Those that bleach...

I'm thinking about just bleaching it all... since LO's rash just isn't clearing and I'm thinking there may be some yeast there. 

How much bleach do you use and when do you add it?

    I use 1/4 cup in the hot wash cycle.  Double rinse.

    Ditto 1/4 c, but I add mine in the dispenser.  If you don't have a dispenser, fill your washer and add the bleach, then agitate, and THEN add your diapers.

    I use 1/4 cup.

    I fill machine, add bleach, let agitate for a minute then toss clean diapers in. I usually just do it after a normal cycle.

    I do have a bleach dispenser but it doesn't seem to work all that well for me.

     What is your routine for stripping and bleaching at the same time? Do you add the dawn and bleach at the same time? I guess it can't hurt to strip the diapers as well as bleach at this point. I want to do everything possible to prevent his rash from reoccurring.

    Also, regarding rinses--I rinse 'til I smell no more bleach (I'm thinking it's about 3-4 rinses? Not sure--I always strip and bleach at the same time, and I'm rinsing a bunch to get the suds out from the dawn).
