When I used these on my daughter she did notice when she felt slightly wet. No leakage issues either which was a plus! They are expensive compared to normal nappies, thank goodness potty training only lasted a few days! They did actually last overnight as well.

My daughter used these easily. But I think you've just got to take the plunge at some point when you think they're ready. Toddlers will always have some accidents but that trains them too! DD was dry at 3 years.

these are expensive although can often be found on offer in the big supermarkets. The idea of being able to feel when they are wet really appealed to me, but made no difference to dd - anything like a nappy is there to be wee-ed in! They seemed to be comfortable and did not leak

We are currently getting our 18 month old ready for potty training, and this has involved buying training pants even though we haven't bought a potty yet. The hope being that she will get used to wearing 'pants' instead of a nappy, in theory!

A lady in Tesco recommended Pampers Feel 'N' Learn pants as they had worked well when she potty trained her little one. The idea of these pants is that they don't keep your child too dry so they can feel the wetness on their skin, which will let them know that they have been to the toilet.

I have been using them on my daughter for about 4 weeks now during the day and I think they are gradually teaching her because she will physically come and tell me when she is wet, which I don't think she would do if she was wearing a nappy which kept the dampness from her skin.

Another useful addition to these pants is the fact that the colour on the front will start to fade when it gets wet, this doesn't really mean anything to my daughter as she is still too young to notice but it's handy for me to spot when she has wet and try to prompt her into telling me she's done a wee - or worse!

These Feel 'N' Learn pants come in size 5, 6 and 6+ and I think this range of sizes are perfect for whatever age you decide to begin potty training. My daughter uses size 5, as she does in nappies, and these fit perfectly so I'd say the sizes are definitely accurate compared to the Pampers range of nappies.

Please be aware that although these pants will absorb small amounts of urine, they shouldn't really be used for as long as nappies between changes. The reason for this is that they are not so absorbant as nappies and your little one is likely to leak through to her clothes if you leave them too long. Also I've noticed that keeping one of these on her when wet will irritate the delicate skin around her nappy area much worse than nappies do, she has had very little nappy rash at all but she does occasionally become a bit sore after using one of these.

I love the fact that you can buy these pants in a choice of 'boy' or 'girl' designs, I am currently using the Strawberry Shortcake design which is attractive and very girly - just right for my little princess!

My daughter always seems very comfortable in these Feel 'N' Learn pants and they do not hinder her movement at all, she has been walking for over six months now so was already mobile when I started using them but perhaps the high leg cut of the pants could even help a child who is a lazy walker because they are certainly not as bulky as an average nappy.

These pants do not have tabs like nappies, they are stepped into and slipped up like a proper pair of pants. When you come to change baby you simply have to pull the sides of the pants to rip them open, this is handy now my daughter is a boisterous toddler because I can hold her down with one hand and undo the pants with the other. Unfortunately it also means that my daughter can also rip them open, not too bad when she's doing it to tell me she's wet but awful when she deposits a pile of baby poo on the carpet just because she can!

All in all though I think these are great, I really do think they are helping with potty training (such as it is at such a young age) and my daughter loves the pictures on the pants. They are quite pricy at around £4 for twelve nappies, although are very often on special offer in the supermarkets so I always stock up then.

I liked the idea of these, but in reality they just didn't feel wet enough so were ignored and played in happily.

A nice fit though if you ignore the feeling part....
