Diaper Swappers

Minniebees · 06-07-2006, 11:21 AM

My 3 year old apparantly has a tummy bug and pooped in her night-time diaper last night. You can imagine how much loose stool can come out of a kid this age. I don't even want to touch it. I'm contemplating letting it rinse out in the washer, and then running a cycle (empty) with bleach to clean the washer out. Has anyone done this?

i do it all the time...actually my washing machine has a soaking cycle and i do that then i run it again and use it like a wet pail until the bug is over...i don't bother with the bleach, i'm sure its fine, and if anything is left over it will sanitize in the dryer
