Cotton Training Pants

Potty training is a process that parents dread. If it's handled well, however, it's surprising how quickly a child can gain mastery over the process. In fact, helping your child to feel in control of his or her own potty training is key. Make sure you use plenty of praise, so that you make the process as pleasant and positive as possible.

While it is common now for moms to use disposable pull-ups when it's time to potty train their toddler, many wiser parents are returning to cotton training pants. They have some remarkable advantages over their disposable counterparts. They may even help you to speed the process of potty training. For example, toddlers don't feel any difference between pull-ups and a diaper, so they can't feel when they've urinated. The feeling is unmistakable, however, when they're wearing cotton training pants.

They will quickly learn that using the potty will help them to avoid this unpleasant feeling. It's also a lot easier for mom or dad to see when an accident has occurred, so that she or he can take whatever action is appropriate as part of the training. Again, with disposable pull-ups, it's often not easy to tell, but with cotton your child will know immediately.
