Pooperific

Don't you hate it when poop can ruin your whole day...well in the midst of being up to my elbows in spot removers and laundry detergents (all to no avail) my trusty memory came to my rescue. I remembered once upon a sunny beach day when my sister-in-law (thanks Susie) mentioned the magical ingredient for pesky baby poop stains. I tried it out and must share it with all of you new moms...

This is how yesterday went down.


Notice the LARGE poop stain. So here is where the magic comes in. First wet down the outfit...if there are large chunks, spread them out or rinse them off..

Then stick the outfit in the sun to dry... I thought this might cause some confusion so I put a couple of pictures here to help out.


And Voila.

The poop disappears.. If the poop has not disappeared re-wet the garment and repeat. Note the outfit is not necessarily clean at this point, you may be overcome with joy and want to fold up the onesie and put it back in the drawer or try it on you little one, daring them to try and poop again... but I would throw it in the wash for good measure.

Please feel free to share this little secret that should be kept secret no more.

On a side note you may want to enjoy the sun while you wait for the outfit to dry... try lounging in a pool and kick your feet up while you have a chance... next year they'll be old enough for grass stains... any suggestions?

This advice comes about a year too late for me Becca! I can't believe how easy it can be...and here I was all those times...with chemicals and scrub brushes...and God knows what else!?!
