I'm just curious.
I grew up in a "we make the beds" family. All beds were made before the day got started.
My husband grew up in a "no need to make the bed, no one will see them" family.
When we first got married it drove me NUTS that he didn't make the bed. Now I'm about 50/50 with bed making (maybe less).
What is the consensus? Who does/doesn't make the bed?

Nope, never, not since DH and I started living together. And I grew up always making my bed.
When I worked, DH was always still in bed when I left for work. I gave up years ago trying to get him to make the bed when he got up. It's really not a big deal to me.
I am completely lazy in the housework department, but I just think making beds is one of those things that takes such a minimal effort, yet instantly makes a room look clean, even if the floors haven't been done in several weeks

This is my situation. Usually up with the boys by 5:30 and I hustle to get them so no.
Yes, otherwise every time I walk by the room I feel like I am not on top of my life. All the sheets are changed weekly too.
And I guess a perk to still using a sleep sack with DS is there is not much to do in that dept!
I agree. My kids' beds are kind of harder to make but we try.
We recently moved into a new house we bought, rather than the rental (thank god) but we lost a bedroom. So now that my "office" is in our bedroom I can't handle the mess. Our bedroom has never been so clean!
Yes I make my bed every day, not right away but before I get to work.
LO is still in a crib, and so there's nothing to make yet. But I imagine i'll make his bed too in the future.
We don't...I actually wish we did, but I just never end up doing it unless we're changing sheets. For awhile (and by that I mean 3 weeks max) I did it everyday and really liked it, but that didn't last long.
It doesn't make much sense for me to make it in the morning because I still lay down and take a nap everyday when DS does!
