Pre-washing Crib bumper/sheet???

I was wondering if I needed to prewash the crib bumper, sheet and quilt for Landen's nurery.  I know to prewash his clothes with dreft, but what about the bumper and crib sheet?  Anyone know?  They are new,  but I also know to wash clothes, even if they are new, is it the same for sheet/bumper?  thanks

I wash everything, took it to the laundry.  You need to be extra careful with all thats going to be touching the baby

I washed everything, sheets, bumper pad, and the quilt.  They say to wash ANYTHING that the baby comes in contact with.  They didn't fade or anything....most of them are machine washable, especially since at some point you are probably going to have to wash them.  Hope this helps!  Good luck

I washed the sheet...no quilt or bumper washing for me.  He didnt use the quilt ever (just decoration).  By the time he was able to touch the bumpers I took them out of the crib.
I washed everything probably about 3 weeks before I was due.  There is no rush...plus if you do it too soon then it is just collecting dust.  LOL.
