Is it best to wash my baby's clothes and blankets with baby detergent or is it okay to use my normal soap?

baby detergent is what I used until about 6 months

Use baby or sensitive soap, or one with only 2 or 3 ingredients....the irritating things are all those chemicals, I hear you can make your own very simple ones!

Honestly it's up to you. With my first I used all natural baby stuff then I switched to different kinds. But it really depends on what you think. You know your baby best. Anything is fine but if you start noticing a rash after you switch then it could possibly mean baby is having a reaction to whatever you are using. @ddrake

Up to you! I used regular detergent on all my children's things.

the hospitals use original tide and bleach! don't waitst your money on that expensive crap.
