Cloth Diapering

Started solids... yikes! How do you scrape them off?

So we had our first post-solids diaper yesterday. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! But... how in the world do you scrape the solids into the toilet? I used wipes, but ended up using so many that I might as well have used a disposable diaper. What do you use to get the solids off?

  • Some folks use a spatula.  We have a diaper sprayer.

  • I ended up going with disposable liners for that in between stage, made life much easier and less messy!  Now that she is fully on solids they just fall off the diaper into the toliet so we don't have to use anything

    It's a lifesaver!

  • I've never had to scrap, but I have heard many use a plastic knife and just keep it by the toilet.

  • We use the disposable liners and just started cereal the other day - so far so good.  Anything that doesn't get caught by that goes down the slop sink drain and is followed by some bleach.  We can't flush the liners with our plumbing system so we just toss them.

    Do you use liners with every diaper? My LO only poops every couple days.

    Sorry - I haven't been on in awhile.  LO poops once, sometimes twice a day - so yes, every diaper. But, I've noticed when we use the Rumparooz without a liner she does not have any redness whatsoever, with the GroVia + liner, there's a little redness.  I just bought a poop sprayer a few weeks ago so I've been using that as well. I think I'm going to stop with the liners for a while as I think that is what's irritating her skin.
