Thread: What is your cloth wipes set-up of choice?

Started 1 month, 3 weeks ago by NorahsMom
I have usually wet all my wipes at once and stored them in a container and then they're ready to use, but after about a day or so, they have that stale rag smell. I need a better solution, so I'm just curious what other mamas are doing. I have done the dipping method and I really like that but I have a hard time figuring out where to put the dipping bowl so it doesn't get kicked over or dd...

I just grab a couple and run them under warm water on my way to changing ds.

I prewet all of mine, and I used to keep them in the warmer but since moving the plug isn't in a convenient spot so they're in there but not plugged in LOL We do not get the musty stale rag smell though - I went out of town for over a week with wipes there and they didn't stink when I got back!

I use the wipe warmer - and I use a solution (found a recipe on another site) w/ a little TTO in it and seem to have no issue w/ smell.

Haven't used cloth wipes... but the idea I was planning to run with was keeping the wash solution in a peri bottle and squirting the rags before using them. Since the peri bottle I have can close up all the way, I figured it would transport well, too. Like in one of those bottle holders in the diaper bag that I have no use for

I use a wipes warmer as well. I microwave 1 Washy Wafer in 1 c. water, dump it on the wipes and add another cup of warm water. I probably put new wipes/water in once per week. I've never had any bad smells, but it does have a anti-microbial freshness pillow thing that goes in the bottom, so maybe that keeps it from getting nasty?

We keep our solution in a foam pump, my absolute favorite way to use it! Our wipes are in an old sposie wipes box on the changing table.

I voted spray bottle, but I hate it because I'm standing there with a poopy, squirmy baby and spray, spray, spray, spray and its never wet enough fast enough. A lot of the time I have to just run to the bathroom sink and wet it, and run back. So I will definitely be using my peri bottle that I have lying around...
