Robin,
Know your not alone with the scent of gain making you sick. I'm not with peanut and gain makes me sick. I actually got a bad migraine from the smell of it.
I too washed lots of stuff with it and that's when I finally figured out on like day 2 what was making me sick. By then I was about 3 loads into it too, UGH!. Even after a re-wash things still had the gain smell which took a few more washes to get rid of it. I now stick to only a few choices of detergent brands and scents and don't change no matter how good the sale, LOL! Same with fabric dryer sheets....I only by the unscented ones (this way there is no mixing an extra scent to the mix)! Glad when those Snuggle coupons came out because I stocked up on their unscented sheets, YEAH!
You may not want to wash anything else with it...including J's clothing...you will still be able to smell it on him and in his clothes (in the closet or even the drawers).
Give it away or trade your neighbor!
Best of luck to you and the rest of the laundry.

2|2|With the blamket I did not add anything else... WIth the clothing I added Tide stain stuff & Snuggle... That seems to have hidden a lot of the Gain smell... but I will smell it all again and if I can smell even a little I think I will give it away... I don't want to smell it on Jeromy... His smell is already making me sick! LOL Well to be fair it was right after he spent a whole day building our deck and he had forgotten his deoderant - LoL - Ok, off to smell my laundry again... And, I guess, start the blanket on a second wash cycle!|RobinsCrazyWorld|robinmarie72@gmail.com|19:29:35|05/11/2010|

3|3|blanket even... Ok, just smelled the laundry - Going to wash EVERYTHING again... a few times, I guess. Blah! Got a botte of Tide without scent & dye so I am wondering if it will take even more washing??? I guess i will know tomorrow... I am just glad I have yet to wash my new sheets! I think I will do those next.|RobinsCrazyWorld|robinmarie72@gmail.com|19:32:00|05/11/2010|

4|4|I can't use the scented laundry soap either|mindylou86|mindylou86@gmail.com|22:33:27|05/11/2010|
and I am NOT preggers! 
LOL! When they came out with all the Downey with Lavender, Almond, Vanilla samples, etc., I gave them all to my neice! I have to stick with the unscented detergent. I can't even handle the perfume samples that come in my People magazine. I have to tear them out and put them in the garbage before I even sit down to read it. They give me such a headache! 
I am sure a neighbor or maybe someone Jeromy works with would be happy to get the Gain. Some people LOVE the smell of it.

6|1|Robin, if you rewash that stuff, add about a cup of white vinegar to the wash cycle, that should take the scent out...and since they're already clean, dont add any detergent. :)|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|17:06:29|05/12/2010|
