Something dye and fragrance free is recommended. Even tide free or whatever it's called still has something in it. I only use ALL free and clear for everything because of my own allergy issues so that's what I'll use for baby as well, just like with my first one

So to clarify it doesnt have to be draft right...just a fragment and dye free gentle detergent. I already have all my girls clothes ready and washed with ALL fragment/dye free

I use the brand All baby detergent. I'm still using it with my two year old because she breaks out if I use regular on her

I use tide free and gentle for our family anyway so I expect to continue using that. No dyes or scents.

I use the same as usual. But do not use fabric softener on fleece. It makes it really itchy.

I will wash baby's clothes separately, but I will be using All free and clear which is what I use on my family's clothes as well.

I switched all of us to tide free and gentle. No softener or perfume.

I used draft for my babies as well but I use my regular soap for my sheets where I nursed my baby on my bed and nothing ever happened to the three babies that I had

Babies are very sensitive. I use Dreft but I'm sure there's a generic that's cheaper if you prefer.

Yes it's recommended for a few months. I usually start introducing our detergent at like 4 or 5 months when baby has gotten out of their newborn skin. Newborns are sensitive to everything. I would suggest it. But it's totally up to you. ♡ :) good luck! I never wash my kids stuff with mine.
