The pasty poops

[DVMmomma]

I (somewhat apprehensively) searched for the word "pasty" and didn't come up with anything.

My BF kid has begun go dabble in solids and thus has a case of the pasty poops. Please tell me I can keep being lazy and just throwing the diapers in the wash after just a quick rince off? Or am I gross and I should stop that immediately?

Yeah, sounds like they've hit the peanut butter poop phase. Time to roll out the sprayer.

Yeah time to use the sprayer. Ours did pretty well as it uses quite a bit of force. However, our walls may have needed a wipe down from time to time.

Glad to know it's not just me...

Get a SprayPal (or be cheap green and make one of your own like me). I crank the sprayer all the way up and power everything off without getting water everywhere.

How did you make your own? I'm picturing a clipboard inside of a Trapper Keeper. Lisa Frank Spraypal!

It's not attractive at all but gets the job done.  You can make it fancy by adding snaps and stuff like the SprayPal but I didn't do that.  I store it in an oval bucket.

Thanks! I remember seeing the spray pal in a video and thinking it would be simple to make it for cheap.

I have a spray collar, it seems to wok really well at preventing splashback, even if it does make the sprayer look like it's wearing a "come of shame".

I made my own spray pal, but it was a disaster. It just wasn't big enough, and the clip wasn't strong enough. When I dropped a whole diaper into the toilet while spraying, I decided the DIY pal had to go. I was pretty bummed, too; normally I'm quite handy.

Thanks! I'll be looking into a sprayer tomorrow. Just did a load and used the slop sink in the basement to get most of the poop off first. Yep. I'm disgusting.

We are at this gross phase too. We've been using a plastic spatula thing to scrape (while dunking/flushing) instead of spraying and it's working well.

We're ordering a sprayer from a co-op on FB to save some $, and using one of those big orange Home Depot paint buckets with part of the bottom cut out. LO isn't due till May, but I tend to prepare a bit too much in advance lol.
