For those of you that used sleep/swaddle sacks, how many did you keep on hand? I was thinking 3 was good number but watned to check? Also, how often did you wash?

Just 2. I do laundry often enough that I found I don't need more.
I wash them every third night or so in the warmer weather. In the winter I let them go 5 nights before a wash.

3. I wash them every three days. It's a good number to have on hand even though I do laundry frequently.

We have 3, but I think 2 would be enough once you're past the diaper-blowout phase.

I have 3. It's a perfect number for us since lo spits up all of the time and we do his laundry at least every other day.

We used Woombies for several months, and I think at my peak I had 3 and that was plenty. I rotated 2 of them bc I didnt like the other one. I washed it every few days or sooner if she peed or puked or pooped on it =o)

thanks, I'm thinking I'll stick with 3 from the numbers I'm seeing. And I'm not loving all the pee, pop, puke talk Haha strange to think that will be my reality come 2 months!

I have 4 - 2 fleece ones and 2 lighter weight cotton ones (all Halo brand sleep sacks). I think 3 or 4 is fine, we end up doing laundry every few days anyhow, and she can wear them for more than 1 night before they need to be washed.

3 in each size in cotton, and another 3 in fleece. This way we have one for in the crib, one in the wash, and one in the drawer for middle of the night emergencies. Just like crib sheets. I change it out once a week to a new one when I do the laundry, or sooner if it smells or he has a leak or something.

I currently have one. Brutal! I really need to get more but that was all they had in her size and I can't buy baby clothes in my tiny town.

We still use halo sleepsacks every night & every nap for DD & we have 5 cotton & 2 fleece. I could have just 3 cotton & be fine I think

In the colder months, we only had one fleece sleepsack. That was tough since we didn't have a backup. Now, we have two. One is cotton and the other is muslin. Two is enough but I wish we had at least one more. DS was sick last week and we ended up having two dirty sleepsacks and no replacements.

The A+A ones I had two of each (lightweight and heavy weight ones) b/c they are pricier. The Halo ones I think I have like 3 or 4. And I wash them every week unless it gets soiled by pee which does happen from time-to-time.

1 swaddle and 1 halo sleep sack, it works good for us but we dont use them every day since its summer and im afriad of him overheating.

I have two summer ones, one winter one. If the winter one needs a washing, I end up doing it during the day when LO doesn't need it.
