to have it dry cleaned. My washer doesn't like the king comforter on my bed (and it has the capacity to fit a king comforter..mine just must be the exception or something)

it stops mid-wash every time and I have to keep restarting it..so frustrating so I just have it dry cleaned usually
 
more or less every 2 weeks. more often if my kids dripped something or i see crayon scribbles :glare:
 
Weekly for us too. Sometimes I wash the girls' sheets more if there have been an accident (especially true for my toddler)...

Oh, I remember this one episode of Oprah where she was saying it was nasty/gross to not have clean bed linens DAILY. One of her guests said something like... well, not all of us can do that. First off, it's wasteful when it comes to water & stuff and who has the time to strip all the beds in their house every day? Obviously Oprah has maids who do that for her. ;)

I aim to strip the beds weekly like my mom always did, but honestly it's more like every-other week. I will say that it helps that we are all in the routine of bathing nightly before bed, it keeps our sheets cleaner. I have a "thing" about sending the kids to bed sweaty or dirty. :p Also, my kids stay dry all night (no bed wetters)

Martha says if you have a comforter/duvet cover, you really don't need to wash the comforter. I, personally, must wash everything otherwise it gives me the sceevies. If it's possible, a comforter cover would help you out and save on the dry cleaning bill. Most comforter covers are thinner like bed sheets.
 
I wash my sheets weekly. One of my favorite things is fresh sheets on the bed. I have a duvet and I only was it every couple of months.
 
I usually do mine weekly, but this week...I've done it twice. My husband is a sweater, and it's been humid here, and they were stanky.

Now, the kids' bed sheets...those wind up being like ever 3 or 4 wks. So gross, but they're kids. :)
 
I wash the kids weekly too :0x I usually do them all in 1 day.

I cheat though...I strip the bed and remake it immediately with a clean sheet set. I don't wait for fresh sheets although I DO LOVE me some fresh linens..all smelly good from the dryer

we bathe at night too..I usually work out and get a run in everyday (m-f) so I'm pretty nasty by the time I hit the shower lol..I'd never put that in my bed haha
 
I've never accurately measured it, but I'm thinking every two weeks. We do have a bedcover for when it gets nippier later in the year that I have washed after a longer period.
 
The goats make me feel like an outsider.

But about the sheets, I really have no preference. My mom was a once a week kind of washer, and I was thrilled to move away and discover how unnecessary that is, as long as certain precautions are taken. I'm more of a, "Hmmm, I think these stink, I'll change them." kind of washer.

Goats? So confused and feeling unspecial haha. and now I have to look at siggies to know who people are :P

I try to wash our sheets every week, especailyl in the summer. That said, if DH is gone in the field or deployed, it usually is less frequently...and because well, I'm lazy lol.
 
I want to say I do it every week, but really I'm happy if they get washed every other week. We generate so stinking much laundry that it's hard to make myself add another load to the list, LOL.
 
Every single Wednesday morning! Sleeping on brand new sheets is totally my favorite thing. I'd probably wash them twice a week if making the bed wasn't such a pain.
