can u wash tots bots and kushies on a 90 wash once in a while

[babyjjbaby]

i now u can go upto 60 but i want to put the second hand ones i have brought on a 90 wash and don't know

Do not put fluffles on a 90 wash or you'll kill them, the kushies ultra PUL won't appreciate it either - tbh I think it is a no no with them all as you may damage the elastic. If you just want to get them really clean before you use them have you thought of using a nappy sanitiser instead of the 90 wash (much safer bet IMO)

i washed them on a 60 with some vunegar and a prewash

NO!!!

It'll kill the elastic.

60 really is hot enough to kill anything you need to

get some nappy fresh

whats that

nappy fresh

ooooo where can i get that apart from the internet cos of postage that would be ideal for when we go to pontins

Babyjj- Mothercare, John Lewis and Boots should all sell nappy soak of some kind in a small box. It might have a different name, but it's all the same stuff

thanks i will try and get some

nappy fresh is different to milton/napisan cos both of those can wreck the elastic in the nappies cos of chemicals in them. nappy fresh is an environmentally friendly one so it doesn't have any nasty chemicals that wreck your nappies.

Was thinking of the PHP Nappy Soak which is the biodegradable one - blue box. Bambino Mio is also usually stocked in Boots etc too. Should be about £2.50 a box.

oh i've not seen the php one in the shops. is the bambino meo one biodregadable?

Hang on - will find a link

Why would you want to?

Hospitals wash everything at 60. Imagine all the research that's gone into deciding what temperature is necessary to wash the communal bedding of variously ill people. Good enough for me.

Mothercare's own brand

Bambino Mio - pricey!!

PHP NAppy Soak - I used to buy this one in bulk from here

I think it's all the same stuff - white with wee blue bits, just re-packaged depending on who's selling it - the blurb is always the same.

But agree than Napisan and Milton will be harsher

I spoke to the Totsbots inventor lady once (v nice!) and she said a scoop of Vanish powder once in a while would be fine to give them a bit of a boost if they're looking a bit sad or grey after a while.

does that php one whiten cos the nappyfresh one does.

you can use oxy powders like vanish as long as they don't contain anything other than sodium carbonate. no perfumes or anything else.

i buy nappy fresh from here

postage is £1.60 on top.

our local oxfam has started selling it aswell and so do the local health food shop.
