i'm not sure what to do!
Little boy is 2 and a bit and has always used cloth nappies as i don't like disposables, and has been using the potty for almost a year now for poos. the last couple of months he's been interested in using it for wees too. A couple of weeks ago he started showing an interest in pants, so i bit the bullet and decided to stop nappies and start proper pants in the house and training pants outside.
He's perfect in the house, no accidents atall, everything in the potty. if we go out he's more hit and miss so i've been using training pants. He's getting htere though yesterday asked me to take him to the toilet when we were in a cafe! i figure he's going to have some accidents, but this is ok and will help him learn. it's summer, it dries.
Trouble is everyone else is just putting him in disposable pull ups! He gets looked after by nursery a day a week, a friend a day a week and goes to his grandparents regularly. and they all just put him in pullups as soon as he has an accident! to me this seems such a backward step. yes, they may look abit like pants, but they are a disposbale nappy and he's never worn them in his life. How is wearing disposbales going to help him potty train. I don't want to force the issue because i usually just accept that people care for him differently. But this is pissing me off
