Just tell me what detergent you use, and where you buy it.

Issues, issues, issues. I cannot wait to get some Tiny Bubbles, but for now the Allens Naturally and the CC are not cutting it.

    Country Save powder detergent.

    Bought it locally from a health food store. CS's website said they carried it (I used their online store locator).

    If worse comes to worse then I would try Tide. It works. It's not the best for the environment but it works.

    I was using Gain until I found it is a no no.  I tried All F&C and got stinky diapers immediately.  Switched to Tide regular HE liquid and have no problems.

    My cousin owns a CD store and recommends Charlie's Soap  

    www.charliesoap.com

    its a lot cheaper than tide and other brands and you can use it for your own laundry, for baby, and its recommended for cloth diaper washing too.

    Our local CD place recommends it too but I've heard it can cause really bad reactions and if I remember right it doesn't get great ratings for use on diapers.

    really? Where did you hear that? I'm new to this (baby isn't even born yet!) so I am still open to recommendations. I know of 3 CD companies that recommend and carry Charlies. I am going to start washing our clothing with it, so I will let you know if I notice any reactions!

    We use Charlie's for everything and buy it from Sunshine diapers - they have free shipping and big discount if you buy 4 bags at once.  Oh, and no rashes or other reactions here!

    we were using country save for DD's clothes and diapers but she started to get a rash (diaper and body) so we just switched to tiny bubbles and we love it. we bought it from kellys closet.

    Here is a quote from Pinstripes & Polka Dots:

    Personal Note: There is great controversy over this detergent.    Fact is: some (not all) babies have a severe skin reaction to this detergent.

    Manufacturers Note: "We have found that by following proper procedures with our detergents... we have remedied nearly all the problems. We know there can be a problem with hard water with our detergents" -Charlie Sutherland
