First poo on cloth!!!! advice needed.

Yes a friend has one of those - not little squirt - I think that's a boy's toileting aid, but similar, It fixes to the toilet and then you just wash it off.

So if you don't rinse are you just leaving the poo on the nappy for the day or two it's in the bucket? Despite the fact she's nearly two, Ruby loves grapes and the poo was rather runny! so no nice experience of just "rolling the solids off" so to speak. (I can't believe I'm discussing all of this - it's amazing what having children does to one)

SO I may have to leave gloves at the ready for all this rinsing and wringing -

Nickel we rinse our nappies - we don't have one of those things that fix to the toilet but a bucket in the lanndry. We rinse the pooey nappy into the bucket to collect the chunky bits (TMI I know, but we ARE talking about poo here LOL!) and then tip it down the loo. Better than trying to get the poo down the plug hole! (for anyone grossed out about poo going down the sink, it ends up in the sewerage system, not the stormwater drain )

Mostly Flynn's poos stick to the liner so we are rinsing every pooey nappy. With pi$$y nappies we dry pail then do a half-load rinse in the machine before we wash. As we use mostly flannel flats (we only have 5 MCNs for Flynn and none for Ollie) we occasionally soak the nappies overnight in a bucket with a cup of white vinegar to get rid of any lingering smells.

Cloth rocks, eh?

Guys - i just flushed the business down the toilet, put it in the bucket and washed it the next day. Did a rinse cycle first, and then just put normal wash, and line dry! The other nappies I didn't even flush (suggested by Christy)
worked a treat! No need for flushing or attachments to the toilet or rinsing poo down the sink! So this method totally suits me.

Anyway I'm totally enjoying this whole cloth nappy thing. It's very cool!!!!
Thanx for all your replies.
