Question by tIgErFaCe2002: What brand of unisex disposable training pants work best?
I am beginning potty training with my 22 month old daughter. I also have a son that still wears pull ups at night. They are both about the same weight right now, and he isn’t much taller than she is. (He is 5 but was born premature weighing only 1.5 lbs and doctors are looking into why his growth is so slow.) I’ve always used White Cloud Brand on him for at night and right now I am using up some Pampers Easy Ups for her that a friend gave to me. I am looking for a unisex brand that I can use on both kids after I have used up what I already have. I would really be convient to just buy one package of pull ups rather than two different ones. The only brand that I’ve seen is the one at Dollar General but they never worked that well on my son. Does anyone else know any other brands? In stores or online?
I’m not looking for a regular diaper. My son does get up sometimes at night to go. And I don’t use pull ups durring the day except for times like long car trips. For her I am using regular cotton panties with plastic covers.

I would get a pull-up that would work for her during the day if you want to use the pull-up diapers, then at night since they may need the extra protection for all night, use regular diapers for the both of them. You can buy the diapers in bulk to save $$, gets the extra protection needed at night. I still diaper my 5 yr old son in the pampers size 7 cruisers and they work great.

Question by skunkaperecords: Best method to clean feces off of toddler underwear?
We are potty training our son. What would you say is the best method of removing his feces off of his toddler underwear (not diapers)? I don’t want to contaminate my washing machine with fecal matter. Any ideas? Pre-wash them in the sink first? Wash them by hand with gloves on?

Thanks!

How Do I Wash Cloth Diapers?

——————————————————————————–

Dear Catherine;
I know I want to use cloth diapers on my baby, who will be born very soon. How do I find a diaper service,? Are the diaper services more expensive than disposable diapers? If I can’t find one in my city, how hard will it be to wash my own?

In the 1950’s, diaper services flourished. Now, because of “disposable” single-use diapers, the larger cities and their suburbs are often the only areas with diaper services. Check your Yellow Pages book under Diaper or Diaper Services. Diaper Services are much more expensive than home laundering, but usually less expensive than “disposable” single-use diapers. Many parents find the added convenience of clean, fresh diapers arriving on their door-step each week worth the extra cost. For the early weeks, and for parents without washing machines – this is often an ideal solution.

Washing diapers at home is actually quite simple. This is a very detailed description. Initially it may sound complex, but you’ll soon find it routine.

1. Shake “poop” into toilet. Rinse “poopy” diapers in toilet bowl. You can use a Diaper Duck or rubber gloves will help keep your hands clean.
2. Collect soiled or wet diapers in a plastic pail with no liquid added, or (only if you prefer) in a solution of water mixed with 1/4 cup of vinegar, Borateem®, Borax or Ivory Snow® Liquid. This can help control odours and staining. Do not soak your diaper covers in this though, as it can ruin their waterproofness.
3. When ready to wash, if you’ve been soaking your diapers – drain excess solution into toilet. Use your spin cycle to drain the diapers of any remaining solution. Otherwise, or in addition, run your diapers through a cold wash /cold rinse presoak cycle – if you have this setting on your washing machine. For optimum cleanliness, wash only 24 diapers in an average load.
4. Then, use HOT wash and COLD rinse with high water level. If rashes are a problem, try a double rinse to remove detergent or soap residues. Use a mild soap or detergent with no phosphates, and a minimum of additives.
5. Dry in dryer on high heat for an average of 60 minutes to help sterilization. Drying in direct sunlight is also an excellent method, and it helps wonderfully with getting rid of stains.
6. Some parents like to add washing soda, vinegar or borax to the wash to keep diapers white, and to help sterilize them. Some parents prefer to boil diapers for 10 minutes once in a while, especially after a bout of diarrhea, or a yeast infection, to help prevent rash and provide optimum sterilization. But this is absolutely NOT necessary on a regular basis or for all babies.
