cleaning up!

[dylsmimi]

getting ready for full on potty training over the bank holiday (how exciting!!) going to stock up on lots of pants, trousers, stickers and kitchen roll but what cleaning product is handy to have to wipe up carpets/sofas etc?
any help and other tips will be appreciated - and good luck wishes!!

I am on day 5, I just use yellow flash cleaner for cleaning up at home, have a bucket and rubber gloves ready. I also got some antibac bathroom wipes and have a couple of old towels (or get some really cheap ones from the supermarket). We have put the drynites mats (which are meant for going on a bed at night, can get them next to the nappies in tesco) on our sofas with a towel on top to make it still nice to sit on, just can't face having to scrub the sofa. I guess we'll ditch them when she stops having regular accidents. They're good for chopping in half or in four to put in the bottom of the buggy/car seat too. I'd recommend at least 1-2 days with no pants on, my DD just wet herself in pants, but had few accidents once she was pant-free. Got into the pants on day 3.

drynites mats sound really handy - we have to have an 1hrs car journey on day 6 so they will come in really handy!
will stock up on the old towels too. Poor DS will be wondering what on earth is going on!!!
we have tried him in pants a little bit but he gets really upset when they get wet - more so than just weeing on the floor!
