Diaper Swappers

When washing AIO's or pockets, how many diapers is considered a full load?

I think I saw somewhere that it was between 16-24 diapers in another thread. Most of the time I wash every 2-3 days with my bgos and bg organics and have between 12-20 diapers. If I go 4 days it is too long and have to wash twice because of stinkies.

If we put more that in the washer is it too much? Or just do an extra rinse than with a smaller load

I normally wash about 14-16 diapers at once and haven't had any problem so far.

I wash around 24 per load in my top loader but have washed up to 30 if that is how many are dirty. No issues with that.

I have a large capacity top loader and this is also the limit of what it could handle. However, when I have a smaller load (like 12-14 diapers) I drop the water level for the wash cycle just to be sure the aggitation among the diapers is sufficient to get them really clean.

The more they rub each other in the wash the more yuck they get out.

For rinsing I like more water sometimes though and will up the amount for rinses.

I just did laundry yesterday I waited a day longer than I should have so it was the biggest load I have ever done. But they still came out as clean as always. No stink issues here. All I have are Kawaii, BG, and 4 Sunbaby and I use all MF inserts a regular BG size one and then a doubler in almos every dipaer, plus 1 pail liner and 2 medium wet bags and there were 33 diapers in yesterdays load. I have an HE very large capacity top loading machine though, if that makes any difference.

Hi - I just noticed we have similar names. I am Jamie Mikel, but a lot of people call me Jamie Lynn, not sure why. And I named my daughter Jeralynn.

I do maybe 10-14 with a large wet bag and smaller one too.
