It’s one word that can strike fear into the heart of any parent. We’ve all heard the nightmare stories of reinfections and constant cycles of treatment… Baby YEAST Rash…

But let’s get a little real for a minute.

The nightmares we read about online and hear from other parents are sometimes a little exaggerated. Kind of like ‘the fish was **THIS** big’ stories that fishermen sometimes tell. ;)

If you handle this the right way the first time, you shouldn’t have an unending cycle of baby yeast rash infections on your baby.

How to Get Rid of Yeast on Cloth Diapers

It’s important to know if the rash you are dealing with is really yeast in the first place. Other rashes often look similar and can be misdiagnosed as yeast. Consult this post for descriptions of a few common baby rashes and see if your little one’s rash looks anything like one described.  If you can’t figure out what a rash is or it isn’t clearing up, call your pediatrician.

If you are looking for more information on treating yeast on your baby, you should check this out: Killing the Dreaded Yeast Monster.

How to get rid of the yeast on cloth diapers: 

You need to decide if you are going to continue to use your cloth diapers or go with disposables during treatment.

  • If you use disposable diapers, you only need to treat the cloth diapers once.
  • If you choose to stay in cloth, be sure you are using a liner with the treatment cream if it’s a prescription or not otherwise CD safe. A cut up t-shirt will work as a liner. You can also purchase a disposable liner that is something like this. You will have to treat cloth diapers each time they are washed while treating the yeast on your baby. Depending how often you are washing and how long the treatment lasts, this could be 2-3 times. Continue to treat diapers for at least 1 week after yeast rash has completely healed to prevent a recurrence.

Every family’s needs are different and either way will work. Go with what works best for you and your family. There is no wrong answer here.

How to treat your cloth diapers with bleach

Chlorine Bleach: Chlorine bleach is a common disinfectant. The downside is that it is a caustic substance (able to burn or corrode). Use caution when handling it. Take care to not splash any or directly inhale the fumes. 

Dilute the bleach in the water PRIOR to adding the items you are disinfecting. Use the bleach tray on the machine if it has one.

Please note that PUL is colorfast, so it won’t fade. However, any knit or cotton fabrics may fade even in a properly diluted bleach solution.  This can include items like cloth wipes, WAHM diapers and fitteds for example. You might want to consider an alternative if you have those sort of things to disinfect. 

Bleach is the second most common disinfectant after hot water.  While it kills yeast, it doesn’t kill yeast spores. If you are treating for yeast I actually recommend the grapefruit seed extract method listed below. If you are interested, you will find the documentation I used to arrive at this recommendation here.

You must use bleach that has at least 5.25% sodium hypochlorite. You will find this info on the label. Bleach also starts to break down over time and becomes less effective. You can store it for about a year at room temp before that begins to happen. If the bottle is older than a year, purchase a new one. If you are unsure how old the bottle is, locate the production code. It is often stamped on the neck of the bottle. You can then use this article to decode the made on date. 

How to Disinfect using Chlorine Bleach

This should be done on clean, already washed items. Do not add any other additives such as softeners or detergent. 

Step 1: I recommend using warm or hot water (although cold will work.)  You may have read that bleach disinfection must only be done in cold water. That is not the case as it will work in any water temp. Click here for further documentation on this. Dilute your bleach in the water FIRST before adding your cloth diapers. Be careful to not splash the bleach. Use the bleach tray on the machine if it has one.

Step 2: Soak for 15 minutes. Longer soak times are unnecessary and can cause premature wear to your diapers.

Step 3: Rinse diapers until bleach odor is gone. You can do this with hot rinses in the washing machine or in your tub under the facet. You may have to rinse a few times to get the odor completely out. 

Here are the dilution ratios:

Top Loader (Non-HE):  Small- 1/3 cup, Medium – 1/2 cup, Large/XL- 3/4 cup
Top loader   (HE)           Small- 1/4 cup, Medium- 1/3 cup, Large- 1/2 cup
Regular Bathtub            1/4/ full – 1/4 cup, 1/2 full- 1/2 cup
Garden Bathtub             1/4 full – 1/2 cup   
Bucket:                             1 Tablespoon per gallon of water
 
If you have a front loading machine I recommend disinfect using a bucket or bathtub instead. 
 
Tip: Wear gloves if soaking or rinsing in a tub, sink or bucket. Make sure all items are fully submerged in bleach water. Agitate the diapers around gently before soaking to make sure everything is wet and mixed in properly. 

Grapefruit Seed Extract: synthesized from the seeds and pulp of the grapefruit, it’s a very broad spectrum microbicide, bactericide, fungicide, antiparasitic, and anti-viral.

It is expensive, so the other options on here are far more economical for other disinfecting, but when it comes to yeast – this is the single most effective way to stop it in its tracks on your clothing and cloth diapers. You can buy it at your local health food store or on Amazon.

This is not a natural alternative. There are limited studies, but the existing ones point to the preservatives in GSE and not the actual GSE being the disinfectant. So I will say that this is an effective option, but not a natural one. GSE will not fade non-colorfast knit and cotton fabrics making it a good alternative to bleach.

For more evidence of GSE as a disinfecting agent, please see:

  •  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12165191
  • https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15610620
  • https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20411504
  • http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/jf0514064

How to disinfect using Grapefruit Seed Extract

For disinfecting: 2 tablespoons of GSE for up to a large load of laundry. This may be added right to the main wash cycle with whatever detergent you are using. Wash and dry normally.


Hydrogen Peroxide: This is a liquid oxygen bleach and breaks down into water and oxygen.

Use a 3 % solution (what is normally available at most drugstores).

Be aware that hydrogen peroxide can damage fabrics the same way bleach can, so test for colorfastness and never pour directly on your clothes or cloth diapers.

How to disinfect Baby Yeast using Hydrogen Peroxide

This should be done on clean, already washed items. Do not add any other additives such as softeners or detergent. 

Step 1: Use 1 cup in the bleach cup of your laundry machine for medium loads and 2 cups for large loads. If you have no bleach tray, add directly to water BEFORE adding cloth diapers.  Use hot water and a wash cycle that is at least 30 minutes.

Step 2: Rinse with hot water. 

Tip: If you don’t have a cycle long enough you can either stop the cycle or soak in another vessel such as a bathtub (1/2 regular bathtub is equal to a large load). 

 

**If you can’t use bleach or GSE due to sensitivities, you can also use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect. Please go here for more details and directions.**

I’d love to hear from you! Has your child ever had a yeast infection? How did you effectively treat it?

    I tried bleach but her rash kept coming back once we got her back into them so I just did a GSE wash. Is it just a one time wash and then after 14 days I can put her back in them?

      Yes that is correct. But if you are treating the diapers don’t put them back on until a week after the yeast rash has cleared.

    I did the bleach soak as directed, and this ratio ruined all my diapers that were in there. I shop small and pay for certain prints or certain tie dye colors, and this post just made me ruin all the colors in my new diapers. I’m super upset.

      I did state that GSE is an alternative to bleach as it won’t fade non colorfast fabrics. PUL is colorfast. But knit fabrics aren’t. Even with normal longer term washing, many knit fabrics naturally fade a bit. I am sorry that happened to your diapers. I’m going to add another line about the colorfast issues to make it even more clear.

    So GSE can be used instead of bleach? Then I would just add the 2 tbsp into the detergent compartment with the detergent and run a hot cycle?

    I have a front load washer so a bleach soak would have to be done in the tub upstairs and transferring a load of wet diapers downstairs to the washer just seems exhausting so if I can just use GSE for a yeast treatment that sounds so much more appealing.

    I have a he front load washer, after my initial bleach soak can I just add bleach to my washer with each load or do I need to continue a bleach soak every time I wash? I really don’t want to ruin my diapers by using bleach in my washer and was just wondering if anyone has done it this way without messing up the diapers, also how long do I continue to bleach for?

      If the cycle is at least 15 minutes it should be ok. You’d need to bleach after each wearing until the rash is completely gone plus a few more days. So it’s usually two weeks or so. Bleaching is hard on the diapers. It’s something to consider when deciding what to do.

    When my triplets had yeast in cloth, I tried EVERYTHING to get it to go away. Bleach soaks (multiple times) did not work at all. I finally stumbled upon Grapefruit Seed Extract when researching ways to kill yeast spores and ordered a bottle. That stuff is a miracle! It’s the only thing that worked for us. It actually takes very little GSE to be effective. One small bottle has lasted us for over 2 years. (We’ve only had yeast once, but it was a bear; now we use the GSE for laundry and other disinfecting purposes when we have strep and other infections.) During the yeast breakout, I used 50 drops directly into the tub of the washer during the hot wash cycle. I also used 5 drops per ounce of water in my wipes solution to use on the babies. Diluted to that amount, it didn’t hurt the girls’ skin, and it cleared up the rash. AMAZING.

    My two year old has suffered with severe eczema in his diaper area. We’ve been to his pediatricians office more than 9 times and have literally been thru every doctor there. They all have suggested their own treatments,creams and oils. After switching to cloth his eczema calmed down but it was short lived. He screams and cries constantly and wakes up multiple times during the night from itching. This momma is at her wits end!!. I want him to enjoy being a “normal two year old!”

    I would love to try some of the Pooters Skin Therapy. My son has been battling yeast infections since he was born. He just turned 6 months and have had to keep using disposables till he gets rid of the yeast. Then we battle with reg rashes. I would love to keep using our cloth diapers and am wondering if this could be our solution!

    We will begin using cloth once our third little girl is born in July. Would be really nice to already have this on hand. Just in case.

    I’ve tried a few different brands of cloth diaper safe creams with my oldest and never really found one I loved. Now with baby #2 in cloth, I’m still tring new options and would love to give this a try.

      Is it possible the rash isn’t really yeast. Sometimes people need a pediatric dermatologist to get to the bottom of an ongoing skin issue. Good Luck!

    We are fighting eczema and we haven’t found anything that works yet. Trying to find a topical solution is becoming expensive. My son has gotten to the age where he can’t keep his claws off, so along with the dry itchy patches, he sometimes has sores. I feel so bad for him, I hope to find a solution soon!

      Katie, I am personally not a bleach user. I’ve never had the need. I’ve always found another way to deal with any issue I was having. As moms we always have so much going on. Our diapers shouldn’t add to our already heavy load <3

    I need this rash cream because my daughter gets yeast infections quite often and both of my kids share diapers so she ends up sharing the infection with her brother before I catch it. It’s extremely hard to get rid of the ones she gets. This would be an absolute blessing to us!

      Clearing your baby’s rash is important Laura. If you went to the doctor and he gave you an RX, it’s ok to use it. We all do whatever we can to keep our children healthy. I understand you want to try to stay as natural as possible. But if you don’t have anything else on hand, use what you have to heal. <3

      Try coconut oil! Straight raw organic coconut oil! A little goes a long way so don’t cake it on but it works! I’ve been prescribed Nystatin for my LO’s before and tried CO and got faster results for the littles! Which was better on me too since I didn’t have to feel so bad for it hurting them longer every time I had to wipe them with every diaper change. :)

    Thank you for actually providing good bleaching instructions. Yeast is nothing to mess with and glitter and prayer isn’t going to help it. There is entirely too much bad advice out there.

      Rebecca, Thanks for commenting! There is plenty of good advice out there as well. It is up to us as consumers and parents to do thorough research and use common sense before making a decision that affects our family. But remember there is never only one way to do anything. That is just not how the world works. Personally, if I were treating yeast I wouldn’t use bleach , I’d go the GSE route. :)

      So is it just me or does the GSE seem like the easiest way to go? Simply add it into the wash with the diapers and the yeast and spores will be eliminated?

I used All About Cloth Diapers when my oldest (now 5) developed an allergy around 6mo to disposable diapers. If it weren’t for this site, I would have switched back to disposables because I was having so many issues with fit and cleaning. This site really helped me to understand how to cloth diaper. I have used the big book every year even after my kids potty trained because there are so many amazing deals for everyday household and personal needs! So glad I found this site and the big book!

This is a great place to learn all there is to know about cloth diapers and the care of them. There is no right or wrong way to cloth diaper. All in one's may work best for one child but flats may work best for another child. You will understand how to care for your cloth diapers so they last you. There is a wealth of information on various brands and wool as well. Highly recommend!

All About Cloth Diapers website has a ton of information on cloth diapering. Any issue you may run into they have a post about it on their site. The all about cloth diaper chat group is also full veteran and new to cloth moms. You cant get any better resources when it comes to starting your cloth diaper journey. The owner is Jennifer is so helpful and spent a lot time making sure new parents have the information they need about starting cloth diapering their little one. I absolutely love this site and I'm a member of the group on facebook. You should definitely check out the site!!!
