Do You Really Need a Special Detergent for Baby Clothes?

Posted on

If you thought you washed a lot of clothes before becoming a parent, hold onto your laundry basket! The average family accumulates 8 to 10 loads of laundry each week – and because newborns have extra-sensitive skin, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that you start washing baby’s clothes before he or she even arrives.

Do you need a special laundry detergent for baby clothes?


The decision is entirely up to you! It’s true that some families toss everyone’s dirty clothes in the same load, but using the same detergent for all isn’t ideal when a newborn is in the mix. Many detergents contain chemicals and fragrances that can irritate baby’s delicate skin. If you’re eczema-prone or have sensitive skin, chances are baby may react negatively to harsh ingredients.
