LolliDoo™ FAQ's

Q. How much water is used to wash LolliDoo™?
A. The amount of water used to launder cloth diapers at home is about 50 to 70 gallons of water every 2-3 days; this is about the same as a toilet-trained child or adult flushing the toilet five to six times a day.

Q. What do I do with the solid messes in the diapers?
A. You can do one of three things with baby poo. Since our spetic and sewage systems are set up for human waste, you can throw the diaper, poo and all, right into the washing machine. Some people choose to spray off the poo with a hand held sprayer in the toilet. Founders Alison and Melissa just plunk the solid poo in the toilet and the wash the diaper.

» It is illegal for solid waste to enter our landfills, so even disposable diapering families should put the poo in the potty.

Q. How do I store soiled diapers until wash day?
A. LolliDoo™'s preferred method for storing wet and soiled cloth diapers is to place all cloth diapers in a dry pail.

Q. How many diapers do I need?
A. It depends on how often you want to do laundry. A newborn will use approximately 10-12 diapers a day, while an older baby will use 6-8.

Q. What should I do if my diaper leaks?
A. It is rare that a LolliDoo™ Diaper should leak, if it does, make sure that you have laundered your brand new LolliDoo™ at least three times on HOT. Then check that your diaper is sized correctly; fleece is very stretchy so make sure it is fastened without any gaps. If your diaper is still leaking perhaps there is a detergent or mineral residue that needs to be stripped from your diapers.
