Great Cloth Diaper Hunt

Fluff Friday 52

I actually thought about the gDiapers when deciding what cloth diaper to use but I went against it since I would still have to get refills for them. Now they have the gCloth inserts! Of course, now I know gRefills are still better than disposables, especially the convience when going out! I still use cloth when I'm out with Baby Girl. This would be a bonus for us to have the gDiapers. Visit the Cloth Diaper Whisperer to enter the giveaway and come back to their website to see the winner.
Feed Your Stash Friday, Oct 23-30

This week's question is: Have you found that one size pocket diapers work well for your baby(ies)? The only OS pockets that I have are the BumGenius 3.0 and do like them. I would also like to try the Smartipants.
Visit the Cloth Diaper Blog to enter the giveaway. Winner will be announced on the following friday on their website. Good luck!

Another probiotic is Lactobacillus acidophilus, which is often found in yogurt.

**CLOSED** Oxygen Bleach from Tropical Traditions { Review and Giveaway }

Oxygen Bleach by Tropical Traditions is a non-chlorine, destainer and deodorizer and whitener. It's "safe and effective alternative to chlorine" with "no harmful by-products which negatively affect the environment." Ingredients are Sodium percarbonate and soda ash (Sodium carbonate).I had a chance to use with my cloth diapers. I know most of my stains are probably set up but I was able to lighten them a little bit. Blueberries poop stain are the worst, if you asked me. It's great for when you don't have the sun's help, especially this rainy fall days. In my case, I just won't get much chance to sun it! Plenty of times I forget about the laundry. When it's done, it's too late to bring them out
I've actually cut down my washing time 60%! Before I would do a cold wash with detergent (40mins) then a hot wash with detergent (55mins) and then usually a hot wash without detergent (35mins)! A total of 130 minutes for my cloth diapers!!! My first time I thought I could cut corner and it didn't work too well
My 2nd time around using the Oxygen Bleach I did it in about 81minutes. I did a cold prewash (11mins), soak in hot water with Oxygen Bleach (30mins), and a hot wash with detergent (40mins). I should mention I have a front load washer and did one scoup of the Oxygen Bleach. My main detergent that I used is Country Save. (I still have 2 more boxes of them. All I have to say is Amazon!) It worked out well and the cloth diaper didn't have a stink to them! I did alter the instructions and here it is:
For the Laundry
* In the laundry Oxygen Bleach is used to destain, deodorize, and whiten. It is very effective as a laundry presoak for heavily stained articles. For light soils add 1 ounce of Oxygen Bleach with your laundry detergent per load. For moderate soils use 2ounces and for heavily soiled articles use 4 ounces.
* To whiten and deodorize diapers add 4-6 ounces of Oxygen Bleach into the soak cycle. Soak in hot water for at least 30 minutes, or overnight, then complete wash cycle.
* For whitening old linens and yellowed window shears, deodorizing and cleaning tennis shoes, or to get rid of yellow armpit stains on shirts: soak in 2 ounces of Oxygen Bleach per gallon of water for at least one hour, or overnight, then rinse.
The Oxygen Bleach is multipurpose cleaner! It can be use in the kitchen, bathroom, yard, household, camping, and wood deck. I'll have to try the wood deck instructions next summer and tell you about it! (We just had our fence done this year and it already looks old. I would love to have our deck expanded and relax on our deck. The deck is just a walkway down to the yard for us.)
Buy it: The 96oz (6 lbs!) Oxygen Bleach is on sale now for $23.99. Retail value of $30. You can get a free book, Virgin Coconut Oil, when you use my referral numbers (5253786) on your first online order. See Referral Program instructions at the bottom of my old post here. Retail for $25 (on sale now for 60% off until Sunday Oct 11th)-Yours Free.
