yeah okay so i forgot to check the mail on Friday and i just discovered whilst helping DH putting the bins out then checking the letter box for some strange reason that i got my first fluffy mail :smiliedance: :yelclap:

I'm trialing Snuggle butts until my other fluffy mail packages arrive.

So the n00b question arises, When i wash the nappies for the first time to increase absorbancy, do i have to wait for them to dry first and then put them in the wash again ? or can i keep washing once the load is finished IYKWIM.

I hope to god the question makes atleast partial sense :sleeping:

I just kept throwing them back in the wash with each load.

No need to dry them inbetween washes and also you only need to use washing powder/liquid for the first wash. The first wash washes away any product junk left on material and the other washes just increases absorbency and rinces them well.

I have just washed my baby beehinds which seemed to take forever to dry, it's just as well summer is on it's way :thumbsup: I'm use to the pocket nappies which don't take very long to dry. Hopefully this means they will hold a lot of weewee :D
I'll be using them tonight for the first time.

I never even take mine out of the machine for those first washes, I just keep putting it back on with no detergent after the first wash :)

Okay thanx all :hugs:

I put them in 2 x long washes (53mins each) and i've just done 2 x normal washes (36mins each) all on their own of course in a low wash, if that makes sense :o .. i think that should be long enough.

Time to put them in the dryer on low heat, there's no way they would dry today in this weather :gloomy:

Okay so I am obviously the only idiot that has been drying them in between!!!!!!!:banghead: :D

Are the hemparoos supposed to be so "fluffy"? They are "fluffing" all over the nappies and inserts, is that okay?
