Thank you ladies. I didn't want to feel like I just destroyed my babies clothes. I have 12 newborn outfits. All gifts no receipts. I actually haven't bought any clothes and didn't want to return them so I figured wash them anyways.

You wasn't supposed to put them in the dryer. You have to hang them up to air dry and they don't shrink.

There's actually a trick to unthinking.clothes and I've done it.myself an it worked great. Go on YouTube and type in "how to unshrink my clothes" an a tutorial will pop up. Or you can just Google it and they have written tutorials. All you need is hot water and baby shampoo or conditioner. Good luck!!
