I am about ready to pull my hair out because of this repelling fleece!! All of a sudden, our FBs (which we're currently using exclusively on our 4-mo. old) started to repel. I had changed nothing in my diaper wash routine. So, I did the recommended scrub-with-Dawn thing, and when I squirted water on them with a bulb syringe they did not repel. After running them through the washer with no detergent, however, (to get the Dawn rinsed out), they repelled again! I have tried washing with Sportwash with extra rinses, doing numerous hot washes with no detergent, and scrubbing with Dawn again.
I think the problem is that I washed a couple of other loads of clothes, not diapers, in my front loader with *regular* Tide instead of Tide HE. It seems that the repelling is being caused by the washer itself. :-(
I have run 5 or 6 cycles with nothing in the washer, and while it's tough to tell with a front loader, there are a few bubbles in the water. I have also run a cycle with chlorine bleach in the detergent dispenser and then a couple hot cycles with nothing, to get rid of the bleachiness.
I am SO out of ideas, and I am tired of putting my boy in disposables while I repair these dipes!! Please help!
