What exactly are muslin squares? I imagine that very very thin material that you use to strain home made jam or cheese? If it is the same stuff, I fail to see how useful they could really be as what I'm imagining is not absorbent and has biggish holes in it.
I remember reading a post on here where someone suggested getting as many as 25 squares, but when I've gone to buy these they are really not cheap at all!
Are they really the be all and end all to new motherhood? I can't help thinking some of those super cheap thin flannels from ikea would be cheaper, or kitchen roll for convenience of not needing to wash and iron them.
I will duely do as you instruct as I really am a clueless first timer. To buy or not to buy... And how many?
