Thats such a got tip about putting bepanthen on cuts, Caprece is always cutting her wee face.

man I'm a shocker I never wash anything new, never cut the tags off and use whatever powder is on sale. I'm real bad at adding a little bit extra washing powder too.

I am a real nerd with separating things tho we have 6 baskets, one for each of us, one for towels and one for woollens/delicates and I wash everything on its own.

Neither of my kids have ever had a reaction to anything either. Ben on the other hand has quite bad excema but that eco store stuff didn't make a difference so i don't bother.

Oh, and one thing the plunket nurse said awas to use less of whatever you use to wash clothes with for bubbas stuff - I use about half, it still is clean and smells great. Obviously not for really soiled stuff or nappies of course.

It's funny how we all sort washing differently! I sort: nappies, towels, dark colours, light colours.

Hey,

I have been washing my nappies on a hot full wash. If it is just wees will a quick wash be ok? and also is it ok to wash them on cold? We pretty much wash all our clothes on a quick wash, unless they are really soiled (like when I have been down the river with the dogs ) but have been washing the nappies differently as the instructions said hot wash but seems overkill if its just wees. Does it have to be hot for the absorbency?
