How do you get the poo off?? LOL.
Hasn't been much of a problem yet, BF bub so lots of runny poops you can't do much with and the washing machine takes care of really well. But now she's having some solids there some chunky bits ewwwwwwwwwwww......... but still runny iykwim. OMG this is totally TMI sorry.
I can't have a little squirt coz the stupid toilet doesn't have the connection :(
So...what do I do? Tips please!
rinse off in the laundry or scrap off in to the loo with a scraper!
I tried rinsing today but it got messy! pmsl. I don't think we have enough pressure here! It wasn't very effective.
OMG I have to get a poo scraper, pmsl, motherhood is totally glamorous.
a wooden spoon can work as a poo scraper.
We have an old butter knife in the laundry and everyone knows that is the 'poo knife' :sick:
Sorry not much help but just had to say how much this thread made me giggle....poo scraper....sorry very childish I know but too funny pmsl:
Some ppl i know use flushable liners?
I just roll it off, if it doesn't roll it goes in the wash. I hot wash so I think that helps disolve any lumps that stick
:rofl:
Yup, a scraper or just wipe off with toilet paper.
I grab the front and back of the nappy and fold it in 1/2 inside out KWIM? and then I hold it in the toilet bowl near the side where the water does most of the gushing and flush KWIM? And then I have my pair of poo gloves in the laundry sink and I rinse off the rest. It works like a charm. ;)
I had to rinse off two poops the other day without the little squirt. Omg. I don't think I would do cloth if I had no little squirt.. I don't know how you girls stomach it!!!
my dh made a simmilar thing to a little squirt using the laundry tub spout.
He changed the spout to take a garden hose, and I have a short piece of hose attached with a trigger nosle on it works well. I do turn it on and off at the tap so it doen't leak.
I'm having a giggle at you girls with your poo scrapers and poo gloves :rofl:
Won't be giggling so much when its my turn to be scraping the poo!! ;)
yep, we have a 'poo spoon' for that purpose :rofl:
I must admit though, they usually just roll off into the loo. I would probably consider getting a little squirt if i had to use the 'poo spoon' too often :)
pfft, little squirt is a waste of money anyway! Buy one of those $2 plastic hose attachments with a shower head you attatch to like a bath tub tap from go-lo or somewhere - that's all I have. I took the shower head off so it is just a plastic hose. I've got mine in the bathtub as it's next to my loo, I just have a bucket and take the gross poo nappy and turn the bathtap on with the hose attached, put my thumb over the hose end to increase the pressure and wash it into the bucket then tip the bucket into the toilet. It's not messy and it doesn't cost 90+ bucks! ;)
lol great if you have a shower and toilet in the same room. . .
In the early solids days we rinsed in the laundry sink
Then when it got thicker we wiped with toilet paper
Now we just plonk it into the loo (quite dry...)
I never thought of a poo scraper! (Though we do have poo gloves..)
lol us too. Got the idea from Raven and her little arsenal of 'poo tools':
:thumbsup: Kim!
I got a spoon & a toothbrush for the ones that need a bit more attention ;) Mt best tip is to keep a roll of toilet paper in the laundry. Scrape and wipe it off the spoon with the paper and go back for more.
My LS is hardly used. I'm a bit of a LS dunce :doh: I end up with poo and water mist up the walls and all over me.
We have an old butter knife in the laundry that we use to scrape the poo. Whenever anyone comes to stay we have to let them know what it's for. Which reminds me, I really should label it. DH does most of the scraping. It doesn't bother him in the slightest and he volunteers for the job so I let him go for it!! lol
LOL Megan! I have to tell MIL whenever she goes into my laundry not to remove the poo spoon. My biggest fear is finding it back in the cutlery drawer :o Luckily for me it's an odd one.
oh i am rolling with laughter
I have to say i cheat and use flushable liners, I just lift them out and flush away, any little left behinds get rinsed down the laundry trough.
My DH would have a heart attack if i had a poo spoon.......and he had to use it
:rofl:
We have a plastic scraper (about $1 worth) which we use to scrape into the toilet. Yes, it can be gross and icky, but it gets the job done and I usually don't end up with any on me!
DH & I share the task - we take turns depending on who's washed the bottles, or gotten DS off to sleep! ;)
Kinda liking the spoon idea... reckon that might work better on some of the poo! :lol:
i just use toilet paper...
Gosh I am so glad DD is past that stage now and has solid poos that just plonk into the toilet.
I always use fleece liners in my nappies and when she used to have those yucky poos I just washed them in a bucket of water (did with newborn/breastfeed poos too), the poo comes away from the fleece really easily (the couple of times I haven't used a fleece liner I have noticed the different, the poo sticks to the nappy so much more!)
Oh girls... the glamour ;)
Just suscribing cos I'm gonna need these tips in 4 months time ;)
^oh woot, that was my 1000th comment XD
