Nappies into Front Loader Lightbulb Moment

[Bloom]

Despite using clothies for over a year now, I have only now just discovered this: I can put the dirty nappies into our front loader without pulling them out of the nappy bucket by hand!

I held the nappy bucket parallel to the floor and gave it a good "flick" and the nappies were propelled into the front loader without handling! I thought I'd share in case there were any other equally dense mums out there!

HAHA! I tried that but epic fail on coordination . I ended up bouncing the bucket contents off the door and they landed in my lap!

Hmmm may have to try it.....but I can see me failing and being covered ion dirty nappies

[~clover~]

Lol, I have a top loader, but still have to use my hands coz I have some pockets!

i have a toploader too but i pull the inserts out befor i put them in the bucket but with the two kiddies i cant quite tip my bucket which is a mini wheelie bin in i do have to touch them maybe i'll get DH to lift it for me lol

It is all in the wrist, as they say! Plus I put the front of the bucket quite close, practically touching the front of the washing machine! No pockets here - makes it easier!

Hmmm, never thought of that! So i guess you pull them all apart as soon as you take them off? I am lazy and just shove them all into the bucket, and then 2 days later am retching while i unsnap and de-pocket them to put them in the machine!

Thanks for the tip! Will def be trying it

lol, I put a nappy load on before and I'm quite proud to say I think I've mastered it I had a bit of a cringe and one that alsmost escaped. I just make sure i deconstruct anything before it goes into the bucket usually too

Cool will be giving that a go...
I deconstruct nappies before they go in the wash if required, and rinse too... do I have too much time on my hands???

[Aligater]

yep it works well been doing it since we got our front loader at the begining of the year

I cheat... I put mine in the wash on the "rinse/spin" cycle instead XD
