Morning

DD2 (nearly 3!!!) decided yesterday she didn't want to wear her nappy, as she had sat on the potty and done a wee. I put her in knickers, and between 3.30 and 6.30, wee'd on the floor 4 times.

She is due at nursery this morning. Whilst I don't want to knock her, I also am not entirely sure she is ready!

So, pants or nappy??

Thanks all

Nappy with pants over the top. Then today, buy some pull-ups

Do you not think pull ups confuses them, as it still feels like a nappy?

I do, but if they think they are ready and are not quite, a pull-up is easier to get up and down like pants.
I didn't use pull-ups on ds1.
We started potty training 2 weeks after his 2nd birthday and he wore a nappy while we were out and was naked waist down when at home, after 3 weeks, we ditched the nappies and moved to pants.

I wussed out! I put a nappy on her and thought she might complain, but no.

I will start properly next week, but I need to get stuff sorted.
