As much as we all love the reusability aspect of cloth diapers, they don't live forever. After 200 or 300 washes, most cloth diapers are ready to retire. Of all the components on a modern cloth diaper, elastics might be the first piece to snap, relax or dissolve. To keep this from happening prematurely, so you can get the full life out of your diapers, here's 5 things to keep in mind.
Yes I said clean your washing machine. No, it's not an oxymoron. Machines need to be cleaned and maintained so they can do the dirty job of cleaning dirty laundry - and your cloth diapers properly. Is it hard? No. Just one of those 'adulting' things no one told you about. Here's how to do it and how often it needs to be done.
You know what turns a lot of new parents off the though of cloth diapering? All the washing 'rules'. Parents are worried enough about what to do with the poo and then they start researching and everywhere they look someone has a different opinion on how you should or shouldn't wash your diapers. It's no wonder new parents get overwhelmed and give up before they even give it a try.
But that's just it. They are only people's opinions. End of discussion.
