Cuddlebug cloth

Cuddlebug cloth

Make sure you rinse your diapers thoroughly.
Do not use microfiber against babies skin.
The magical sun will take all the stains out.
Pins are NOT as scary as you think
Do not use bleach or fabric softener (including dryer sheets) on your diapers
Use doublers for heavy wetters and for overnight protection
Diaper sprayers and cloth wipes are wonderful too!
WET PAIL AND DRY PAIL METHODS
There are 3 basic methods for storing wet and soiled cloth diapers,
wet pail, dry pail and wet/dry pail.
Dry pail.
All cloth diapers are placed in a covered pail.
Sprinkle baking soda to control the odors.
Wet pail.
All cloth diapers are placed in a pail half filled with water.
Make sure this pail is covered to prevent infant drowning.
The preferred method is the dry pail method.
Simply dunk dirty diapers (and swish if necessary)
in the toilet bowl before tossing in the dry pail.
Keep your diaper pail in the bathroom for easy access.
REMOVING URINE SMELL
Include baking soda when washing or soaking your cloth diapers.
If you use baking soda in the wash or soak,
make sure to use vinegar in the rinse,
This will help restore the pH of the cloth diapers.
Otherwise your baby may end up with diaper rash.
VINEGAR IN THE WASH
Many parents have complained that using vinegar in the wash
leaves their diapers remaining smelly.
Actually it is more effective to use baking soda
in the wash and add vinegar to the rinse.
I put a brand-new Cuddlebug Cloth diaper on my baby
and it didn't seem very absorbent.
Why am I having trouble?
Microfiber along with other diaper fabrics
need several good hot washes/dries before reaching initial absorbancy.
After the first 4-ish washes you should have a good starting absorbency.
With continued use and wash, you'll find absorbency picks up
considerably and fairly quickly.
