And by cold, I mean ONLY cold. I know you're supposed to do a cold soak then a hot wash, but our washing machine, for some reason, recently decided that it didn't want to do hot water. We're not sure if it's the heater or the machine, but we don't have the cash to get someone to look at it. I Googled and found at least one person who says she washes on cold only, and it's fine. Apparently the water doesn't get hot enough in the washer to disinfect, anyway? But the dryer does?

Just trying to figure out how important that hot water is to the cloth diaper cleaning regimen.
