Leaking at Leg Stitches (repost from June 2011)

butterfly62682 · November 2011

Some of my pockets have started leaking at the stitches in the legs. I have dried my diapers in the dryer for the last 5 months and only recently started hanging them out. It's probably between 5 - 10 of my diapers that are doing it.

Have I ruined my diapers? Could they just need stripping? Maybe the MF insert isn't absorbing fast enough?

The pul looks fine at the legs. No lifting or wrinkling. It looks like the rest of the diaper.

Please help me.

If it's leaking through the stitch holes, I would actually try resealing the PUL in the dryer. Give it 20 or 30 minutes on hot.

Yes they are leaking at the stitches. Could they just need to be resealed? Even though they are dried everytime except the last few?

I have no idea if it will work, but that's the easiest thing to try! Stripping with Dawn can't hurt, either, but if it's leaking through the stitches it's a PUL problem, not a buildup problem.
