How do you get the poop stains out?

habsoilers

Is there some secret to getting poop stains out of baby's clothes? Maybe I'm a laundry dummy but when DD has a blowout, I can't get the stains out of her sleepers and onesies. I keep hearing that BF poop is "water soluble" which I thought meant that it would be easy to get out. I'm using Shout on the stains and washing with Tide Free. I was hoping to start CDing next week but now I don't know.

 

What are you using to get the stains out?

Oxyclean

I spray Shout on her clothes for poop and spit up. Works so far...

I should add that I spray it as soon as it happens not after it has dried.

Oxyclean has worked on anything either of our girls have ever had on their clothes - formula, poop, etc.  If it's a really tough one, I'll spray on the oxyclean, then follow it with shout gel.  On top of that, I put a scoop of powdered oxyclean in every load of their clothes... just for good measure, in case I missed something.

I've been using the Dreft spray and it's always worked for me.

I immediately prewash them.  I run them under cold water and just use some mild soap.  Then off in the wash they go.

Good question!  I've had to throw so many onesies away because her poop stains will not come out unless I wash them right away.

ditto pp...I pre-wash and soak them in Dreft...then usually wash them with Dreft, Tide and add a bit of OxyClean into the wash.

?I also add some vinegar to get the wierd smell out...?

i usually soak the clothes immediately and put detergent directly on the spot.

Oxiclean is just hydrogen peroxide, you can try some of that.  Dont' know if it works on clothes, luckily we never have blow outs because of cloth diapers, but I put my cloth diapers in the sun for a few hours and it gets rid of all the poop stains.

Rinse off the offending matter (poop), pre-treatment with Dreft stain spray.  I use Dreft detergent add the Oxyclean and I have had no trouble with anything so far.  You can't let it sit though...you have to get it right into the wash.

once you wash it hang it in the sun to dry (aka sunning)

I rinse the clothes out, put them in the washer then scrub them with just plain tide laundry detergent ( i use a nail brush) and then pop them back in the wash. I ruined so many cute onesies trying out all kinds of crazy concoctions, but in the end tide did the trick.  I also tried tide sticks and stuff like that, but just plain detergent works best.

I swear by Zout too.  It is amazing stuff.  I also add a scoop of oxyclean to each load of laundry for the spit-up stains.

I swear by the Dreft spray! Just rinse out and spray the spot, works every time!
