What is the best method to wash cloth diaper. There is no best method how to wash cloth diaper but generally :
-
Step 1
Flush solid waste away. Some people use disposable liners inside cloth diapers to make this easier.
-
Step 2
Put diapers in a pail half-filled with a mixture of water and 1/4 cup of vinegar or Borax, to control odor and to make stain removal easier. If you will be washing them frequently, you can also put them in a dry pail.
-
Step 3
Soak diapers until you are ready to wash them, then drain excess liquid into the toilet. If necessary, use your spin cycle to help remove the soaking solution.

Double-rinse in cold water ‘ add some vinegar to the second rinse cycle, to help freshen the diapers.

- I will put all the cloth diapers inside laundry bag and wash it.
- I will soak all dirty Cloth Diaper under running water and drain it to make sure all the excess water gone. After drain it, i just hang on my toilet sink and wait until its half dry. Then i just throw into dry pile and wait until 3 / 4 CDs in pile or when my dry pile full, then i will wash it. To save the electricity bill actually. huhuh
