Not to mention super cute.
We started using cloth on B in March. I ordered 10 pockets and washed every night. I slowly built my stash and once J was born I ordered a ton of prefolds and cheap covers. One thing that I was afraid of was not wanting to stick with the wash routine. It was a little intimidating thinking about all of the laundry I would be doing with 2 little ones in diapers. It took a some getting used to but after a few weeks it just became a part of my every day routine. I'm going to share exactly what I do with our diapers. First, I got a small trash can to store my dirty diapers until wash day. Once soiled I knock off any solids in the toilet then throw in the pail. I usually end up washing every 1-2 days just depending on how I feel. This is what I do:
Prewash with cold water - to get the ickys out
Cold wash/rinse with 2tspns of Rockin Green Hard Rock
Hot wash/rinse with 2tspn of Rockin Green
Extra cold rinse
If I get stinkies I do a couple extra rinses, if that doesn't help then I use some vinegar and that seems to do the trick. It's really simple.
Another intimidating part of cloth..... prefolds. I'll have a post on that later! :)
