Do you mix baby's clothes with your clothes or wash separately?

We've been trying to do them separately but DS's clothes are so tiny! Sometimes it takes so long for us to accumulate enough of DS's clothes to do a load.

DS, between the towels, sheets, blankets, bibs, and poopee and peepee clothing accumulates a full load for every tuesday and friday all by himself.

Occassionally, if he slimes me up, I'll toss what ever item of mine into his wash (PJs, jacket)... but that's it.

We do a mix. Sometimes we mix DS's clothes and our clothes in a load. If DS accumulates enough on his own, then I'll run his separately. I still use a mesh lingerie bag for his socks and other little items so that I don't lose them in the wash!

I either have the help do the laundry or I fill the machine with DS's clothes and then FM my friends to ask how I should continue.

I mix DD's with mine, because they are more delicate and I don't get mine dirty. Never with DH's, his clothes are always nasty and greasy.

I have always washed DS's clothes alone. I use Dreft for his laundry and not for ours.

I was confused too!! Chat Icon

DS's clothes get washed with mine because I use Tide Free on my clothes anyway. DH does his laundry separately.

I don't because I put bounce in my dryer and ped. told me not to use bounce in the beginning. I haven't asked if it was ok yet though, but if it is, I would mix everything together. I use purex free and clear for both his and our clothes.

Do you notice why your clothes are all pink by now? You'd think you would catch on by now that I keep telling you to wash your reds and whites together. Chat Icon Chat Icon

I wash DD's clothes separately, no matter how small the load is. But between the towels, blankets, bibs etc.. I always end up washing a fully load of DD's clothes.

I just hate when I let the water fill up first and you don't get back to me right away!!! The clothes get moldy. I try to pass the time while I wait by posting more questions.

Dylan's white onesies have all turned blue Chat Icon . No wonder I just think that tie dye stuff stays cleaner.

at the moment I wash only her clothes by themselves because she has so much of it by the middle of the week.

I wash separately still. But it is really for organization purposes and b/c DH wears uniforms and god knows what he touches at workChat Icon

Plus DS has WAY more clothes than we do, so his can get done at longer intervals then usChat Icon

Don't worry about the mold on his clothes. It gives him something to eat in the carseat.

I'm not sure the point of the banter on this thread other than to "make fun" of the OP for asking another question that you don't think she should be asking. Why bother opening her threads if you have an issue with her? Chat Icon

Exactly. So maybe in the future instead of basically "making fun" of someone on their own thread, you will step back and think to yourself, "forget it, not worth a minute of my time".
