Where can I buy crapy pull-ups?

[notanumber]

Can anyone recommend some crappy pull-ups? DS is in Pampers pull-ups atm and they just work too damn well - he pees and it's all absorbed right away and so he doesn't feel wet or uncomfortable.

I want him to feel wet and uncomfortable, damnit! He wants his nappy changed if he poos but couldn't care less about wees, you see.If he has an unpleasant wet sensation then he might be more amiable about using the loo.

Soooo....has anyone got any ideas on where to source really useless pullups from? Thanks!

PS - Please don't tell me to put him in pants. We've tried that on previous attempts. I know that you might have cracked it in a week and I just need to put him in pants and stick with it etc etc, but we are on our millionth attempt and did all that already (several times) so this is what we're going to try now.

What about those Bright Bots training pants? Would be a reasonable interim?

Using Bright Bots or any washable training pants is not much fun if they are still pooing in pants / nappy - v hard to get them off and poo squidging everywhere so I wouldn't really recommend that, also they don't contain full wees (only the little accidents of an almost trained child). I don't really think that there are any disposable pull ups that actually let them feel wet (whatever they may say on the packet). You could try putting pants on under a nappy (problem there is same as bright bots for poos though - changing yucky pants), or cut up some old muslin squares and stick them into the nappy. The truth is I'm not sure that they really care about the wet feeling anyway - DD2 was in washable cotton nappies and was never in the slightest bit bothered if her nappy was wet. Provided the wee is contained it doesn't seem to bother them - I think that they only really care when the wetness is sloshing around their legs all damp and sticky in wet trousers etc.

Sorry - not much help. Maybe stick with the pull ups and regular trips to the potty (without much expectation of success) for another 6 weeks or so then try full on potty training again?

do you mean pampers easy up pants?
If so these are designed to be nappys & stay dry
pampers feel n learn are supposed to feel wet but have never used them...

perhaps by a load of cheap pants from primark. Bin the poo-ey ones, and put them on under the nappy.

they will feel wet then

A friend recommended putting a folded bit of kitchen paper in the nappy, so when they wee, they feel wet.

Worth a try?

I have no idea i wanted to do the same thing with ds 1 and so went out and brought asda and tesco's own However much to my surprise they worked alot better and were alot cheaper then pampers! So it completely backfired on me. Wonder if they do smart price pull ups

Lidl sometimes carries a German brand which might be the sort you're after (sorry, can't remember brand name; it's a while since we were at that stage).

We always suggest folded kitchen roll as mentioned before - the ones that do not disintergrate when wet as a liner in the pull-up. You dont say how old he is but if he is ready for toilet training then try and get him in a good routine - once you have worked out roughly how long he can stay dry for (keep checking the kitchen roll in the pull up and make a note every time it is wet and replace with dry piece) then do a 'toilet time' programme - e.g if he can stay dry for 2 hours and was wet at 8 then just before 10 say toilet time and sit him on potty/toilet encourage to wee and then give loads praise/reward for use of potty - once in aroutine you can then fade out the prompts - it may sound a hastle but it does seem to work for kids when other attempts have failed.

Pant first, then pullups so he will feel wet but not leak.
