Things one might...: Things one might get from doing a sibling's laundry:  get a big thank-you from the sibling if you do the laundry correctly and fold the clothes, or get yelled at for a week if you do the laundry wrong and end up shrinking  the clothes or bleaching color out... which means, always ask before doing another's laundry!

Perfume-free: You can wash your infant's clothes along with yours as long as your baby doesn't have eczema or sensitive skin.   You should use a dye-free, perfume-free detergent.  If your baby has a reaction to the detergent, you may have to switch to baby detergent and wash separately.

Question 9

tend to hide my body with lots of clothes. why should people care?

Accepted Answer

Self image: The simple answer is - you really shouldn't care that other people care. Just be yourself. The more important question is - what's going on that makes you feel you need to hide your body?

Question 10

how do i manage my son who doesn't like having his clothes changed?

Accepted Answer

Don't go changing: Change him only when necessary.  Frills and decorations can be irritating to some young children whose senses are still maturing (some makers have gone tagless.) when he needs to be changed, be firm but gentle, as when you are fastening the car seat straps. Limit how often you have this battle to only those times when you need to win it.
