How many blankets/sleep sacks do I need?

I've received quite a few swaddling blankets, plus one Halo Sleep Sack. Any suggestions on how many of these I actually need? I know the blankets can be used for plenty of other things, but I'm not really sure how often they'll need to be washed, etc.

    I have used the follwing with my other three babies:  1 miracle blanket (love this), 1 swaddler, 2 fleece sleep sacks, 1 cotton sleep sack, about 15 cloth diapers (for spit up or under baby's chin while nursing to catch all 'extra'), and about 8 receiving blankets.  I did laundry about twice a week and never ran out.  This one will be baby number 4 for us so I am now up to doing laundry four times a week.

    Thanks for asking this. I had my shower this weekend and have a total of 8 receiving blankets, three swaddling blankets, 2 blankets that I will probably use for when she's on the floor, and 3 home made knitted ones.

    I was debating on whether to take a pack of the receiving blankets back, but it sounds like I should keep them.

    We registered for two swaddlers in small, medium and large and we have two sleep sacks in large.  We didn't register for any blankets since it will be a while until baby girl can be in her crib with a blanket anyway.  My shower is this Saturday and I'm sure I will receive blankets anyway.
