Does anyone wash their diapers NOT in a washer?

I had a sitter today who also CDs her daughter.  She washed all Ryder's dirty diapers in a pail and said she used her nails to get the poop off. (I use liners so there probably wasnt much poo, but this still got to me).  I keep thinking about it. I'm going to throw them in with my diapers tomorrow and wash again anyway.  What do you guys think?

    She washed your dips? I would rewash or if they look and smell clean at least a rinse to make sure all the soap is out.

    When my mom CD'd me she would wash my diapers in the tub every few days then would go to the laundromat on the weekend.  I mean what do you think they did when they HAD to CD babies and didn't have washing machines?

    I would definitely rewash.  Even in a washer, I don't trust anyone to wash my diapers, the cleaning lady knows to stay away from them.  I definitely wouldn't trust a handwash.

    At my family baby shower my great aunt told me how she used to wash diapers on a washboard and tub.  I'm not sure if it was her younger sibling's diapers or her kids.  Regardless, she wasn't too excited for me to be using cloth. lol

    I guess the sitter was trying to be helpful?  I'd just rewash them per your normal routine.

    Yes she was trying to be helpful.  This is how she washes her daughters diapers every day also.  One at a time.  She said she has never had any smell issues (I am queen of ammonia Lol)  and she used Dreft, which I didnt think was CD safe

    I'd probably re-wash. I don't have any particular reasoning behind doing so. I just think I would.
