@markiplier Okay I’ll try that detergent. I did rinse it until it was clear. I used our bidet hose for each and every insert and pocket until nothing came out because I didn’t want to continue any stripping. I had to strip the first two times because of the bad smell that came from the...
@cees Slimy, watching the last rinse cycle and seeing suds literally redeposit to the diapers before the spin cycle at the end. Swishing and bubbles/white residue. I’ve tried adding bleach to kick the smell when I first had issues and it worked but I can’t add bleach to every load. That’s why...
@seanmcc Yeah, before all of this was happening I used detergent in both washes as well and I never had any issues. It was strange when the worksheet said just a rinse and spin for the first wash. I hate judgement 😂🥲 we are all just trying to save money/the planet and need a little advice
@seanmcc Thanks for the tip! I can try a hot cycle with the first wash too. I followed the worksheet by cloth diapers for beginners where I actually looked at my machine manual for load weight and what size they consider it. For my washer, a medium load is 6-10 lbs. my dirty diaper weight is 7...

Wash 2- heavy duty heavy soil, hot. Line 2 tide
I’m losing my mind over these diapers. I didn’t have an issue for months, then we moved. We have SOFT water here. At 25ppm. I did not know considering we have a well but no softener so I assumed it would be harder. This led to build up. I stripped once. Reevaluated my wash routine for the soft...
