Pyjama Question??

Post by Noggin »

This may be a weird one!! I have little knowledge as don't use PJs! But was thinking about people that must do here.

Do you use the same set for a week?? a few nights?? one night??

I was thinking I should get some to sleep in (just incase I need to be back in reeducation at some one :roll: ) but how many do you need? I mean, if you change them every night, I'd need ten sets of PJs so I could get most washed but not have to do it too often (hand washing or I can pay for a load here) ??

I know I'm probably pretty disgusting (to some people) at the mo in that I sleep in the tshirt I've been wearing in the day - but I'm not getting hot in it, so I figure it's better than sleeping as I do at home and having to find a towel to wear to the loo each time I wake up (and manage all that around the right arm being problematic and the wheelchair - getting from the bed to chair to loo to chair to bed etc incase a nurse pops in as I'm doing that !!!!) - I might have to find another solution when I start actually getting hot and sweaty in physio!!

But yeah - whats up with PJs and how often they need changing??

I sleep in the pants (Spyder ones that real MMA fighters wear) I've been wearing that day.

The wife has more pairs of jim-jams than I've had hot diners. If I'm ever short for a present then it's off to the Chelsea Peters website.

I couldn't tell you how often she changes them, I don't pay that much attention.

I have always run hot overnight, so haven't worn PJs since I was a kid. I'd say I sleep bollock naked but you know, don't have any soooo - boob naked? :angelic-green: :lol: :lol:

It just crossed my mind over the weekend what other people do about PJs cos if I did, I'd totally have to change them after every night!

If I go away, I just grab a big tshirt to wear - think I have two nighties but they are not suitable for either sleeping or for rehab :lol: :lol: :lol:

Every 3 to 4 nights minimum. More often if you 'sleep hot', more often in summer than winter, more often if you lounge about in them before bed...

Having slept as nature intended for most of my life I can't bear pyjama pants - or other pants at night so, for those instances where one might need to wander about at night at short notice (hotel/fire alarm scenarios etc) I've gone old school à la Wee Willie Winkie. :lol:

Myself it’s boxers & t shirt. Missus starts off with Jim jams. When I wake up most mornings I have her leggings wrapped around my head. It’s been going for a good number of years now. When we first got married I found it a little strange but now I’m used to it and consider it normal😀

Yup! :lol:

(But only one other person has seen me in one. :D ).

It's not that long ago that nightshirts and not PJs were the thing.

Plus it's a plug for a company that make other excellent stuff and most of it is made in the UK. :thumbup:

Yeah, kinda that. You gonna catch worms if you can't change your jammies daily.

Mind you, at the opposite end of the spectrum is my dressing gown. Even by my own lax standards it's minging.
