Cloth Diapering

First CD Wash

We are new to CD (well new to babies in general! Smile) and we have started our building our stash. I have not washed the diapers yet and plan to start in the next month or so. We mainly have new diapers and a few used. For the new diapers (Bumgenius 4.0 and Best Bottoms), it was recommended to wash 5-6 times. My questions is, do you use the detergent for each wash? Or just for one or two and then use hot water for the rest?

 

Thank you!

  • You're BG's just need one wash and their ready to go.  I'm not sure about the Best Bottoms.  Check their web page.

     

  • Best Bottoms you only need to wash once too.
    I have a couple and I love em!

  • Yep, only one wash for those diapers. If you get any that are made with organic materials, those ones you will want to wash 5 times with detergent to remove the oils in the natural fibers.
