She's not fantasic at wiping herself, so I figure it's worth having enough pairs for 2x a day to keep her a little cleaner. Underwear doesn't really take up a lot of room in the laundry...


I also sleep in a t-shirt and underwear. Never occured to me that if I put pj bottoms on, the underwear could/should come off. Anyway, I'm not wearing PJ bottoms.

DS gets fresh underwear at night, does not change in the morning and never, ever has dribbles. His control is better than mine. But he hasn't had two kids. I get fresh underwear every morning/after shower. Or as needed.

Another one who's amazed at all the commando sleeping. Who knew!

We change underwear after bath, or in the morning if no bath the night before.

Well, I think not wearing underwear to sleep in is strange, so we'll have to agree to disagree. I'm just not big into the naked sleeping thing.

I had no idea that it was the norm "not" to wear underwear at night. How bizarre.

The commando thing is freaking me out. I've been wearing cotton underwear to bed for most of my life and my kids do too. Unless it's hot as blazes and the AC is down, or well, you know, DH and I are looking for some action. For some reason I don't like the idea of DDs in nightgowns and no undies. Maybe I'll announce a new undie optional policy.
Seemed like a good idea to wear them, so you can just change the undies if anybody has a small accident

Yeah, my 3yo sure is slutty. Please.

+1

But if DD insisted on wearing them at night for some reason, then we'd do a fresh pair at night and another fresh pair in the morning. I would not want her starting the day with 8-9 hours of funky underwear (people sweat and fart at night, etc.). Starting out the day with non-fresh undies seems gross to me.

Once a day - after bath or in the morning. Some of us wear underwear at night and other don't.

I had no idea all these people were going commando at night. No wonder some people change their sheets so often.


So sheets magically get dirtier if a little boy in PJ bottoms without underwear sleeps on them vs. if a little boy in PJ bottoms with underwear sleeps on them? How?

My son changes at night after bath, and that's the only time. I don't sleep in underwear and just put on a fresh pair every morning after I shower.

And anyone who does anything differently from you is strange and bizarre?

You're a head case, toots.
