I'm ready (and actually a little behind!) to wash all my CDs in preparation for the impending arrival of our baby. I am still a little baffled about the initial washing process. It seems like everyone has a different method and number of washings recommended.
Here are some specific questions I have:
1. I have a batch of Kissaluvs fitteds & a couple of contours...I'm assuming these can all be washed together. The instructions say to wash several times before use. I am guessing that this means hot water? Do I leave them snapped or unsnap them? Do I dry them between washings or just fill the washer up and do it again without drying?
2. I have about 12 bleached CPFs. How do I do the initial wash on them? Same question...dry between washings? How many washings will I need to do?
3. I have some ME Sandy's and one Onesize. Can these be washed the same as the Kissaluvs? Snapped or unsnapped? Take out the snap-in liner in the OS?
4. What about covers? How many times do they have to be washed? I have an assortment: proraps (snap & velcro), ME airflows, bummi snaps, bumpkins velcro. Do I leave them snapped to wash or undo them? Do I put them in the dryer or hang to dry?
5. I also have some cloth wipes (from Darling Diapers), some doublers, a couple of WAHM AIOs, a Bumpkins AIO and a Proraps AIO. Can these just be washed along with the other stuff? What about drying?
I know that part of the washing process initially is to get up to maximum absorbancy but I'm wondering how to get there! LOL! Do I do all the original washings on hot? Even covers? Can the covers be washed with the diapers? Yikes! I didn't realize that I had so many questions!! Thanks for taking any time you have to give me some pointers! :-)
