Anyone tried Feel & Learn Nappies?

[mandymoo]

If so, what are they like??

I haven't tried these as both of mine are potty trained however at night, ds still wears a nappy and quite often soaks through it and his pyjamas/sheet. I think he knows when he needs a wee but is too lazy to get up (he loves his sleep!) and I was sure it was happening first thing in the morning.

We've recently switched him to the cheapest nappies we could find and in 2 days he was saying he didn't want them on anymore and would quite happily get up and do a wee (obviously didn't like the wet feeling!) so I guess these 'feel and learn' nappies would work in this sort of situation.

Wow - some friends from the UK who were visiting managed to bring us some.... am going to try then with dd1. She does now tell us now and then when she needs a wee - not being too strict about toilet training just at the moment - was going to wait until the summer.

Tried the cheapest nappy trick - dd1 not concerned with it at all.

I did email pampers and ask if they could send a sample and did they have plans to relaese them in Aus and they replied basically sayin g- NOPE no plans and if I wanted some I had to get someone in the US or the UK to send me a packet!!!

will let you know how we go with them.

Can I dispel a myth please, urine on it's own does not cause nappy rash. It's caused by a combination of urine and faeces that react and then damage the skin.

Probably if you see a slightly red bottom, your child is reacting to a change of chemicals in the nappy. This sometimes happens when you switch (with both cloth nappies and paper nappies). Believe me a babies bottom can cope with being in contact with urine (which is sterile).
