Silly Question About Washing Wet Bag

This is probably a stupid question, but do you wash your wet bag every time you wash your diapers?

I feel like it makes sense to, but I don't know if the bag is designed to stand up to that much washing (I have a Bumkins wet/dry bag). So far, it's held up ok, but I don't want to have to replace it sooner than I have to. 

I'm probably over thinking this, I know!

TIA!

  • Yup. Wash it inside out each time. Buy another so you can alternate

  • The only time I don't wash my wet bag is if it's the little one that goes in the diaper bag and has only held a pee diaper for a very short amount of time. My big everyday bags get wayyyyyyy too stinky to not wash every time.

  • I have PlanetWise wet bags and pail liners and we rarely wash them.  We just hang them up between uses.  We have two of each so one is always hang drying while the others are in use.  We haven't had any stink issues at all.

  • I always wash, but I also always make sure to hang dry.

    I definitely wash every time - they always get poop on them from dirty inserts and diapers going in there, plus wet ones and they would get smelly if not washed regularly. We always hang dry, and I alternate wet bags, so each one is only getting washed every 5-6 days. They seem to be holding up fine, but we've only been using them for 8 months.
