I just started CD'ing my DS since I bought a LOT of diapers and built up a stash for DS 2 that's on the way. We only used 2 diapers yesterday and 2 today b/c of daycare but tomorrow will be using cd's all day. How many days can the stinky pee diapers sit in the pail? I was surprised how much WORSE pee diapers smell in cloth compared to sposies...whew that is a strong smell! haha
Re: So you just let the stinky pee diapers sit in the pail until you're ready to wash them all?
I wash every other or every third day (I went a little longer today since I washed mid-morning on Saturday.)
I don't really notice the diapers smelling that much, to be honest. Our pail is usually open -- I only notice it if it's got some poopy diapers in it.
I wouldn't leave them too long, you don't want to have anything, uh, grow.
Don't let them go more than two days. But they really shouldn't smell terribly unless they've been sitting a while (or you're maybe talking about an overnight dipe). Did you buy these new? If not, i would suspect some build up/ammonia problems.

BFP #2 8/27/13 ~ EDD 5/8/14 ~ Natural MC 9/18/13 at 6 weeks, 6 days
BFP#3 3/28/14 ~ EDD 12/7/14 ~ DD Born 11/21/14
BFP#4 6/15/17 ~ EDD 2/20/18
i wash every 4 days and don't have any problems...
i'd be worried if it were an amonia smell then you might want to strip them. especially since they came to you used, but if it's just a regular old pee smell that's fine...
