Re: how much laundry with a newborn?
they dont stay newborn forever… so unless you guys are planning on moving again in 3 months of time… i would say keep looking… you just dont have the time to go out and do laundry holding a basket in one hand, the baby in the other and your keys in your mouth. there will be a billion things to do so even if the weekend is laundry day … soon it wont be.
ok either i kept my newborn dirty or you guys were way way clean with your newborns.. hehe… but i had very little laundry with my newborn.. and that with him having acid reflux.. i think it depends on how much clothing you have for your newborn… if you only have 4 onsies and 5 pj sets.. then yes you will be doing laundry quite often.
and im also confused bout laundry going down as they grow older.. what?! mera bacha reverse mein tho naha jaraha? he started making horrible mess when we started him on solids.. wanting to eat himself… throwing pasta there and sauce here… even though his bib reached down to his legs.. still… his clothes got dirty… i do way more laundry now than i did when he was a newborn.
I think once they are running around and getting into things, it goes back up. But after they are out of the newborn phase and until they are more independent, I think the need to do laundry is less.
