Waterproof Training Pants; a Comparison
 | Many mothers, who may not know what changes have happened in the world of diapers in recent years, prepare for potty training by buying waterproof training pants. While our mothers or mothers' mothers may have managed to make these work while potty training their children, today there is a much better option. I'll tell you about that in a minute, but first, let's take a look at this 60-plus year-old product category. waterproof training pants What are waterproof training pants like? Waterproof training pants are step-in, pull-on potty training pants that include a waterproof layer. The material used as the waterproof layer is very often still the original plastic vinyl, like that used in shower curtains, that was used since they were invented over 60 years ago. Waterproof training pants are specifically for use in containing potty training "accidents" while actively potty training your child with regular or child-led potty trips. Waterproof training pants usually have very limited absorbency and will only contain at best one pee. Usually the absorbency is not enough to keep leaks from escaping even at that. Waterproof training pants are therefore only useful for toddlers who are already mostly potty trained as "accident insurance". They cannot be used for nighttime diapering of day-potty trained children. Waterproof training pants are typically quite "poofy" and don't fit well under pants designed for use with disposable diapers. Most do not have a way to open the sides to allow for changes without removing the child's pants and shoes or when poopy messes occur. What other option replaces waterproof training pants? The newer version of waterproof training pants are Antsy Pants™ Pull-Up Cloth Diapers. These diapers are actually potty training equipment; combining waterproof training pants' step-in donning with true diaper absorbency for pre-potty training use and the ability to increase absorbency for nighttime as well. • Antsy Pants™ Pull-Up Cloth Diapers last two hours or more for normal wetters. You can add absorbency to them for heavier wetters or for use as overnight diapers, too. • Antsy Pants™ are very trim and fit close to your child's body with no poufing, and they are very comfortable for your child. They fit more like a disposable diaper, so they go under famous-maker clothing with no problem. • Antsy Pants™ have side openings that are there when you need them. So if you are looking for the best waterproof training pants to use from now until your child finishes potty training both during the day and overnight, too, be sure to check out Antsy Pants™ Pull-Up Cloth Diapers, available at http://GetAntsy.com. waterproof training pants |
