Diaper Swappers

gidget27 · 01-30-2012, 02:47 PM

So far I've been EBFing and have not worried about putting poopy diapers straight in the wash. Now, however, I've had to start supplementing with formula. Not much, 3-4 oz. a day. Should I be doing anything different when washing?

Nope.

Yeah, my ds gets formula every now and then if I don't get to pump enough at work and he still has the bm poos.

Nope, nothing different. Same prewash, hot wash with detergent, and a couple rinses.

Just make sure you rinse it before throwing it in the wash.

I formula fed and never did anything special. It all came out in the wash exactly like breastmilk poop did.

I actually never rinse (I do a prewash) and everything comes out clean.

My DD has 1-2 bottles of formula during the week b/c I can't pump enough. We keep our same routine and everything has been fine.
