I confess that if it's just a little dribble I don't change them Chat Icon

I think that is what I have to start doing. Between time, water usage, gas usage, and detergent usage I am going to go brokeChat Icon

I used to use these washable changing pads and put them under his head when he was sleeping. They were about the size of a burp cloth and had a soft top with vinyl on the underside. It was great bc I didn't have to change all his sheets every time he spit up. They came in a 3 or 4 pack from BRU.

As for clothes, I left the bib on DS for an hour or two after he ate. I hate doing laundry so I did everything I could to not make more for myself.

For the most part yes. If i can wipe it off then Sofia will continue to wear it until it gets really dingy Chat Icon

If it was a major one, I did. Now that they make Shout wipes, I probably would just use them.

I use a sheet saver on her sheets in her pnp and bassinet. it's terrycloth with vinyl underneath, got it from BRU.

I only change her clothes if it's alot or smelly cheese, otherwise i just wipe her with a wipe to combat the stink.

Thank goodness breastmilk doesn't stain her things or smell as bad as formula though! Her blowouts are what keeping me doing laundry every other day!

I hear your pain--my DS is the same way and I have been changing sheets non stop and it is not so easy to change the crib sheet.

Now, I use the shout wipes and rub it out. I wash only with major spit ups!

I just would put a receving blanket under his head when hes laying down, ( double it for extra protection) if he spits up.. thats all you have to wash. His sheets stay clean

I don't unless it is really all over her. She drink BM so it doesn't stain. She never really spits up while in the bassinett. If it is not a voluminous amount after she eats, it is only ever small amounts drooling out.
