luvmylilangels Posted March 5, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I will be sailing on the Allure with a child who is still in diapers. I was just wondering where do you throw away their BM diapers. I would hate to have to keep it in the cabin until they come and clean it each day. I will be purchasing those scented diaper garbage bags but just wanted to know if there was a place to dump it other then in the cabin. Thanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrise&set Posted March 5, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I used those scented bags too and it worked just fine. They empty the trash twice/day. Your room steward will appreciate the scented bag too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amistad Posted March 5, 2011 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2011 When my grandson was little we took ziplock bags and put the diapers in those before throwing them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvmylilangels Posted March 6, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted March 6, 2011 what are the scented bags? where do i get them? thanks :) There are a few brands. I like Sassy the best. You can get them at Toys r Us, Babies r Us, Walmart, Target, Amazon, and I get mine at Diapers.com. If you decide to get them at Diapers.com you can use code LUVM5540 and get 15% off your first order. Hope this helps. :D Sassy Disposable Scented Diaper Sacks Prince Lionheart Knot it Munchkin Arm & Hammer™ Diaper Bag Dispenser & Bags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrise&set Posted March 6, 2011 #8 Share Posted March 6, 2011 OT - these are great for walking your dog too :D. The baby ones are cheaper than buying the dog specific ones at the pet store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayakstef Posted March 7, 2011 #9 Share Posted March 7, 2011 We use the plastic bags that the newspapers are delivered in - which we use at home also. They are free and work great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twelvevman Posted March 7, 2011 #10 Share Posted March 7, 2011 We always used the disposable diaper sacks for a BM diaper. We used them in the cabin or in any of the restrooms if we had to change a diaper out of the cabin. I was suprised to see that they had diaper genies in all of the family restrooms on the Epic.

hey_al Posted March 7, 2011 #11 Share Posted March 7, 2011 We always flush the poop. Much less stink in the trash :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soleil09 Posted March 8, 2011 #12 Share Posted March 8, 2011 We paked each individual outfit in ziploc bags and used those to get rid of the diapers. However, I'll be going the scented bag route this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahamill Posted March 8, 2011 #13 Share Posted March 8, 2011 We are bringing the scented bags but I like the idea of flushing as much of the poop as I can. I think I will try that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a very good idea! Never even thought of that. Then with the scented bags we should have no problems. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkportersat Posted March 8, 2011 #15 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I will just be throwing my sons away in the bathroom trash.....they clean the rooms so often it won't be there long. I seriously do not want to pack one more thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aelittleb Posted March 10, 2011 #17 Share Posted March 10, 2011 you are actually supposed to flush all poop down the toilet and not throw away a diaper filled with poop. and i agree with tkportersat, they empty the trash so often (in your rooms and the public rooms) that the smell really shouldnt be a problem. it takes a while for the smell to build up and be a problem. we use cloth diapers at home and i do laundry about every 3 days. the dirty diapers (w all the poo flushed down the toilet) sit in a plastic trash bin with no cover and very rarely do you notice a smell at all!! plus using all those baggies and plastic bags really is a huge waste. if your squeemish about playing w a poopy diaper to get the poop in the trash they make flushable liners that you just lay in the diaper. just dangle the diaper over the toilet and the liner falls out!! http://www.cottonbabies.com/product_info.php?cPath=37&products_id=702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lena B Posted March 11, 2011 #18 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Please don't flush anything but body functions and ship toilet paper down the toilet. It will back up the toilets for a lot of cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gemcrusier Posted March 11, 2011 #19 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Please don't flush anything but body functions and ship toilet paper down the toilet. It will back up the toilets for a lot of cabins. I second that ! It is so funny that young parents think flushing poo is ewww . You guys have it easy disposible diapers we had cloth with POO you had to rinse out and wash the darn things a pile every day , and also sterilize the bottles yes it was work to have a little one many years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2kiddomommy Posted May 27, 2011 #24 Share Posted May 27, 2011 For those of you mommies who have recently been on the Freedom of the Seas.... do the room stewards leave extra trash bags in the bottom of the trash can in case you need them for a really bad diaper or more than one person gets seasick at the same time?

marseea4 Posted May 27, 2011 #25 Share Posted May 27, 2011 We just got back with cruising with our six month old and we took plenty of ziplocks and plastic bags. Made it so easy and we never smelled anything. And since they empty trash twice a day if you'd like them to, it stays clean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
