Pre-wash help pleeeeease :)

[BabyHaines]

Right, am going away tomorrow for the night, so need lots of nappies - however, most of mine are wet as have been strip washing and am struggling to get stuff dry
This morning, the postie bought my new Flip day pack - yippee!! But if I prewash them, they won't dry in time
Any ideas??xx

 

[twiggy56]

disposable flip inserts is all i can think of...or if you're desperate the natural/diodegradable sposies...

Id bung them on radiators and put the heating on!

 

[BabyHaines]

I've prewashed them and are gonna shove them in the boiler cupboard!!

Grrrrrr - bloody weather!!

Get out the hair dryer!

btw- what does strip washing mean?

 

[BabyHaines]

lol @ getting out the hairdryer - it may well come to that!!

A strip wash is something you do to kind of 'refresh' your nappies. You can get a detergent build up over time which causes them to be less absorbant xx

and stinkier!

Oh yes - and stinkier!!
I put a few drops of Tea Tree in withmy last rinse & they smell soooo fresh now

Ooh okay. *laughs* Makes sense! so now I'm also going to ask.. How do you do a strip wash? (I'm having a hard enough time washing them with half detergent because I don't have enough nappies to wash as a load so I have to put them in with other things. So they'll probably need one before too long!)
