I have just started using cloth with my 2 year old, getting her ready for TT and building up a stash for the next baby who I plan to have in cloth from the beginning.
So far I have 5 AIO or AI2's and about 5 fitted which are all working very well, I am very happy with them and to be using them. (Thanks for all the advice in this section of the forum)
My problem is that the nappies are coming out of the machine smelling of urine.
I am dry pailing and the nappies are in there for 8-12 hours max, mostly not even that long. I have a brand new front loader with heaps of wash choices, and at the moment I am washing on cold, with an eco-wash function. I use the pre-wash function and an extra rinse also and the machine spins at 1400RPM. I am using the eco store laundry liquid as I can't stand the smell of anything with perfumes in it (pregnancy) + I do try to use the most environmentally friendly cleaning products I can find.
From what I understand, I am following the instructions that came with the nappies and what has been suggested on here. I am very disappointed when I pull them out of the machine and there is a definite whiff of urine when I hang them.
Any suggestions of what I may be doing wrong or what I can do to avoid this?
TIA
