Anyone using pullups?

We are almost out of diapers and I need to buy some more and was thinking about pullups. DS has a lot if interest in the potty. He goes on it once a day and about every 3rd time he does pee pee. He has pooped on the potty once about 2 weeks ago.
My friend who has a 3 year old boy and a 2 year old girl uses them on both but I think it's more of a function of the girl what what her brother has.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Re: Anyone using pullups?

  • We don't use them, but C is not even remotely ready for PTing. 

    However, I've heard bad things about pullups. Basically, they don't really work as well as a diaper, and they are a PITA to change - so unless your LO is really ready

  • We were using pullups for outings when PTing. We went straight to undies and training pants. They were to much like a diaper for DD.

  • We use them with my older son. Pull ups are much easier to change now. They have the tabs like diapers, but go on like underwear.

  • We didn't use them with DD and don't intend to with DS.  Too many kids use a pull up just like a diaper so I personally feel it just prolongs the potty training process.  If they are ready, then put them in undies.  If they aren't, wait and

  • We have two packages that an excited grandmother got her for Christmas. We are potty training currently, but I find that the pullup doesn't make much difference for her, so I doubt I will buy more.
  • We aren't potty training yet, but I've been told by several people that just using underwear is more effective than pullups.
