hello ladies

Just wanted to know what you guys thought on washing your newborns clothes before you put them on your child. I am a first time mom and i was debating on whether i should wash my baby's clothes before she wears them. So if any of you first time moms can just maybe give me your opinion that would be great thanks! :-)

I even took the car seat cover off the brand new car seat and washed it. Everything comes from a factory

I agree! You should always wash new clothes. Even your own.  Who knows where it has been and how many people have touched it and from where.

im washing everything before using it with a gentle detergent. who knows where what you get or bought has been. and everything is alittle  softer after a wash so i think baby will be alittle  more comfortable.

I would recommend washing them first. I use baby deft because it's hypoallergenic and gentle
