My hemp inserts smeel heaps too or it could just be Ben's wee?? They don't all smell, just the really full ones. I always wash with white vinegar and my hm washing powder is half baking soda. So do I still need to strip my inserts??]]> Sat, 05 Mar 2011 18:56:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38278&PID=1279822&title=smelly-mcns#1279822 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38278&PID=1279653&title=smelly-mcns#1279653 Author: mumoftwins

When I do a strip wash I put the baking soda in the machine as it fills, add the inserts (don't soak the outers!!) then pour the vinegar in, let the machine go for a minute or 2 too thoroughly mix everything up, then stop the machine and soak for the day/overnight. Then I let the machine finish out the cycle (with outers), then rinse again. If that doesn't work I do another hot wash with baking soda and put vinegar in the fab softener part.
And I always put the nappies through a rinse cycle before washing or striping, to get as much urine out as possible. ]]> Sat, 05 Mar 2011 11:00:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38278&PID=1279653&title=smelly-mcns#1279653 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38278&PID=1279619&title=smelly-mcns#1279619 Author: cole88

A strip wash should help. Hot water, white vinegar and baking soda......soak overnight, rinse, wash in hot with tiny amount of powder or good handful of baking soda, double rinse then hang in direct sunlight.

Not sure if I'm in the right place..?? I'm a first time user of MCN's and loving them..!!!!

However, they are really smelling very bad..! I use Baby First nappies with microfleece liners.. I use a dry pail and wash every 2nd day and once in a while throw in a lid of dettol into the fabric softner part on washing machine.

They're washed on warm wash..

As soon as my son does a wee in his nappy it STINKS of strong urine - almost like mouse wee.. It's now starting to make his skin a bit smelly too..

Help please..!!??? What can I do to get the smell out..? Or are they gonna be like this forever..?
