My nappies look horrible

Covered in glowing yellow newborn stains that there is sod all sunlight/dry weather to get rid of! (Not enough window space to just leave them there).

I know they are clean and it doesn't matter, but it looks horrible.

Wait for the first time you get to hang them out in Spring, it is an immense satisfaction to get them in all sun-bleached after the winter.

oh no flame - I assume you've tried everything!

I know a lot of people on here don't recomend it, but when I need to get rid of some stains, I put some nappysan in with the wash once in a while and it does work. I just make sure I do an extra rinse to usual. It also seems to stop smelly nappies tooo.

I've tried most things, don't want to risk the elastic with the nappisan as some of them are on their third or fourth cycle and would probably just die.

I have been given a whole load of bonus nappies, so I might chuck the really yellow ones on the line for a few days to get any random sun and frost at them a bit

Or dye em all.

wind/rain/dye - in that order! Youa re great at it - so expect they will look super cool when you have finished!
