    Default How did you resist the urge?

    Just wondering how everyone managed to resist the urge to keep washing all their baby clothes? I have washed mine they all smell beautiful and clean but I feel like I NEED to rewash them I know im probably just nesting but my god I feel OCD!

    Why resist!! Hehe I washed my bubs clothes a few times out of excitement.

    Heck my friend even ironed hers! Whatever floats your boat when your nesting i say - I used to send DH wild!!

    I didnt! I washed and ironed all of his clothes and wraps, the morning before I went into labour I got up and rewashed his towels, wraps and fashwashers. I ironed his wrap and had beautiful symetrical piles of towels and facewashers piled all before DH got out of bed.

    The smell of ironing freshly washed baby clothes still gets me! I still iron everything... including singlets!

    I never had the urge to wash babys clothes, but I always had the urge to refold and reorganize the clothes, blankets, washers etc. I packed and repacked my labour and hospital bag a few times.
    Df would often find me sitting on the floor surrounded by baby clothes, lol.

    Hmmm. Just think about all the water it would waste?

    That might help!
