The only separate wash I do is cloth nappies, everything else goes in together, whites, colours, darks, towels etc.....I like to live dangerously
and that's why Riley doesn't have any white vests.. They're all grey
LOL I've never heard of a separate towel wash; I just shove everything in, in order of priority. Being heavily pregnant I have very little that fits me, so I normally shove my stuff in, then LO's stuff (because she pees through a lot at the moment), and then OH's stuff (if I have space) LOL.
I wash everything at 40c, no matter what. My LO threw up on everything last night and I still threw it in the wash at 40c
