Washing powder for babies?

Hi there, was just wondering what powder to use when washing the babies clothes?

I started off with LUX......i know a lot of girls use Amolin (sp?).
I just chuck everything in together now...no time to seperate clothing. This babys clothes will have the 'biozet smell'...

Belinda, I am going to be using Omo Sensitive!! I normally just use the normal Omo but thought I would change and start stocking up on the sensitive one. I want to start washing everything now but thought that would be pretty stupid and that I would have to just do it again before bubs arrives!!

I use Lux Flakes with my new borns. Then graduate up to Amolin. TBH it's a lot less stuffing around than the flakes. You have to melt them before using them. Although they do smell divine ;)

I use Amolin or Purity - both liquids and both gentle!

i use Earth Laundry Liquid, all natural and great smell

I tried Lux flakes but quickly got over that, too hard for me haha... I went to omo sensitive and it was so much easier. After my first bub and I was over the baby cotton wool stuff LOL, we all used omo sensitive and all clothes went in together too.

Amolin is the best IMO because it smells like baby ;) I LOVE the smell. I could sit and sniff the bottle LOL!

The flakes are such a pain! I started using them, and then went to Purity, then tried some sensitive powders such as Omo but it made ds's eczema worse so just kept using Purity. Occasionally I will put his stuff in with ours and just use Cold Power.

I'm using the Lux flakes for bub's clothes coz I'm currently still diligent at hand washing the clothes although I know I wont be doing it for long after bub's arrived! *lol* But I've also got Purity Sensitive for the nappies and towels.

Quick cut in : Do you add in any softener with the towels n clothe nappies? I used Purity and didn't think that it was all that soft the other so just wanted to check with you ladies....I know Lux leave the clothes soft and smelling SOOOOooooo heavenly!!! :)

I use lavender cuddly with my babies stuff. So with either the Lux flakes or the Amolin I still used the Cuddly.

We use Omo Sensitive :)
