No...I would never wash Dck's stuff! I don't even rinse it. It never even occurred to me to do such a thing. I have a 2 year old who quite frequently has blow-out poops...really gross since he is a big boy...I throw everything into a plastic bag as is. I find it difficult enough to deal with the clean-up without worrying about the parents' side of it. The only thing I do wash is the bedding for the playpens and the changing mats which stay at my house...but those are just a part of my weekly laundry. I have never had a parent complain.
