What do you do?

When there is no sun to get out those little stains?

Most of my nappies have slight markings on them when they come out of the machine but are spotless within a few minutes of being hung on the line in the sun. The sun has gone AWOL so not sure what to do instead!

I don't think it needs to be direct sunlight to work

So if I put them on the windowsill on a cloudy day do you think that would still shift it? x

i dont know if the window sill will work on a cloudy day but i always hang mine out on a cloudy day, works brill! Ive used the window sill on a sunny day but i also used it on a cloudy day and it didnt really work as well, depends how light the stain is, worth having a go, but i would just hang them out directly
I always have stains too no matter what washing technique i use i hope it will change after weaning

It's all that orange/yellow poo

Thanks ladies, I'll give a few different things a go! x

The window sill does work - it just takes a bit longer!

We definitely get less stains now he's eating some solids, it's not runny anymore yay! I have used a window sill before but just daylight outside works well too.

Ok so call me naive...But would it be a problem to use whitening stain remover if you washed them a few times after wards before baby wore them?

 

[Dopeyjopey]

I think some people use a vanish bar on stains, not sure though. I just prefer sunlight as it's chemical free!
