Am I using cloth wipes correctly?

BriansLovie · 03-06-2008, 07:22 AM

I made about 10 cloth wipes (I made them 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 LOL) But anyways, I have been putting a few drops of baby oil and baby wash in a wipes container and a small amount of water with just about 6 wipes. Am I doing this correctly? I have been washing them every two days (after the diaper change I put them in water to soak). I plan to make at least 4 more wipes out of the fabric I have. Just want to make sure I'm doing it right! He's not in cloth diapers, but I figured it would help us out a bit financially with at least cloth wipes!

If they're working for you you're using them correctly!

I don't see anything wrong w/ what you're doing.

some people use a wipe solution. I just keep mine dry by the sink & grab one, run it under warm water & then change the diaper.

Sounds fine.

I store mine dry and just wet them in the sink with warm water before using them.

Whatever works for you.
