If he's exclusively breastfed then you can absolutly just leave it where it is!! Breastfed baby poop is water soluble so it will rinse out very well in your washer and it hardly stinks so it won't cause major odor problems in your pail. Just run a plain cold water pre-rinse before washing and that will rinse out the vast majority of the poop! I never once rinsed or dunked any of my kids diapers while they were still breastfed. Take advantage of this while you still can!!

Now, once he's on solids or formula, then all bets are off and you will have to rinse off the diapers. In your circumstances I would definetly recomend a diaper sprayer. They attach very easily to the back of the toilet and don't really alter the actual plumbing itself. It takes just a few minutes to install and a few minutes to take off! You could also wait to see what kind of poop you'll be dealing with. Some people are lucky enough that the poop is nice and solid and just drops right off the diaper, perhaps with a little shaking. You can also look into disposable liners that you can flush down the toilet. The theory is that the poop goes on the liner and all you do is pick up the liner and flush it down the toilet. This works very well for some people but then you have kids like mine that always have soft poop no matter what they're eating and it inevitably runs off the liner and onto the diaper anyway... Some also use some type of spatula to 'scrape' it off the diaper (obviously reserving it only for that purpose) and into the toilet.
