im not washing mine until she is here. my first born the docs told me i was having a girl and i ended up having a boy. i dont trust the docs so im waiting. i went thru hell returning everything amd trying to sell the clothes i washed. my kids father will wash them while im in the hospital
I washed it as i got it and packed it away the more work u get done earlier on the less you have to do when all you want to do is relax
I washed anything that will come in contact with their skin to get the chemicals out but just used our normal washing detergent as we already use a hyperallergenic one and that way it will also smell like us. We washed everything over a coyple of weeks around 26-29wks as we're not going past 36wks.
I started at 35 wks, im now 39 wks.
Everytime I got a new pair of clothes or blankets or anything I washed it immediately to put them in the dressers. Anything new I get I wash.
Its a good idea too. Even when there brand new. I did and I'm almost 35 weeks.
