Care of Nifty Nappy PeachyKeen Pockets

Care of PeachyKeen Pockets

 

When you wash the diapers, make sure you use a detergent that doesn t have any enzymes in it.  The enzymes eat the skin on the babies bum. 

 

1- Wash the diapers in hot water with detergent and a few drops of tea tree oil. (helps kill the bacteria, and the ammonia smell)

2- Hang out to dry in the sun  bleaches the stains and kills the smell.  Or you can dry them in the dryer on med heat.  Do not use any fabric softener!  I use the blue dryer balls.

3- Every 3rd or 4th wash you will need to strip the diapers.  This cleans the buildup of detergent out of the diapers.  To do this you just run the wash cycle over and over until there are no more bubbles left.  Then finish out the cycle.  I put water softener in when I strip.

4- Now fold your inserts and stuff the diapers, you are ready for another go of it!

 

The wipes can be washed with the diapers as can the liner of the dry pail you keep the diapers in.

You can just wash the diaper with the inserts left in.  They come out in the wash and still wash out clean! 

 

The inserts are made with hemp and bamboo now so they need to be washed 4-5X's before using to wash out the manufacturing oils.  

I hope you enjoy your diapers, the PUL layer in the diaper should make it very easy to keep baby s clothes clean and dry.
