Washing Your Cloth Diapers
Do you think it's a messy job to handle all messy things done by your lil' ones?
Don't be. It's not that hard to handle this cd. I agree that handling DD is much more easier than CD, again, it's all about you conciousness about mother nature and value for money *wink*.
'I'm busy..have no time to handle all this stuff'
'I have sensitive skin...I can't even touch the detergent..how am I going to wash those cds?'
'No lah..DD is easier, what..take out and throw it into the bin..not easy meh?'
'Ya la..if you wash cd..no need to use money ka? water consumption lagi..sabun lagi..'
*Just some comments from others when they heard about this CD things.
Here's how you can manage your CDs:
1. Use nappy liners to protect the inner of cds.. less stains, less rubbing on cds- less energy to use, right?
2. Throw all the ' big stuff' done by your lil' ones or just spray with water into the toilet bowl.
Recommended to spray all the used cds after each changing to prolong the cd's life.
3. Hang your cds (recommended for bamboos' or organic cd) or out it in a pail until laundry time.
4. You can use washing machine to wash those cds. BUT make sure you're using the right detergent. No enzyme, no softener. You can refer to this list of detergent that suitable for cloth diapers. Oh..you can wash with hot water too but check your manufacturing tag on the cd first. I always wash mine with hot water (30 deg. temp).
5. Wash cds in full load..that means, wash it when you have more cds..to be more efficient rather than wash 4-5 cds. This way, you can save on energy, water and detergent consumptions.
6. Recommended to wash cds in every 2 days.. Some may keep it lil' longer.
Why I need to hang my bamboo/organic cds?
Because bamboo cds are made of organic material and prolong soak with urine can shortened its life span.
