Repelling and Absorption problems

"The overnight charcoal liners are getting soaking wet. The entire diaper shell is dry apart from where the lil helper tag is sewn. Have there been other customers with this same issue? Is it something I'm doing? Please help!"



This appears to be a diaper absorbency issue, where the diaper is not absorbing as much as it should. This can often be rectified with a slight change in the wash routine of the diapers.


How to wash your diapers:

1. Make sure any solid β€œstuff” is already out of the diapers, inserts, and liners before you throw them in the washer.

2. Be sure to unsnap the inserts from the diaper cover and each other before washing.

3. Pre-wash the diapers (short cycle) in warm water using the recommended brand and amount of detergent. We recommend Tide Original to Line 1.

4. Heavy Duty (longest cycle) warm/cold wash with proper detergent amount. We recommend Tide Original, amount depends on size of load.

5. Hang to dry as often as you can, tumble dry low if you are in a rush!

 We recommend Tide Original. 


If you wash your diapers with this washing method a couple of times, it may restore your diapers to its original state and you will once again see them working well for you.


In extreme situations, your diapers may require a strip, but this is a last resort.
