Sun ought to bleach the dye out just fine. Doesn’t matter if they’re wet or dry, or what the weather is like; just pop them out in the sun and let it do the work for you.

ROLF but in sympathy. When it happened to me I borrowed a friends hand dyed indgo one… voila purple (gender neutral) In retrospect I should have gone yellow cause Orange would have matched my covers better

My mother did this to a load of clothes when I was younger. Not just something to wear under other clothes but clothes that my father and I were to wear on the outside. Some of the things were practically brand new too. The pink did fade from subsequent washings. Many washings. So by the time you potty train your child the pink should be all gone. Hope that makes you feel better.

Well,well…a few years ago I had a whole laundry become pink including everything from my white skirt to my son’s underwear!!!!! I thanked God though cause they all were evenly dyed and not just spots here and there-that’s something,isn’t it? I just saw it as a “renewal” to our wardrobe !??!!!

Hee hee, a red pail liner turned all my mf inserts pink, and that was nearly a year ago! I feel your pain, Autumn.

Oh my goodness! That’s so awful! I would cry if I did that. It’s so great of you to see the bright side of it! Making lemonade from lemons!!!

Ugh, I so hear you on that one. I have 2 boys in diapers, ages 28 months and 5 months. The microfiber inserts for my pockets and in my all-in-one diapers are all a light pink hue. Culprit, a red FOE bound diaper cover! I didn’t think much of throwing it into the laundry, I “thought” I’d done that before, but turns out I hadn’t… at least not on that setting (sanitize). Funny… it did nothing for my sanity to improve it, just about drove me mad! lol
I went out and bought some dylon dye remover and boiled all my inserts. They went from a bright pink to a very pale baby pink. I guess you live and learn and end up having to live with the results! Definitely won’t make that mistake again…

ROFL!
I’m sorry… I’m so sorry… I don’t meant o laugh but, you see….
on New Years eve… my husband fell asleep. I wasn’t happy (he said he’d stay up) so what do I do… I shop online. But, it’s almost midnight, I’m tired…
I order a diaper for my son.
I don’t know how or why, but I got the wrong color. I blame bumgenius for not saying
green, blue, pink.
Uh-huh. I got my package this week & you should have seen the look on my face…
my new flip diaper…
is pink. Bright pink.
My son has long hair, for crying out loud!
People are constantly asking “how old is she?” and I get mad.. “HE is 13 months”
and I go and buy him a pink diaper!
ROFL
our boys can match now : )

hopefully on your diapers, the pink will fade as you keep washing them.
(is that RIT dye remover safe for diapers?)
