Dosage:We advise starting with half the recommended dose of detergent for the load size and water hardness and working up from there. The amount of detergent needed is dependent on load size, machine type and water hardness. Soft water needs less detergent to be effective and hard water needs more - possibly up to a full recommended dose. Vest extenders are simple yet very clever, they increase the length of a normal size baby vest. An invaluable accessory for those using cloth nappies, they help extend the life of your baby's vest and help prevent compression leaks from tight vests. Sanitisers:We do not recommend using sanitisers with your nappy wash. Sanitisers will affect the elastic and Velcro components and shorten the life of your nappies. Store dirty nappies in the nappy pail, separating any washable boosters, inserts or liners and closing the Velcro tabs over on themselves. When you have a load ready, put them in the washer on a 30˚ wash with half the recommended dose of detergent, give them an extra rinse and air dry. That's all there is to it.

This trial is not eligible for sanitary products, clothing, clothing accessories and clearance items.Reusable nappies are usually bulkier than disposables, especially boosted night time nappies. This can make standard baby vests tight or too short to easily popper up underneath the crotch. Vest extenders allow extra room for a cloth nappy or just to accommodate a tall/long baby. Fabric softener:Do not use fabric softener in your nappy wash - it will coat the fibres and inhibit absorption. Vest extenders popper to the existing poppers at the bottom of the baby vest and add approx 4 inches (10cm) to the overall length. Why do I need a vest extender? The above is all most parents need to know but for the few parents who need it we've included the sum of our knowledge below:

Tight fitting vests can be the cause of compression leaks with reusbale nappies, particularly those made of microfibre. The Little Lamb vest extenders provide additional room to help prevent any pressure being applied to the nappy underneath.
