    We wash all of DD's clothes with Oxyclean. We didn't use it on the first load though, we only use it now to keep stains out.

    Not too sure about that. We use Dreft.

    I don't see any reason to do it when you're pre-washing everything before the baby comes, but if there's a stain or something it's fine to do.  They do make a Baby Oxiclean if you're worried (which is recommended for use on cloth diapers, if you want to use an oxygen cleaner, FYI)

    I use the "free and clear" version of Oxyclean

    No I wouldn't use it in the initial cleaning.  I have one outfit that I got dirt cheap from Bon-Ton because it has the smallest of spots and I bought another outfit from a consignment sale, these are the only things I'd wash in it before hand.

     Thanks for the info about the cloth diapers.  I was going to post that next on the EFF board.

    We just wash our LO's clothing like our clothing.  Nothing special.  I tried the OxyClean stuff, but it didn't get all the stains out or make C's clothing any whiter than if I used bleach.  If you're worried about having residual soap leftover in their clothing, then have your washer do an additional rinse cycle.

    I just got Baby OxiClean, I figure if they make a baby version they probably don't recommend the other version? But I think as long as you do an extra rinse it should be OK.

    I do a pre-wash soak cycle with the oxiclean for babies and then run them through a regular cycle with Tide.?

    I have just been using oxyclean on loads of baby clothes that have stains or lots of spit up or poo on them. I don't use it on every load.

    I use it in every load of laundry, but then every load I do has baby spit up or poop or toddler food stains.  For clothes that are heavily stained I soak in a little basin with oxyclean for an hour or so before washing.  It gets out every stain I've had so far.
