Keeping Nappies White ( removing poo stains)

Hello!
I would love some advice for keeping my nappies white and removing poo stains!
My LO is 4 and 1/2 months and breastfeed so still has the very runny mustard poo's sorry for TMI.
After a BM i rinse the poo out and leave them to soak before putting them into wash.I have tried spraying with stain removing products but doesn't seem to very effective.
Been using cloth for about a month now and thought I would see if any of you cloth pro's could give me some advice!
Oh and im currently using tots bots and itti bitti snap in nappies!

sunlight, bring on the summer and you'll have snowy white nappies again

Apparently hanging them outside helps to bleach out stains...

I agree, drying them outside in the sun. Hard at this time of year but hopefully won't be too long! I also find they fade slowly over time. The more washes they go through the less the stain shows.

Without outdoor space you can still pop them on the window sill in the sun. My nappies spend the winter going a bit grey then get all nice and white again in the spring and summer

Of course they are on dc2 now and I am not nearly as bothered about stains as I was with dc1

Try get a sock dryer (one of those that you can hang by the window with little pegs on) The sunlight at the window will whiten them
