Cloth Diapering

Yeast and CD

My son has a yeast infection.  After trying to treat it at home, he's in disposables until we can get in under control with a stronger cream.

I see a fair amount of contradictory advice about disinfecting CDs after a yeast infection.  What's worked for you?  (we use FB pockets)

Thanks

Re: Yeast and CD

  • I also use FB pockets. On clean diapers i used 1/4 cup bleachin a hot wash ( I turned up my water heater to make sure it was hot enough to kill yeast. ) I also added quite a few drops of tea tree oil. I haven't had a problem since.

    This may be a silly question but did you do the bleach and the tea tree oil in the same wash or separately?
