[blparent] Cloth Diapers Anyone?

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

It's nasty, I agree.  But common sense isn't too common anymore.  Gerald and 
I have had a long-raging battle over the dishwasher.  I want plates to be 
scraped clean before they get put in; he barely runs them under water first. 
I think the dishwasher is basically a sanitizer; he thinks it's almost a 
garbage disposal.  Of course, it isn't he who has to scrape the half a plate 
of spaghetti off the bottom after the machine has run, but that's a topic 
for another day.  The idea that anybody, let alone most people surveyed, 
would just dump the pail of dirty diapers in the machine and let it run 
actually makes me queasy.  I don't know how they can believe they've got a 
clean product on the other end of the wash cycle, much less a clean 
machine--but who am I to judge?  That wouldn't fly at my house, either.

Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may 
kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at 
evening.--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Erin, Thanks for clarifying.
Between you and me, I dont' mean to judge, but that's terribly
disgusting. i understand that new mommies have a lot on their plate,
etc. But to throw a pail of dirty poopy diapers streight into the
washing machine without rincing first--no way. That's nasty--That
wouldn't fly in my house. lol
I commented simply because I thought it was anyone's logic that you'd
want to rid the diaper of the poop before you wash it. Just like you
want to rinse the dishes before you toss them into the dish washer. I'd
always make sure to make something as clean on the surface as possible
before allowing a machine to clean it for me. To me, the washing
machine is supposed to sterilize clothes and get any excess dirt off of
them, from the fibers--not rid them of caked on dirt. I just thought
that's practical, common sense knowledge that people live by--I guess I
was wrong. lol
But yes. I do understand that you wouldn't want actual poop floating
around your washing machine. I dont' know who wouldn't mind that.
