I dont think we ever had nb bf stains. It was the post weaning that really stuck! Liners? Leave them out in the rain and then go sun seaking?

I get staining with nb bf poo too. Sun seems to be the best answer so far...

I tried sunning some bf stains out this week. It's magic! I hanged them up in the conservatory window - it wasn't even bright sunshine :) Stains all gone :yahoo:

Definitely sunning them out works but I also found keeping the stain wet till its washed helped aswell.

Yep sun :) as Kelly said, just at a window is fine! Maybe you're eating too much tumeric / saffrom @scarlet :hohoho:

I have lots of stains too. I second, third, fourth the sun. It s the only thing that works. I ve had nappies out on these cold sunny days. They don t really dry very much but the stains go and then I tumble to finish them off or dry on a maid inside. I ve also put the maid in the window inside.

I had problems with newborn poo. I put it down to having to give O abidec, a bright yellow vitamin drop x
