The Secret to Choosing Baby Laundry Detergent:

  •  A newborn’s skin is thinner, more sensitive, and less able to act as a protective barrier than adult skin—which is why the fragrances, dyes, and concentrated surfactants in regular laundry detergent can irritate a baby’s skin even when they cause no reaction at all in an adult wearing the same detergent.
  • Regular detergent is also formulated to handle heavier adult-sized dirt and stains, often at the cost of leaving more residue behind in the fabric than a gentler, baby-specific formula would.
  • A fragrance-free, hypoallergenic detergent made for baby clothes rinses cleaner, leaves less residue against the skin, and is worth using for at least the first year, even for clothes that don’t look visibly different from adult laundry.

Cleaning vs. Sterilizing Baby Bottles: What’s the Difference?

Cleaning and sterilizing solve two different problems, and a newborn’s feeding equipment needs both.
