Wash
and care for your Rump•a•rooz:
BREAST
FED POO:
Just roll up the dirty diaper until you can get
to your diaper pail or even wait till wash time...no need
to pre rinse or anything cause breast fed baby poo will dissolve in the wash.
FORMULA
FED & SOLID POO:
Simply "plop" that poo into the toilet
and flush. *Did you know that even disposable diaper companies recommend that procedure as well?* Solid and thicker poo will not cling
to the fleece - a little residue is fine.
Roll up the diaper until you can get it to your diaper pail or
keep rolled until wash time.
GET
DIAPERS WASH READY:
Un-fasten and un-roll the diapers.
Slip the insert out and into the pail or wash.
Fasten the velcro tabs to the laundry tab so that
they do not snag on each other white in the wash.
Dump in the wsher.
WASH:
First run a cold rinse to loosen up and discard of
and poo remnants.
Add detergent - ONLY
ADD 1/2 - 1/4 THE RECOMMENDED AMOUNT FOR THE APPROPRIATE
SIZE LOAD.
Wash with a cold rinse.
Dry in dryer or hang dry (extends the life of your flannels especailly)...if
you can let them hang dry in the sun once in a while,
the sun will take out any discoloration that may have appeared over time.
DETERGENT!
There really is no right or wrong way to wash your diapers,
but there IS a right and wrong detergent.
It will benefit you to research your detergents carefully
and find one that will work best for you and your baby.
Not every detergent works well for everyone.
Sensitive skin and even your water type can make a difference.
Important to AVOID in detergents:
- Enzymes - may cause severe irritation (found in TIDE, etc)
- Fabric Softener - will make diapers less absorbent & cause repelling
- Brighteners - may cause irritation and also leave residue that will cause a stinky diaper
- Scents - may cause irritation, even on babies with no history of sensitive skin
