if you're dealing with kids, i don't reccomend any type of perfumed
detergent.
it can cause some pretty serious rashes.
all free 'n clear is pretty much all i can use.
otherwise i get really sick.

I use All hypoallergenic too due to allergies. If you are after the
laundry smelling good you could always use fabric softeners with
perfume, but I agree with the kids issue, if you have kids, would be
cautious for allergies with rashes and other problems.

You might try Dreft. Good for babies and kids, as well as adults. Safe
all around:wink:

We are like Marie too.....with girls you need to be very careful with
perfumes and fabric softeners........
Because of my son, I buy all my stuff from an allergy company!!!!!!!!

I have four kids and all have allergies...but I use liquid WHISK or ALL
(small & mighty) in the small bottle...the concentrate...it is smaller,
uses less, and works great...
If you have lots of stains oxyclean now comes in a spray to remove
stains and is affordable too...(cheaper than spray and wash and works
better)...

This is a small look into how severe my son is......we were in an
allergy study when he was in the third grade to test a medicine that was
already on the market. Practically everyone pre qualified with skin
testing but you had to have your blood test match the severity of the
skin test. My son's numbers were off of the charts and he was one of 8
kids in THREE COUNTRIES that made it into the study. I was stunned!!!!!!
Shouldn't be because I am the same as he is but with my lousy school
district insurance, I can only afford to have him treated. I had to buy
the pillowcase covers, the mattress encasing, special sheets AND a
special comforter. I have to dust and vacumn his room and make sure he
gets the XOLAIR twice a month. I do most of his laundry with the allergy
control stuff. It is very concentrated!!!! Hope this helps......

Not a problem at all.....scan the catalog and see if you like it. You
can even call them and ask questions. I have some extra bottles.....a 24
oz bottle costs $22.95 But it is very concentrated and you use only a
capful.

This is going to sound crazy but I would be more than happy to send you
one of mine...for free. I swear I am not a stalker. I just know what it
is like to watch your child suffer and there have been so many people
that have helped me along this crazy path of parenting. The offer is
there if you need it. I hope you do not think I am crazy!!!!!
