How do you clean these diapers after a poop?

Same way as clothes that get poop on them? Toss them or I would try to get as much off as possible, then hand wash in the tub (then sanitize the tub... Yuck!), then washing machine. I would always double up with a disposable and this when my boys didn't have a BM before we went to the pool for that reason. Just in case.

wash like you would a cloth diaper. use a diaper sprayer/bidet to hose it off or just dunk it in the toilet to rinse it off and put it in the regular wash. just make sure to wash your hands really well :)

I held it over the toilet and shook or dipped it in the toilet water and agitated. Then I washed it in the machine.

Wet wipes. I only clean it after my son wets his pants. I have used both Pampers wipes and Clorox wipes on it. Either one of them works well. Then I just use a sheet of dry paper towel to wipe the mattress dry. Let it air our for a few hours, then it's good to go. Hope this helps! This mattress is water proof, so it actually doesn't require much cleaning.

I keep an old fashion sugar dispenser (Glass with a metal lid. The kind that shakes out sugar) filled with baking soda by the diaper pail. I sprinkle that in between dirty diapers and it really cuts down on the odor.

Very easy, wash them in a little dish soap and warm water...rinse thoroughly and let dry before using again. I also recommend washing before first use as well, to remove the chemicals and slight odor.

Just use real newborn diapers or make a cloth diaper, way cheaper. I have a leftover pack of NB diapers that I saved for my daughter to use on her dolls. I turn the monkey off without taking the diaper off, I just push it down a bit.

I went to Menards and purchased 18 inches of their astro turf indoor outdoor carpet, and then cut them to the size of the pet Zoom or potty parks that I have and use regularly. I put them into a pillow case and throw them in the washer, but I don't dry them, I let them air dry. They stay more intact, and the washer cleans them thoroughly. For every day I just pick up the poop with paper towels, and dump the pee in the toilet from the tray. I spray the mat with 1/2 strength vinegar then with plain water to remove the residue. but the Washer really cleans them well, and doesn't destroy them.

I will take the liners out of the diapers but wash them all in the same load of wash. That way I know both parts are getting clean.

They have been holding up great in the washing machine. I've used it on delicates, regular, and sanitize. For pooey diapers, I pull out the poo, spray the diaper with stain remover, and toss is in washing mashine. The whole process is surprisingly easy.

You'll need to prep them first. Wash in hot at least 3 times, drying between each time. That gets most of the natural oils out (that you need to keep away from your microfiber). The prepping can be done with other non-diaper laundry if you want. After that, you can wash them with the rest of your diapers and inserts just fine.

I just wash them with my cloth diapers. I use Rockin' Green detergent. I will say that I used them as a barrier to protect the diapers from diaper cream and over time the liners became water repellant. I stripped them but it didn't help. Now when we need to use heavy duty, (not cloth diaper safe) cream I use flushable liners. I still use the reusable ones otherwise though.

Soak in water with laundry soap and squeeze several times to make sure the diaper absorbs the water and soap mixture. Let sit several hours and hang to dry in the hot sun.

I use the Planetwise bag liner. I just throw it in the wash with the diapers.

I shake the big stuff off in the trash the rest comes off in the wash. I don't use any fabric softener to keep them absorbent.

Poo hasn't been difficult to remove at all and I don't use a liner. Neither does my daughter with hers. All I did to break them in was to run them through a sanitary cycle on my washer. If you don't have that cycle on yours then I believe the directions say to wash 5 times. I dry them on a low setting on my dryer too. My daughter's diapers are the kinds with the inserts, but I like these better There are two flaps that lay down in the diaper that are attached so you don't have to fool with removing and sticking the insert back in

Hi, I do wash the diapers after each use, but if youre baby only pee and the cover isn´t wet you can use it again. I love Alva diapers!! and I use them with charcoal bamboo inserts and they are just perfect!!!

I put mine through a cold rinse, like all urine-contaminated items, to ensure that I don't set the odor. (Probably an excessive caution - I don't remember doing that with diapers forty years ago!) Then I wash them in warm water, put in the dryer briefly at low temperature (with other laundry, or with clean dry towels) to remove excess moisture (they do hold a lot!), then lay out flat to finish drying. However, I have forgotten to take them out of the dryer sometimes, and they seem to be just fine.
