Cloth Diapering

Anyone use cloth trainers?

I looked back several pages and couldn't find anything. We were using BG 4.0s on our 2.5 year old until he started daycare. They won't take cloth, even after I showed them his dipes.

Anyway, it's getting time for potty learning, and the absorbency of disposables makes him not care about going in them. Cloth trainers are enough like underwear that daycare will take them, but I don't want to basically buy a whole new stash of $15 a piece trainers if they're awful

Anyone use them? Any recommended brands?

  • I had one set of flip trainers.  I wasn't impressed honestly.  They were still hard for DS to get up and down on his own and since they were so similar to his CDs, he just treated it like a diaper.  I also found the insert bunched up a lot.  

    We did better just skipping trainers/pull ups all together and went straight to underwear.

  • Blueberry gets a lot of love. But I personally hated them when some of my students wore them.

    I agree. Going to undies is easier. George and Gerber make a thicker kind of underwear but it won't catch everything. Just takes the edge off a mess. But go up a size as they shrink like crazy.

  • I have some blueberry trainers, but I only use them for naps because they're absorbent enough that he can pee in them and they won't leak so he's more likely to have an accident.
    Underwear or nothing at all is best for potty training.
