i have thought of perfect compromise

those tighter boxers with lycra instead of cotton?

Lonelymum · 08/01/2006 20:22

Still messy to clean up (you have to go down the legs). Pants are much easier.

So any advice on getting them dry at night, or is that a different thread?

What don't even try?

DD1 was dry at night at 2, ds1 still in pull ups at 5.5 and dd2 at 4, costs a bloody fortune.

OOh ok, I won't worry about it for now. Too bloody knackered to be messing around at night anyway.

pooka · 09/01/2006 11:09

Have just been on first trip out without nappy - ds has rash so went to see HV and have to go to GP tomorrow.
dd did pee before we wnet out. Took potty. No accidents. Clothes I thought she'd grown out of because too snug round middle now fit!

codthemod · 09/01/2006 11:19

iw odulnt drag a potty around
gett ehjm to go in a bush or on the loo

spursmum · 09/01/2006 12:37

Update for Cod. Ds has been home an hour and has had an accident. The good news was that he was in the bathroom so I think he has realised what I want him to do and was trying to get to the toilet.
An improvement I think.

pooka · 09/01/2006 12:47

Not many bushes (at least other than in people's front gardens - and I think using them would be frowned on) here Cod. Rather urban.
Asked 2 times to pee on loo, and has. Then did a poo in her knickers Never mind. Said "these knickers don't have a hole" asif she was expecting the stuff to just disappear!

Nemo1977 · 09/01/2006 12:49

ooo im along for the ride aswell. started with ds on thurs but we havent ventured out of the house yet in undies and he also hasnt pooped on potty caught him hiding under the table in his nappy from bedtime pooing before so he obviously knew.

fairydust · 09/01/2006 12:50
