I read Charlie Soap causes rash is some and with raiden being so sensitive I was afraid. I can get Country Save off Amazon in bulk so I'm considering it. <br /><br />Can you get tea tee oil at Walmart? I have a wipes warmer but wasn't going to start using it until the new baba getts herebecause we don't use mant wipes now and I was worried about mildew. <br /><br />I think ones we get the deter worked out I think we will be fine at night. It's good to know about the redness bc he does clear up by next change.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02325949939442428964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442687964382520474.post-73150181634495779482011-02-12T09:30:10.972-08:002011-02-12T09:30:10.972-08:00Hello!

You know The Eco Chic just did a series of posts on her washing regime and cloth wipes. <br />They can be found here:<br /><a href="http://www.theecochic.com/2011/02/10/cloth-diaper-laundry-dos-and-donts-part-1-picking-a-detergent/" rel="nofollow">Cloth Diaper Laundry Do's and Don'ts</a><br />and<br /><a href="http://www.theecochic.com/2011/01/24/day-14-30-reasons-to-love-cloth-diapers/" rel="nofollow">Going All The Way With Cloth Wipes</a><br /><br />For me, I use only Charlie's soap for cloth diapers because it has no enzymes which can cause buildup and stink. Most of the other cloth diaper mamas I know use either Rockin' Green or Charlie's.<br /><br />For a cloth wipes, I use a solution of water, Dr. Bronner's peppermint castille soap (can find at nearly any store, even Target now), and about 8 drops of tea tree oil to 4 cups of water. Sometimes I add aloe vera concentrate if I have it. I dip the dry wipes in the solution, wring them out, and fold them up into a wipes warmer where they stay until I use them. The tea tree oil prevents mildew and is antibacterial.<br /><br />At night, I use BumGenius All-in-One pocket 3.0 or 4.0's and I stuff them with 1 microfiber insert, 1 hemp/cotton blend insert, and one organic prefold. It's really fat but it keeps him dry most of the time (unless he sleeps with his butt in the air, which can cause gaps in the elastic around his legs). He is a little red in the morning but it goes away immediately when I change him. The ammonia smell from overnight diapers is normal - it's what all urine would smell like but disposables use chemicals to mask the smell. It should come out in the wash, if it doesn't I would examine the detergent you're using and perhaps strip the diapers and try a new one....<br /><br />Good luck!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11551272984388114722noreply@blogger.com
