cleaning cloth diapers

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

I use the Bumgenius 4.0 cloth diapers and they are starting to get stained up.  Does anyone know a natural way of cleaning these without using harsh chemicals or affecting the absorbancy of the diaper?  I use laundry berries to wash them but they arent strong enough to remove the stains.

Sunning the diapers does wonders! When they're wet (or damp) put them outside in the sun, either by hanging them or lying them flat on a table and just let the sun brighten the stains for a few hours. You may have to do it a few times before they completely (or almost completely) go away. You can also squirt a little lemon juice on the stains and then put them in the sun for extra power. You could also try OxiClean.
