Blowout ?
My two month old has at least one diaper blowout everyday. It gets all over his clothes, car seat, blankets and me. At this rate I won't be able to give any of his clothes away, they all have poop stains on them. I have a spray and wash that I use to saturate the stains before I pre-soak them..The stains still don't come out. He wears huggies brand diapers. Not sure if theses diapers just truly suck or if I should go down a size. Also, what is a good remedy for stains? TIA
I agree with Jackattack. I needed to go up a size to prevent them. I even went to size 4 when my son was 20 lbs when it starts at 22 as he's chunky. We've still had the odd blowout but much more rare and less pee leaks too
ETA see other people also mentioned size up.
I also agree with no solids but think the person who said that may have read 2 years or 12 months or something. ... I hope
1) Go up a size in diaper, not down.
2) Resolve stain treatment rocks. Kicks OxiClean's butt, IMO!
3) Feed him more solids. If he's already on solids give him more cheese. Or less fruit/veggies. If he's breastfeeding, consider he might have food allergies, like lactose intolerance.
4) Try variations of #3 for at least 2-3 days at a time before you write it off....
5) Good luck!! ?
My youngest had a blowout every single day until he was about 6 months. It was horrible.
The only remedy for the clothes? Blue Dawn --the original. Put it on the stain. I'd hand wash until it came out (which was almost immediately) then I'd throw them in the wash. Got every single stain out. There was no stain stick/fighter pre-treater that worked for me. Only the blue dawn. It's also gotten every single stain of food (including spaghetti sauce). The only thing it hasn't gotten out in the last 2 years was some paint that exploded on my son's shirt while he was at school. I saw it hours after it happened and I think by then it was too late. Other than that the blue Dawn has worked on everything, including poop stains.
I was just going by the listed weight on the box. I haven't actually tried them. The blowouts are always up his back and they are almost immediately. When I hold him he lets out one big toot and it explodes all over. I'm going to try other brands. Thanks for the advice!
Do you know they are too big because you tried them or are you assuming based on the weight limit listed on the package? I ask because we use Huggies and I found that my kid did not/does not fall into the weight guidelines. He's ready to move up sizes well before he maxes out the weight limit.
Edited to add I think he could have moved to size 3 around 3 months. He's been in size 3's for a while, definitely the longest out of any size so far.
He's wearing a size two so the next size up would be way too big on him.
Pp, do I soak the clothes then lay them out in the sun?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
My daughter would have a blow out daily and someone on here posted about putting your stained clothes in the sunlight. Let me tell you it works! So if your baby is breastfed and they have a blow out just rinse off the poop or if you have clothes that you already washed, wet the stains with water and lay out in the sun. The poop stain should disappear. I've tried this on several onesies and even her rocker.
