Dreft and detergent question/poll

PennyLane26

Hi! Sorry to be a post hog! I wanted to start washing some of the baby clothes we've purchased/received but wanted to poll you ladies on what your plans for with washing. I've heard to wash with something like Dreft, but couldn't another sensitive skin laundry detergent be used instead? Down the road, I know I'll just be using my regular Tide on Gracie's clothes anyways! Thoughts? Recommendations?

Will you only be washing baby clothes in Dreft (or a similar baby detergent)?

If you are not using Dreft, can you recommend a detergent?

And just for fun, on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being important,10 being most ridiculous), how do view the detergent debate?
