Cloth Diapering

Yeast?

DS got a yeast infection about a month ago and went into disposables for 2 weeks while we used his prescription cream. Everything cleared up after a few days. I stripped all his cloth diapers and ran even more hot washes than normal and after a day in his cloth his has a worse rash than before. In a year, we have never had a single rash. Any suggestions?

Re: Yeast?

  • Did you use any bleach or grapefruit seed extract on the diapers? If you didn't disinfect, it is likely that the yeast was never out of the CD. 

    Some people have good results with GSE, but bleach will almost definitely knock it out immediately.

  • do you use color safe bleach and how much v(i have a front loader). do you do a load with the whole dipe or just inserts? we arent having the issue with our natural fiber dipes.
