Cloth trainer/pull up rec

MrsHughesNC

We were still doing pull-ups overnight for Holly. She does great all day, and during naps, and has for months, but was still wetting her pull-up about once a week overnight. However, she started getting a rash from the pull-ups--Huggies were a no go pretty much from the start because they irritated the skin around her waist and legs. Pampers worked great at first, but then started giving her diaper rash.

So I bought a few of these from Etsy. Not only are the cute, but they seem to be working great. No more rash, and they're very soft, like undies. I will say that in the two weeks we've used them, she hasn't had an all out accident overnight, so I guess I can't speak for the absorbancy of a full pee yet. But they're supposed to hold one accident (the reviews seem to support this), keeping sheets and clothes dry. She has had a couple of "dribble" accidents, and there's been no leakage, which is great. I think she can feel that she's started to pee in them, and will then stop.

Just thought I'd share!

Cute! Glad they seem to be working out so far!

Thanks for sharing!  I really like those and it is great because they really are more like underwear than a pull up, and you get to re-use them!  I think we need some now since DH is scared of going anywhere without a diaper when we start fully training.

Thanks for sharing those!  I am thinking of getting some for Liam.  He is like Holly, mostly dry overnight, but wetting his pullup maybe once a week.  The pullups are okay, but the butt on them is so narrow, it looks like he has a constant wedgie LOL!  And his last few nighttime pees have resulted in a wet bed, regardless of the pullup.  I might have to request some 4t-5t for my big boy though LOL!

Same here!  I considered getting cloth trainers when Eli was first PT, but figured they would be a waste of money.  Now, a year later, we're still buying Pull Ups!  He still wets at night once or twice a week too, only his accidents are full blown pees.  So I've been wondering how absorbent the cloth trainers really are.

Yeah, I'll let you know how they hold up to a full pee. I hope they do well--I really like them and am tired of buying pull-ups!
