I've never had issues with staining but my dd is almost a year so we switched to regular soap I stead of the baby! She's done fine with it! But maybe you could use a stain remover and the dreft!?

 this was a tip that was past on to me by a friend of mine. I have not used it as of yet sense my grand daughter is not born yet and my grandson is a little to old to try this with.  She says it works great.

1/2 cup of Hydrogen Peroxide

1 Tsp. Amonia

mix the 2 together and apply a little to the stain and let it sit a bit. then you just launder as usual. She says you can use this on color fast and white cloths as well. She uses it on all the families cloths as well. I would just put it in a small spray bottle to keep on hand.  I fyou try this let me know how it works

I have some other tips I have looked up as well...

Milk... add a little water to the milk stain guessing like formula then sprinkle meat tenderizer on the stain and let it sit for a bit then wash as usual. The tenderizer helps break down protein and that is what milk is made of .

Drool... Fels Naptha soap and Borax, wet the drool stain and rub some of the soap into the stain and add some boraz as well and then work into the stain till gone and wash as usual

Juice stains...

equal parts of water and Vinegar then a dash of dish soap, shake it up to mix well them pour it on the stain let sit i would say 20 minutes or so then I would rinse it out to see if I had to reapply if not launder as usual.

that is what i have found so far for baby laundry tips. Hope you can all use them. Let me know how they work
