Has anyone had luck with Training Pants?

It would depend exactly how old your son is. From what I understand boys are easiest to start potty training around 2 to 2 1/2 years of age.

My son is 6 mos potty training will be creeping up on us too! I've been asking around and getting ones feedback as well, and the concensus seems to be let 'em free. Everyone has told me that about 2 yrs, when you think your toddler is ready, to just give it a week or two and let 'em go without anything. They say they'll usually just get the hang of it. Boys easier than girls, simple because it's a lot more fun.

Some ways to get them going is to let them see you do it, girls with Mom, boys with Dad, obviously, so they know exactly what they're suppose to be doing. I've also heard about putting floating toys like a rubber ducky in the toilet to help your young man practice his aim. Their suppose to encourage potty training and keep your bathroom cleaner. We all know what it's like cleaning up after those who already claim to be potty trained, we might as well give our little men as much practice now, as we can! And if your worried about it flushing down with you know what, there are also heat sensitive targets you can affix to the bowl called "wee targets". As your little one get's his aim down the heat from his pee reveals a picture on the target. Anything to make our lives easier, right!

Good Luck and keep us updated!

yes when I was a student,I have training pants,but I never have luck with it,I don't like sports so seldom do I wear training pants,Just when go to sports lesson then have to wear training pants.

I haven't tried the training pants...but I've been thinking of trying it.
My older one was potty trained quite early and I didn't have much trouble. He even refused to go in a diaper which I put on when we were travelling.
My younger one turns two next week...and he has started telling us most of the time when he needs to use the toilet. He goes to school in a diaper...but at home, I use clth diapers. But he's uncomfortable in those and pulls of the shorts and the diapers andis walking around naked most of the time.
Even though he does tell us now, there are instances when he goes a bit in his pants and that is why I wanted to try out the training pants for school. The sooner he is out of a diaper, the better (diapers are expensive here).
I think your idea of an extra cloth diaper might be better. Try it and let me know how that goes.
