So Lost! Pull Up Diaper or Training Pants? Help Please!!

[genx77]

My 19 mo just recently began to start grabbing her diaper when she pees and letting me know right after she’s pooped. I plan getting her a potty tonight so she can start playing with it. As far as figuring out how to use it, that’ll probably take a while.
I’m totally lost where to start but since she absolutely hates to have her diaper changed anymore this is a great time to switch. Do I start out with pull up diapers like ME Sandy’s or Brightbots and pull up cover (can’t justify the cost of stash of AIO dips/AIO pull ups)? What’s a good pull up cover, should I just go with a Dappi? I’ve see reviews for pull up dips but not much on covers. Would she be in them long enough to be worth the cost, I of course can use them for the next lo. Or, do I just invest in a ton of the thick training undies, leaning towards Gerber or Potty Pattys, and Dappi covers?
I like the training undies route because it’ll probably be cheaper but fear they won’t be able to contain everything since she’ll clearly be peeing everything in them until it clicks that she needs to use the potty. Any advice/btdt, is appreciated. 

What are you using now? TBH I would just do nakey butt in the house and a dipe when you're out until she clicks. Then you can go straight to underpants.

She's in PFs now. Your suggestion might be a partial solution. DH has her most of the day and my mom the rest of the afternoon during the week. The running around nakey part DH would be fine with but the clean up I know he won’t do. I already had to get a separate bin for the poopy diapers since he won’t rinse them off, it grosses him out. He would be willing to show her and help her use the potty though. I’ll have to see if my mom would be up for full time nakey it at her house.
That’s got me thinking though, more nakey time equals less diapers. Maybe I only order enough pull up diapers for DH to use when he has her.

Any pull-up or training pant is a waste of money, b/c to the child, it is the same as a diaper and so they will poop and pee in it. When your child shows signs of readiness (which she is), simply keep her naked from the waist down and keep taking her to the potty (every hour) - in about a week, she will be potty-trained. I just pick a week when I am not busy and it is warm, and it is over quickly!!! If she still needs diapers at night, just use whatever you have now - it is fine to diaper at night, esp. at such a young age. Or try a side-snapping pocket for night time - like Green Acre Designs - that can be pulled up and down like underwear.

You know, you might get some better advice on the EC forum. I just wouldn't know what to do with a baby that young! DD1 is 3 and just now using the potty!
