When do I introduce pull ups?

[twons517]

My son is almost 3 and has recently starting asking me to use potty 2 to 3 times a day. He's doing a good job, but I'm curious to know what the next step is. When do I introduce pull ups? Should I even use them? Anyone with any advice is helpful! TY!

Go ahead and get them but don't use them unless you are out or he is asleep. Otherwise use underwear or if it's warm and you are in the house then just let him go without.

Sounds like he is potty training himself.

You don't. Pull ups are diapers that you can pull up and down. Enough said.

Buy big boy/girl panties from Dollar Store. Cheaper the better because some will go straight in the trash.

Start potty training and don't stop. Anytime you put them back into a diaper it starts the whole process all over again.

As for night time the first week I did use diapers only at night. After that I set my alarm and woke them up to pee.

Pull-ups were used by my son and niece when they first started the potty training process. When they got better & had less accidents they graduated to big boy/girl undies and then the pull-ups were only used for night time use & for a long day out. Also, Good Job! Looks like your child transitioned from diapers to potty use very easily! Congratulations!
