Long story short... Used Tide on CDs and got a rash. Switched to A&H Sensitive Skin and it's been ok, but after about 2 weeks using it I've got horrible diaper stink and now DS has a welty-type red bottom. So, I'm looking to switch to something else that I can buy in the store. I get such conflicting info on using baking soda/vinegar, etc. in the wash to get rid of the stink. I'm not sure what to do!!!! And I'm not sure what's causing the welts. *sigh*
Re: Where to buy 7th Generation Delicate Care?
I just bought some today at our local Organic/Health food type of store.
I probably wouldn't use baking soda but I have done soaks in vinegar with moderate success. However, I finally had to go to a few cap fulls of bleach (gross, I know) every so often. I do it in the prewash so it's for sure washed out in the main hot wash.
i've gotten 7th Gen D.C. at Whole Foods and from Drugstore.com.
i now use a slosh of bleach in every first wash. TL washer. i start filling the add the bleach and detergent. once the washer is pretty full i add the dipes. it hasn't discolored my AIOs, but my fitteds are a little splotchy from adding the dipes too soon. i figure as long as the bleach is mega diluted it's fine.
