Cloth Diapering

Simplex

I'm assuming I need to wash these several times to get them set for use (since the inserts are cotton). Also, do the inserts actually work themselves out in the wash? Or am I better off just pulling them out before the wash.

Re: Simplex

  • Mine sometimes don't agitate out in my TL.  I washed once and used and have never had a leak (I think they say just to wash once, so I did) but I figured it has probably been getting more absorbent each time I wash it.  It's never leaked.
  • Mine always work themselves out, and I usually wash at least 3 times before use.

    I only washed once, and haven't had a problem. My medium and large tongues will agitate out. However, my newborns don't always. I usually pull them out.

  • I usually just wash once with a load of towels. We usually use them with the fleece side out, so they are already out when we put them in the diaper bin.
  • Thanks for the info.

    I also notice they don't fit until 12 pounds. He's only 10 pounds right now.

    The monkey one is too cute so I might have to. However, my guy has pretty skinny legs and hips so I won't be disappointed if it fails.

  • Ours fit before 12 lbs.
  • Mine have always agitated out. Sometimes the whole diaper turns inside out. I think I only washed mine once to prep them.

  • I stuff mine with a newborn prefold for overnight and it always agitates out.  I wash about 3 times before using.
