Re: Poll: What do you do with dirty diapers?

  • We ditched the Diaper Genie a few months ago, it just wasn't cutting it anymore with toddler poop.

    Ours go straight in the kitchen trash. For the poopy ones, if the trashcan isn't full I'll put it in a scented diaper bag thing, but I have environmental guilt over that. I end up taking the kitchen trash out a lot more frequently than I used to.

  • We have a diaper genie in her room.  Pee diapers go in there.  Most of the time it's only the one that she's worn overnight b/c I rarely change her in her room.

    Other pee diapers will go in either the bathroom trash can (when I take her diaper off for her bath) or the kitchen trashcan throughout the day.  Poopy diapers immediately go in the trashcan outside.

  • diaper genie, but not that brand.
  • Pee ones go in the kitchen trash, for poopy ones, we have a flip-lid can right outside the garage door we put those in.
  • If they are just wet, they go in either the kitchen or bathroom garbage.  If its a poopy one, it goes right to the outside garbage.
  • Pee goes in the kitchen garbage and poop right outside to the outside garbage!!!
  • pee ones go in a trash thing in her room that i take out every night (i reuse target bags for the liner) and the poop ones go straight out.
  • we toss pee and poopie diapers in our bathroom. The really stinky ones go straight outside.
  • Ours all go straight outside. Pee diapers smell like cheerios when they sit too long and DH loves Cheerios. So he prefers to not be smelling a diaper that smells like his breakfast. lol.

  • We're still rocking the Diaper Genie.  Although, you're right, it's not cutting it anymore.  We just end up emptying it a lot more often than we used to.
  • Kate mostly wears cloth diapers, so pee diapers go straight in the dry pail and poop gets plopped in the toilet before the diaper goes in the pail.  I actually do the same thing with disposables--dispose of the poop in the toilet and then the diaper can go in her Diaper Dekor.  You're suppose to flush all poop--it's better for the environment for it to go in the sewer than a landfill--so I treat disposables and cloth the same.
  • pee in the trash can and poopie diapers outside.
  • i love my diaper genie.  I use that alot because the bags that we use smell good.  where ever I change her diaper, that dirty diaper goes in that trash.  I only have  a diaper genie in her room.
  • We use the Diaper Champ but, if she poops, we flush the poop down the toilet before putting it in the pail.

  • we use cloth diapers. wet, I'll put in a wet bag in the bathroom until a run down (so long as there's no company). Poopy gets dunked in the toilet and then ran down to the pail in the laundry room... although sometimes I have just put it in the wetbag and taken down in bulk. Again, no guests expected.
  • Pee Pee diapers in the diaper champ.  Poo Poo diapers wrapped up in tin foil and put in a plastic bag and put in a trashcan in the garage.

    Are you serious?

  • Pee goes into any trash can poo goes outside!

    But not in tinfoil and a plastic bag first.  Huh?

  • Poop goes in the toilet. So the diaper pail only stinks when it's super full.

    When we went on a cruise last fall, our room steward even commented that our room never smelled like diapers and the trash didn't stink (which is usually a problem with a diapered baby in a tiny cruise ship room).

  • They go right into the trash... unless they're exceptionally stinky, and then they are put into a plastic bag and THEN thrown in the trash!
