About to pre-wash my MCN... HELP!!!

[Pretty Butterfly]

You seriously wouldn't read about it.....


I'd put on an empty cycle, to clean the machine in case it done something to my new nappies... and it conked out!!!

The darn thing wont drain....
Adam has been outside, in the rain, trying to fix it.

He just called me out, and he'd found 1 sock and 5 bra underwires clogged in the draining pipe!!!!

So he's putting it back together for me now.... poor Ad....

so it's true, Washing Machines DO eat socks!!

[Pretty Butterfly]

True, they do!!!

I understand how the wires got through the tiny holes into the drain, but a whole long sock??????

Off to do another clean cycle, THEN I will wash my nappies...

Found this thread thought I'd use it to ask my question rather than starting a new thread as it does relate!!

I'm about to prewash my MCNs - they are BBH fitteds and AIO's. I've taken the bamboo inserts out of them, can i wash them all together? Or wash inserts separately?
It's probably a silly question but i'd rather ask than stuff up my stash of MCNs as they aren't cheap!!

I'm going to use warm wash with 1/2 detergent. Then 2nd and 3rd washes I'll use no detergent and just cold wash. Was reading BBH website and it didnt say anything about washing the boosters/inserts differently?? So do the same??

* I'll wash the PUL covers with the nappies but the wool covers separately as per the website states (lanolise them)

Just hoping someone can just confirm the above as being correct?? cheers ears!

Yep Ren, chuck em all in together. (except the wool like you were going to).

[*Efjay*]

Just make sure you don't run the wash too hot with your PUL in there.

ok thank you girls. appreciate it.

ALSO..... can i put bamboo fitteds (natural colour) in with the coloured fitteds i have? the colours wont run will they onto the natural colour nappies??

I have made sure the minkee AIO red is washed separately as it states on the sticker i got with it.
