    Okay so my baby brain didn't remember this thread correctly ARGH!!! lol

    I'm using my maternity bras from my last pregnancy and cause I was extremely ill after Ethan was born I produced a HUGE amount of sweat and my bras STINK!!!! DH says he can't smell them but I'm not brave enough to put them too close to his nose so I decided to do what I read on BB and made a paste of what I THOUGHT was correct and cover the under arm areas of my bras then put them in the wash... it was on the way to the washing machine I realised that it wasn't cornflour I was meant to make the paste with but baking soda.... Ooopppps

    My sister does the vinegar trick to her shirts that do this. Works wonders for her.

    Just an update. I wore the offending shirt today after trying the Vinegar solution - and it worked! So much better. I think I am self conscious about the smell in this shirt anyway, but wow it made a difference. I think i will keep doing it for the next few washes, but definately was a success. Thanks so much for all the help with my problem. You guys are great
