Also don't wash too much! My sister washed a whole mess of clothes and my nephew barely wore any of it. Especially newborn stuff. Wash a few stuff at a time

you want something that is unscented and do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets. Babies are very sensitive anything with scent can be itchy as can the chemicals in fabric softener.

I'd suggest All free and clear or Method (free and clear - forget what the call it exactly - it is from Target) Kirkland unscented is good too.

if you want the cloths softer - you can get this dryer balls with the little spiky things - they work really well and save you money! (i get really itchy from dryer sheets - so i use the balls)

I use all free and clear.  Any detergent is fine that is free of dyes and perfumes. A lot of mom's use dreft but if you buy All free and clear at Sams club, cosco. ..It's very cheap. I don't use fabric softners.
