Baby puke, spit up, or overfill seemed to have "melted" into whatever fabric it landed on. I would always wash it right away, but still this problem arose. I guess it has to do with the (non) breakdown of the proteins found in milk. So I read up on how to get the smell out and this was the most popular fix.
Plain old VINEGAR
I was eager to get home from Target today so I could test it myself. I just finished the load of stinky clothes (I used about 1 cup and my regular detergent) and I am quite impressed with the results. The smell has subsided greatly (if there at all). What a cheap fix! Hope that may helps some of you mama's out sometime, it did me!
Other handy uses for vinegar. (he suggests stuff like: insect repellent, first aid, cooking, and cleaning!)

I'm sure you've also discovered by now that they can also get some "crud" in the folds of their neck when they are this little...old milk, spit-up, it's all gross and stinks to the heavens! That all goes away when they can really hold their head up well. It totally grossed me out with Ava and I vowed it wouldn't happen with Carter, but he just got a bath this morning because I couldn't take the stench from his stinky neck :) Oh the wonders of motherhood...
