I did cloth nappies, so washed a LOT of baby poo 😆 you want a hot wash (60 degrees works a treat) with a good quality mainstream detergent (biozet powder is great) and add half a cap of vanish or sard to the wash. Any particularly stubborn spots will benefit from a scrub with some sard soap (or any bar soap) before chucking in the wash. Anything that’s particularly soaked in poo or wee is good to do a prewash first and then a second wash so it’s not sloshing around in poo soup 😅
Spray with napisan, soak in cold water with napisan powder over night, wash in cold water.
Can highly recommend the Facebook group ‘clean cloth nappies’ even if you don’t do cloth nappies. They’re like the evidence based laundry gods!
What Rebecca said is what I was gonna say ,it's best to get on it straight away but I know sometimes life gets in the way (i have 2 under 2 boys😅) even soak for 2-3 hrs still has worked for me even for red stained pasta sauce
I use cloth nappies and they’ve all come out white never stained. Next time if you can’t spray it w a stain remover spray straight away, soak it in a bucket of water until you can get to it- coz as soon as a stain dries, it’s that much harder to get out. Soak it in a stain remover and detergent solution, then chuck it into a wash w extra stain remover in there as well. Everything should come out To prevent the poop on clothes altogether, use some cloth nappy covers over the disposable as disposable nappy elastics are are so thin and crap that they’re not the best at holding in poop. The covers have prevented me hundreds of potential blowouts xx (I’ve never actually had a blowout ever)
I use SARD stain remover spray to hand wash and rinse really well. Then I put it in washing machine on baby wash setting.
Hand sponge the stain with your usual detergent, squeeze out the excess water and then hang the item in front of a window (stain facing outside) or hang on the line.. after a couple of days the natural daylight will have bleached the stain and then you just wash as usual! Works every time! I've never had to stress over or throw away clothes because of pooh stains
If you hang out in the sun it usually gets rid of them
Napisan works wonders!
