Cloth Diapering

washing toddler and newborn CDs

So #2 is due any day now and I have my newborn stash re-washed and ready to go. My 2 year old isn't really potty trained yet though so I am still doing 3ish loads of his diapers a week. Can I wash the newborn dipes with the toddler dipes? I was trying to figure out logistics on keeping one wetbag or two going. I pre-rinse DS1 poopy dipes before dumping them in the bags, but I wouldn't be doing that with the new one if I am able to exclusively BF again. Just wondering what other CD moms with 2 in diapers do and if there is any reason why I can't or shouldn't co-mingle their diapers.

  • I would wash all together. Just keep in mind that larger loads likely means more frequent washing.

    Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
    It all revolves around you.
  • My 2nd is due any day now, I was going to wash all together, I did set up two changing stations though, one on each floor.

  • DD2 is potty trained during the day but still needs a diaper overnight. I wash them all together. I did find that I need to soak DD2's overnight diapers in hot water with a little detergent. Otherwise I was finding my newborn's diapers were getting clean but my preschoolers weren't. I wash every other day.

  • I'm due with #2 in less than a month. DD is nowhere near the potty training stage. I'm planning to wash all the diapers together. Yeast would be the only thing that might cause an issue. If one LO has a yeast rash, you would probably want to treat all the diapers just to be safe.

    This is what we did, and I was doing a load a day in the beginning. I hang mine to dry so I had to keep up that way. I washed them all together
