DIY: Diaper Sprayer NOT

Until now, we've never thought we needed a diaper sprayer. As Jackson is almost 16 months old, his diapers have definitely gotten messier, and i really wanted to get them cleaner before they went in the wash. Also, he's using less diapers a day now, so we're going longer between washes, like generally 3 days. I just don't like the idea of the diapers sitting that long with poop on them. Ick. (We use a locking diaper pail, and have never had a problem with smell of the diapers outside the pail)

Here's our diaper sprayer:






The total cost was $40 for the Mother Ease diaper sprayer. To buy the parts to diy one would have been at least $50. I was actually surprised that diy was not the cheaper option here. Apparently prices on the parts to build it must have gone up since this diy tutorial was written. If you want to diy your own diaper sprayer, here's a link to the instructions.
If you want to buy one, the Motherease sprayer is available here.
 
We've been using the diaper sprayer for about a week, and it has made a difference. It is MUCH easier to get the diapers cleaner with this, than trying to use tp to get the poop off! However, before starting a child on solids,  i don't see much need for one. Obviously Jackson has been eating solid foods for almost a year, and i really wish we had purchased one of these earlier.
