I have a lot of stuff to wash before the baby arrives.  I was just wondering what everyone else did.  I was told to wash it all in the detergent that we use, but then i was also told to you special detergent for babies.  What did everyone else use?

I use what ever laundry detergent I have at the time... And if baby come back with an allergy to it, I will simply switch, but I haven't had a problem yet.

most detergents have the regular scented kind like most of us use but lots of brands also have a sensitive skin option for the same price....id reccomend getting that one at least to wash your newborn sizes in. all the other clothes i dont think it would matter

U can use normal detergent but make sure it is a non-biological detergent. This will be kinder to baby's skin.

i bought the free and clear detergent for sensitive skin, because i typically use tide which i've heard can cause reactions in some adults.  but the dreft is outragously priced!! so i would not recommend buying it
