Cleaning up?

[AFWife]

How do you clean your potty chair?

After a pee i usually just rinse with water and dry it and set it back out...

After poop I've been rinsing and then spraying it with a vinegar/water solution, wiping, and setting back out...

I just rinse with water for pee and poop. If the poop sticks, I'll wipe it with a washcloth or something. I don't wipe it after I've rinsed it, and it's dry by the next time we need it. All the potties we have are made out of hard plastic. So far so good!

I empty pee, rinse poop with water and wipe with a lysol wipe if there are stuck bits. So it gets disinfected a few times a week. But that's more because the wipes are handy to the bathroom.

This is what we do as well.

Same here.

I just rinse and go, every once in a while I clean it with vinegar! I would be careful with the Lysol as it leaves a residue that could be harmful to baby, not just their skin but also long term effects like possible cancer and neurological damage!

Got a citation for the research on that that I can read? It'd be nice if I could check toxicity levels and make a more informed choice, y'know? (Which is the major problem with the state of California's labeling system, everything's a potential carcinogen at some level and they don't break it down into amount or type of exposure) There are some things where you could smear it on your skin all day with no worries as long as you bathe regularly, but will kill you if you lick them, and other things where breathing the vapors only smells bad, but touching it will result in Bad Things.

(I don't consider Mercola to be a trustworthy source as he doesn't cite sources so they can be found and uses fearmongering language.)

I can't remember where I read it but I decided that I was not going to take a chance like that with my DD! Not to mention the smell gives me a headache!
