What solution do you use for the wipes?

And what solution do you use to put them in until wash day?


Because of Kaileigh being sick and now having a rash Im using only cloth wipes. I found a solution online that used baby oil, mild soap and water, and so far it's been awesome. I have a container with a lid next to my wipe container that has water/vinegar mixture for them to soak in until wash day.

Am I doing it right? Any other tips for using cloth wipes??

Also I found a cute pattern online for making my own cloth diapers and Im going to attempt it as soon as I am well. My only problem is finding pull here. I know my hobby lobby doesnt sell it but Im hoping jo-anns does. I do have a michaels about 40 minutes from here so I could always go there and see, or send dh after he gets off work since he works in that city..LOL

I use Burts Bee soap a few drops of tea tree oil, few drops of lavender oil and warm water. I put my wipes in a wipe container and pour the solution over it...works great.

I actually only use warm water. I keep the wipes dry and stacked in his room until needed, then I just get them wet with warm water. Thats it for me.

I keep my wipes dry until use as well. It's either plain water or water mixed with baby oil and baby wash.

Good luck with the diapers! We're using mommy-made pocket diapers over here but not made with PUL Have you thought of shopping online, eg:

PUL Fabric for Cloth Diapers

yep, i use some water, burts bees baby oil and burts bees soap all mixed in a spray bottle and i just dump the wipes directly into my pail until it's wash day (every other-3 days)

We just use plain water too. My daughter had super sensitive skin so we leave them plain for Max as well.

Thanks ladies...I am actually really liking them. I was hesitant at first but since I NEED to use them for her rash Im a full lover now and will probably not use disposable other then when we are out in public. I still use sposies for night and out in public though.

I use either CJ's Carcass cleaner or the little drops....but one of those made Sophie break out, so I've just been using California Baby Diaper Spray with dry wipes, which I think I like the best overall.
