Oh bum, pull-up in the washing machine

Is it salvagable? The washing looks much like yo'd expect if a tissue had been in there iyswim? I've cleaned out the drum and have an empty hot wash on right now, and I have my washing soakign in the bath in the meantime. Is this completely the wrong thing to do??
And yes, the potty training (as well as opening my damn eyes)starts tomorrow Blush

If you have a tumble dryer dry the clothes in that, that will get rid of the fluff on the clothes

give them another spin first though

I put one of ds's incontinence pads through a while ago and it stayed remarkably intact. Dont think I did anything special, just made sure all the visible bits were out of the machine. Redid the washing of course. It's been fine since.
Oh, you might want to check and clear the filter.

Ooo I hadn't thought of the tumble drier working on the fluff, I'll try that after another rinse, thank you :)

usualsuspect, your advice was brilliant, all fixed :) But a word of warning to anyone who may be as idiotic as me in the future, if you're tumble drying then check the fluff filter every 20 minutes or so- I've never seen so much fluff in my life Shock
