Woops - accidentally washed in cold

[Anno]

I forgot to turn the water to hot after my cold pre-wash...and washed the whole load of diapers in cold. they went in the dryer before I noticed! Is it ok to just use them or would you re-wash? I don't want to risk a rash on my baby's nice bottom....

Thanks!

I always washed my diapers on cold. Less staining, and the dryer is hot enough to kill the nasties.

Wow, who'd've thunk? Thanks for that. I will see what happens and might just switch to cold water wash!

I'm not sure why this didn't occur to me...I guess I just always thought one 'had to' use hot to wash diapers!
