to be disgusted by this.

[binhome]

Dh never does the washing but was running low on pants. So he collected all the dirty pants in the house including ds's badly soiled ones in the laundry basket i use for clean washing.
Aibu to be disgusted by this. I have cleaned said basket with anti bac spray but this makes be cringe.
Aibu or ocd.

OCD is a real illness, not something you just have because you are a neat freak.

You are a neat freak. I use the same baskets for clean and dirty.

Don't you have a hamper?

YABU.

He helped didn't he? I'd be grateful. I use the same basket too.

Unless people in your house are particularly unsanitary in their toilet habits, I think YABU! :)

I also only have one washing basket I don't even think DH even knows where it is.

I don't even have a clean washing basket,but if I did I'm sure it would never be empty.

The clean washing chair in my bedroom is usually piled high.

What tee said. People throwing OCD around like its just being a bit fussy really pisses me off.

YABU

I have one basket.

Helped?! Washing your own laundry isn't "helping" :(

But yes OP, YABU, sorry.

And where on earth were the badly soiled pants anyway? Surely they go straight into the washing machine or at least the wash basket?

What Tee said

We have a hamper too.
And yes maybe i am bordering on ocd in a few things.
Checking locks etc. I just didn't think it was terribly hygiencic putting pants with caked on poo in a basked i use for clean.

At least he bloody did it,be grateful, swish the basket out with anti bac & forget it.

Perhaps some lessons in wiping are more in order than worrying about what basket things go in?

I have never seen caked on poo on pants in this house and I have a 4 year old who is still not toilet trained.

If you have been diagnosed with OCD I apologize. If you haven't, you aren't or should go to a GP if you think you are.

If you were really OCD you would not have dirty soiled pants anywhere in your house.

In fact to me not dealing with immediately is rather slovenly IMO!

YABU especially for the OCD comments.

How long do you leave pants 'caked in poo'? Dds were rinsed and thrown straight in the machine, rather than left festering away. We have one basket here.

Why do you not clean pants caked in poo? My son is cloth nappies and it's washed immediately. Soiled pants stink, they get bagged and binned asap.

YABVU btw.

I think I might wipe it out with a cloth if someone had done that. I have a washing basket. It's for emptying the washing machine contents into when they've been washed, before the stuff gets hung up to dry. For dirty washing I have a large washing basket with a lid and 2 bins. If I take stuff to a launderette and use a black bag, I take a clean one to put the washing in afterwards so it doesn't go back in the same one that the dirty washing was in. I'm not fussy or a neat freak.

You won't be OCD if you can leave pants caked in poo in your house. Just the possibility would make me feel really, really ill.

And yes, I have an OCD diagnosis.

I am supposed to have two baskets now?

U.

YABU, no wonder he doesn't often help.
