Various people have told me that whatever I buy for the baby has to be washed before I can use it i.e all the clothes, the baby towels and all the bedding for the cot/crib/moses baskets.
Is it really necessary or jus tone of those tales that gets passed from person to person and so everyone juat assumes it has to be done...
I have got so, so, so many clothes for this baby already - including 2nd hand ones donated to me from my friend who had her baby 8 months ago - and the thought of having to wash them all.... well....is it really necessary??
If so then obviously I will, I just wasn't sure if it was a MUST or an optional choice and what the reason for it is??
