I hope you're able to give it another try!<br /><br />Woohoo for others trying this!

Works best when diapers are wet, right out of the wash. Hang them to dry. If they dry before stain is gone, get them damp again. <br /><br />Joanna- Nope. I mean, you could. Might cut down on the amount of rinsing. But I never have used it, and never had any bleeding after a couple washes/rinses. :)~ April ~ EnchantedDandelionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447208479972343818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8913314656341958467.post-23960795109031959652011-01-25T09:23:47.496-08:002011-01-25T09:23:47.496-08:00Very Very helpful!
