Hi,
I sure hope someone out there can help. I have some pocket nappies, bum genius and fuzzi bunz in medium (not that, that matters but for some with a sewn in booster and some separate.) I used these nappies probably for a good year and a half with my son (skinny boy) before potty training. Now, I'd like to use these nappies on my daughter but every time I put them on after one pee is an eye watering ammonia smell which pretty much burns her leading to terrible nappy rash! I love these nappies but am about to give up! Here's what I've tried so far, anyone have any other ideas??
-Biological powder and a lot of rinses
-Fairy liquid and a million rinses
-Super hot washes
-Boiling water on the inserts
-napisan
-Latest test was a German bile soap someone gave me rubbed on the nappies + nonbio and napisan washed at 60 or 90 (can't remember) with an extra rinse...
While better, it's not great. There is no smell when the nappies are washed and dried - just after pee (and in the nappy bucket!!) What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any advice!!
Cheers, Jenn
