Is this normal? Re:Stink

I change the girls' diapers every two hours and they absolutely reek! I think my barn smells better than their diapers.

I use Kawaii and FBs and it seems like the Kawaii inserts are much stinkier. Is this normal?

That sounds a little stinkier than the norm to me. The only truly "stinky" we diaper we have is his overnight diaper.

Not normal.  What do they smell like?  Ammonia or barnyard-y?  What's your wash routine, inc detergent?

They smell like a barnyard.

I do about an hour cold soak, 2 Tbs Tide original powder on hot cycle, cold rinse, and every other wash, I do an extra cold rinse. I wash every day, too.

Try using more Tide. I use up to the 1 line on the scoop, which was recommended to me when I started using Tide.

I will try that, thanks! I have really hard water, too, if that makes a difference.
