Do the burp cloths/receiving blankets/swaddles need to be washed first?
thanks!!! it's "baby shower aftermath" right now....i'm trying to sort everything out, arrange by size, then wash the important stuff first...DH told me to wait for him until tonight but I seriously can't help myself. Not doing the heavy stuff like assembling toys and swings, but trying to get started since it's my day off.

I did anything that would be in direct contact with the baby's skin and then a bunch of friends all laughed at me and were like its not a big deal and nothing needs to be washed- my own mom said she never washed anything with me
so its really personal preference I guess!

I didnt wash bibs or burp clothes or anything like that.

Wash the sheets, burp cloths, receiving blankets, t-shirts, bibs and sleepers.
Definitely sort by size. I wouldn't wash anything over 3 months right now - because you may not use all of it.

This is what we did, too. Baby clothes are small; you'd be surprised what you can fit into a load of laundry!!

I washed everything with DS. Just think about all the people who touch items in the stores...if I could wash it, then I did!
