How many pairs do you think I should have with the boys?
Re: training pants?
The most changes I had with a child who was ready was 3 in a daycare day.
I had 1 change every couple hours with children who weren't ready.
I'm thinking get the number of diaper changes per day worth of training pants for each.
We used big girl underpants with rubber pants over them for the first week or so. The rubber pants could be rinsed off and dried quickly for another use the same day. I would say that if they are ready, then three pairs of underpants each (per day) and maybe three pairs of rubber pants each (total).
Ridley now has 12 pairs of underwear because I do not want to be doing mini underwear laundry all the time.
Yeah I was planning on getting the gerber underwear and I have some rubber pants already and maybe some rubberized underwear for when we are out... I hear you on not wanting to do extra laundry... it must be awesome to not have to do diapers anymore!
How is Ridley doing with potty training?? Is she pretty much there or are you still working on it?
We still have diaper laundry because she is still in diapers at night. But she is in big girl underwear all day (without the rubber pants) and is pretty much there. She has an accident here and there, mostly when she is in the middle of something fun and doesn't want to leave it to go to the potty. I figure we will transition to underwear at night when she starts waking up dry, but that hasn't happened yet.
I feel blessed that it was so easy. I know that she must have been ready.
I think we got them at Target, but I was pretty sure that they would have them at Wal-mart until I read this post. They are in the aisle with the pre-packaged onesies. They are Gerber brand.
