do you always add dawn to wash if diaper came in contact with diaper cream?

I want to do this correctlty, can dawn in wash damage the diapers at all?

my cds have come in contact with aquaphor and desitin a number of times and I have not done anything differently and they work just fine.  I know that this is not true for everyone though but I would only do it to fix a problem, not prevent.

do you use natural fabric or synthetic?  I am using fuzzibunz with fleece so I don't know if that will cause more of an issue.

i use both, my pockets are mostly FB's and I have not had any problems.  I don't know if its a combination of detergent, washing machine, # of rinses, etc... and I should jinx myself but I've done a lot of things "wrong" and not had issues.  If you are worried and haven't washed the diaper yet, I would do a couple extra rinse cycles before doing the dawn thing.

you only use dawn if you need to strip
