If needed, she gets a little spritz of california baby diaper area spray, which has lasted us forever! When #4 arrives in Oct., s/he will be changed on the bassinet changing table for a while, which is what I did for #3 when we started cloth. I don't use my prefolds for diapering anymore, but they make great changing pads (the stretchy terry cloth changing table pad covers never made it through a change for us without getting peed on! ) and are great for transporting drippy diapers to my diaper pail, which I keep in the basement.NDmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631095462543937245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372695054968205332.post-59078004213478278332010-02-22T15:58:54.606-05:002010-02-22T15:58:54.606-05:00It must have taken a bit of thought to write this ...It must have taken a bit of thought to write this article.

I feel like it puts less strain on the snaps for me to unsnap them before washing. I completely dismantle the diaper - remove insert, unsnap insert (if it has snaps), unsnap front of diaper and fasten laundry tabs (when appropriate) - before putting in the wet bag. That way I don't have to touch the diaper again before putting it straight in the washer. <br /><br />And Megan, I simply put my dry wipes in a regular wipes box (one that disposable wipes come in) then mix up my wipes solution and pour it over them. They stay fresh smelling for 2-3 days before getting musty, but I've usually used them up by then anyway. I know it's nice to have them in a wipe warmer, but my DD doesn't seem to mind the cold wipes. I do warm one in my hand sometimes on a cold morning. <br />aboverubies15 at yahoo dot comCrystalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372695054968205332.post-22150429255538937542010-02-17T22:17:35.156-05:002010-02-17T22:17:35.156-05:00I like how simple you put everything but it sure i...I like how simple you put everything but it sure is a good explanation.
