Question

Do you double-wash the toddler vomit-soaked clothes/changing pad cover/carpet, or just burn it all?

oh god. I have never really double washed anything except when I forget and leave it in the washer for two days. Or, if there are still chunks. Then, keep washing! :)

Without any experience to draw from....I say burn it. Stay far away as it probably would not smell great, but it would probably look pretty cool!!

I double-washed. I think it did the trick. Man, I hope so. Gross.

If the stuff still smells barfy, try this: Put about a cup of baking soda in the washing machine, let it swish around for a minute to dissolve, and then let everything soak in there for a few hours or even a day. (If I go past the washer, I turn it on and let it agitate for a few seconds to make sure the baking soda stays mixed in.) Then run it the rest of the way. Then rewash with detergent.

Are you kidding? I was trying not to throw up yesterday while rinsing a cloth diaper. But we do use "Mother's Little Miracle" stain and odor remover for the rest of the work with our tough jobs. (Aldrich sells it) Good luck!
