- For us, the Pull-Ups were an expensive waste of money. They do NOT hold even
- AS MUCH as a regular diaper. I think they're mainly for daytime use when a
- child is trying to potty train. We went back to using cloth and got lucky in
- that our son didn't like the discomfort of a wet cloth diaper against him.
-
- We're even more lucky now in that we put our son to bed at around 8-8:30,
- get him up to go to the bathroom around 11:00 when we hit the hay, and he
- then sleeps through the night w/o any problems. In the past 8 months, he's
- only had one accident. We never pushed him into potty training, but got the
- book about training which has Jimmy for the boys and Sarah for the girls.
- Additionally, our son has a huge poster just COVERED with all sorts of
- different stickers he's received for going potty in the toilet.
