| Frequently Asked Questions What about poops? Babies who are exclusively breastfed have poops that are easily washed away in the washing machine, so no extra steps are necessary. However, babies who are formula-fed or who are eating solid foods will have larger poops. Simply shake the solids in the toilet and “scrape” off any excess with toilet paper. If you find this is too messy, you can try using a Fuzzi Bunz Diaper Sprayer, which makes poop cleanup a breeze! How often should I wash my diapers? Diapers should be washed at least every other day if possible to prevent stink and urine buildup. What kind of laundry detergent should I use? We recommend Rockin' Green Cloth Diaper Detergent for your cloth diapers and your everyday laundry. However, any laundry soap that contains no additives, perfumes, dyes, or brighteners will be safe for your diapers. What about wipes? DiaperVine mamas generally use cloth wipes with their cloth diapers. Thirsties makes super cute wipes that can be stored in a regular wipes container or in a wipe warmer and tossed in your diaper pail. These wipes can be used with plain water or with a spray cleaner for a squeaky clean hiny! How should I clean my diapers? Diapers can be stored in a dry diaper pail and washed every other day. There are many different opinions on how to best clean your diapers, but DiaperVine recommends that you first wash diapers in cold water using 1/2 of the recommended detergent. You should then wash the diapers a second time with 1/2 of the recommended detergent, hot water and an extra rinse. Line drying your diapers will help them last longer, but they can go in the dryer in a pinch. If you have any questions about cleaning your diapers, please contact us for additional instructions or troubleshooting. How many diapers do I need? We suggest having enough diapers to last 2-3 days. For a newborn, you will probably need about 21 diapers. For an older baby, you can get by with fewer diapers, but we recommend at least 18 in order to avoid washing every day.
