Default How many loads of laundry do you do each week?

Sorry for the boring thread... I was just wondering because I think I do too many loads a week. Probably 7 or 8 and there is only the 3 of us

OMG!! I am soo overwashing, but there are 7 of us! And the bigger the kids the bigger the clothing-which does take up more room in the washer!

I do a load everyday sometimes two or three.

Average is prob ten a week. That includes bedding which I change twice a week and OH work stuff plus dog blankets and towels as we use loads of old towels in wet weather drying Barney off.

too many in short. I do whites twice a week, pastels (all imo's!) twice a week, georges school clothes and jeans etc almost everyday and daddys work clothes go in separately as they are minging, just touching them and you get black hands, usually 3 times a week. I'm being naughty at the mo and doing several loads of washing on the days i work an then take them to work and dry them in the GIANT dryers, dries 4 loads in about 45 mins.
