Fluffy Fridays!

I am wanting to start linking up with blog hops every Friday. More specifically "Fluffy" blog hops. Meaning, cloth diaper related posts! SO this Friday (tomorrow) I would like to feature our Happy Heinys cloth diapers. Milies has a great in stock collection of brights for Happy Heinys. They come in aplix and snaps and are One Size. These are gorgeous diapers and come with TWO inserts! I know I like the fact that they are a small business, made in the USA, and started by a WAHM!

Cloth Diaper Laundry Day

Most of you probably wonder what to do when it comes to laundering your dirty fluff! It's super easy, and really friends, there is no need for a cloth diaper laundry service. You can save so much money by laundering your own cloth diapers from home. After all, the main reason we cloth diaper is to save money as well as to be green AND maybe ;) because of the ADORABLE colors and prints.

What you will need:

Cloth diaper friendly laundry detergent

Yourself of course :)

Washing Machine

Dryer OR if you want to save even MORE money...a laundry line outside (remember that the sun is a natural stain remover!)

Steps:

1. I would recommend washing no more that a couple dozen diapers together. Remember to use the laundry tabs if using aplix/velcro closure. COLD RINSE cycle (this loosens up all the yuckies)

2. HOT WASH/COLD Rinse: Use the recommended amount of cloth diaper friendly detergent.

3. ONE MORE Cold Rinse

4. LINE Dry covers as they tend to wear more if you dry in the dryer. I put all my inserts in the dryer BUT if it's nice and warm outside my inserts will be outside sunning!

That's it!

Some people ask how to get the poo off of the diaper before washing. Here are some tips:

If you are exclusively breastfeeding there is no need to rinse, srub, swish, etc... the diaper before you put it in the wash machine.

If you are using formula and/or solids you can either buy a diaper sprayer or use the conventional method of using a rubber scrapper (which is what I use) to get the solids off the diaper.

Ruby Moon Natural Cloth Diaper Detergent

I am not sure how I first heard of Ruby Moon Laundry Soap. I'm guessing it's from my many blog reads and giveaway entries that I've made. Any how, Ruby Moon offers an amazing variety of natural diaper friendly and clothing friendly laundry detergent. They have an array of wonderful and fun scents like, cucumber melon and warm vanilla sugar! Guess what...Milies happens to carry FIVE amazing scents which are all in stock.



Ruby Moon Natural Cloth Diaper Laundry Detergent really gets the stink out of those diapers (Trust us we have a messy 26 month old DS). This laundry detergent will not build up on your diapers and they make them smell SO yummy. If you are scared of the scents, Milies does carry unscented detergent from Ruby Moon as well. With a great price of $10.95 for 45 loads and 90 loads with an HE washer it beats the competitor's prices.
