    Cloth training pants?

    Does anyone have any good recommendations for cloth training pants? DS appears to be wanting to TT.

    I'm not quite sure what I should be looking for in a training pant or how many I should have. CC will help with the training as well so that makes it a bit easier on me & DH.

    I've had a look at some close parent, bummis, happy heiny and super undies - online only though. I want some like undies as DS wants to pull down pants for the potty and go.

    I guess this means I have to buy real undies soon

    Hey, DD2 is TT as well, it is just scary how quick they are growing!

    I have made her a couple of pants and a friend has given me some terry pants from b&l. she has worn nickers as well and is so excited about the whole going to the toilet thing. She is going at her own pace though and CC is being brilliant in supporting her and us.

    GL !!

    If he wants to get into TT you could just go straight to jocks. If you want some with absorbency you can get some at Franklins! They are great - they have a reinforced crotch with plastic in between the layers. They don't hold a whole wee but they won't leak as readily as normal jocks.

    I think we're ready for wees but not the poos. I'm not 100% sure I can get jocks that small for him - just starting to move from size 1 to 2 in pants.

    Unfortunately no Franklins in SA anymore; will try the B&L ones Cat.

    Best and Less have the Terry Ones.

    Bright Bots used to have them with the plastic lining under the terry - I used to get them from Myer.

    Leckert I've tried a few and the best were motherease and the best & less ones. For the price, go the b&l ones.

    But - FWIW - my DD would just wee out them anyway, they really don't hold much, so we went straight to undies. Target have size 2 undies that fitted DD.

    Kmart have some great terry ones too, just like normal undies but made out of toweling for extra absorbency

    I have bright bots, got them from baby bunting. Worked really well but they are noisy when the kids move around.
