Do I need pull-ups?

[lottytheladybird]

We're going to embark on potty training next week. Do I need pull-ups? If you used them, what did you think of them and how long did you use them for?

I didn't bother with pull-ups. They can't feel they're wet in them.
With dd it was easier to go to just knickers or now that it's warmer nothing.
It is stressful but I think pull ups are confusing because they're so like nappies.
Good luck!

agree pull ups don't help -just like nappies really -

We're on week two now and so far so good really. I stayed in for first 3 days, no pull ups but then it was back to nursery and a car journey, she wasn't reliable at all so we used pull ups for journey there and back. Over this weekend I've used them on trips out, they are pretty good as they have a guide on the front which shows if they are wet at all, so I could tell she hasn't been. This then gave me the confidence to go pull up free on journey today, no problems. So basically IME we used them just for journeys and trips out (after first week), I don't think it's confused her, she still asks to go to the potty even in pull ups. Good luck!!
