Yellow Stains on Clothes/sleepers

I am due in 8 weeks with #3. This weekend, I went into the storage bins and organized all my old sleepers from Baby 1 & 2. I was surprised when I pulled them out of storage they all have yellow stains. I am certain these are from breastmilk spit up, but when I washed them to store them, the clothes were in perfect condition. How do I get the stains out, or will they ever come out? I was thinking of soaking all the sleepers in oxyclean????

What can I do next?

Sunlight! Just wash them and hang or lay outside. It doesn't even have to be warm and sunny, even on a cloudy day the UV rays will do their work.
Good luck.

Its funny you ask this bc I had the same issue. I assumed that they just looked like that when i put them away,but i had a 'blind eye' to it. Meaning I was used to seeing them that way so i thought they looked fine. Best combo I've found is spraying with shout and then sprinkling oxyclean on the wet area.

Good luck!

Oxy clean might do the trick. But unless the clothes were stored in bags, and then in bins sometimes that happens. And even though you wash the clothes sometimes the stains appear later. It happens to me occasionally. I always spray and wash my son's clothing before washing them.

Same happened to me! I didnt think i would keep things that were stained. I didnt try to get them out. I dumped them. : (

Soaking in oxi worked for me. I soaked them for a couple days and then washed them.
