Gerber All In One Waterproof Trainers – 2 Pack Boy’s Colors – If your looking to contain those little accidents and are considering the cloth training pants/vinyl pants combination these may also work for you. The inside layer of absorbent 100% cotton will contains about a single urine event and will give the little tyke a chance to make it to the potty without messing cloths.

Depending upon the child they may work at night and during naps. These are made with 100% cotton inner layer, an absorbant polyester core and a vinyl outer cover. 2 pairs per package for $10.49.

Potty Scotty Training Pants, Large, fits 34-39 lbs.

August 14, 2009 · Filed Under Personal Training · Comment 

These potty training pants have been specially designed so that they can be pulled on and off by the toddler, without adult help. Not only does this increase the chance of getting to the potty on time, but it also makes the whole process much more independent, which is the goal of this potty training system. They have an absorbent center panel that contains the accidents, but will make your toddler uncomfortable and therefore increase her awareness of her excretory function, especially when compared to diapers and pull-ups. The potty pants feature breathable side panels, wide rib leg bands for a comfortable fit and a center panel with fiber sponge for super absorbency. These padded potty training pants are thicker and more absorbent than Gerber training pants. I highly recommend these potty training pants. They are our best sellers. These training pants are not waterproof and if you are worried about messes and leakages coming through the potty pants, we recommend using a waterproof cover over them. Care Instructions for Padded Potty Training Pants : Machine wash in warm water with like colors. Use only non-chlorinated bleach when need. Tumble dry on low to medium. Do not iron. Do not dry clean. Center Side Panels: 100% Cotton Interlining: 100% Polyester. NOTE: Washing these once before using them increases the absorbency of the padding!!
