Bumgenius 3.0 diapers...laundry detergent?

Question

I hate to have to buy laundry detergent online to wash diapers, i recently found seventh generation laundry detergent at Target. Has anyone used this or have any suggestions for a detergent i can find in a retail store....i live in northern ct

Answer 1

for baby things i use ALL baby. Seventh generation is amazing and gets everything clean. I wouldnt suggest using any bleaches or hard detergents. its going right back on your babies bum and you dont want to give them a rash.  

Answer 2

I have started researching this subject.  My daughter is going to use Tide with HOT water + borax or oxyclean + bleach.  For babies clothes, she will use Cold Water Tide.  I use that for ALL my laundry and I am very satisfied.  Also, the Tide rep. told me there is a gentle Tide for babies clothes.  Also, be very careful with dryer sheets (fabric softeners, etc) when they first came out, they caused allergies and breathing problems, like asthma.  I hope this has been corrected.

Answer 3

7th Generation would be fine. I use BioKleen which I find at Whole Foods and other health food stores...it works really well with the cloth diapers...You could also use Oxyclean Baby.

Answer 4

I like seventh generation on my clothes, but not for cloth diapering. I used a couple natural detergents, and with all of them still had to strip the diapers every other week or less! I never did try Charlie's Soap or Soap nuts, but did the seventh, a store brand similar to seventh from a local store called Henry's and a natural brand I found at Costco. I would maybe try to see the reviews on online brands and maybe try the smallest amount possible to see how well it does work before committing to a large amount!

Answer 5

I haven't tried it yet but I would like to since it is all natural.

You can buy it at diapers.com

Don't buy it online...use TIDE with bleach...
