nighttime potty training - recommendations?

[sara_m]

My 3yo dd is still soaking her diaper at night. However, the nighttime diaper is a major pain, as she wakes up wanting to pee, but getting her diaper on and off is a pain! Anyone have recommendations for a nighttime product that little one's can get in and out of easily? I have Imse Vimse training pants, but they don't hold as much as we need for nighttime. Even pockets aren't something she can put on and off herself, and ideally, she would like something she can manage on her own (very independent!). Thanks!

Is she soaking because she cannot get her diaper off? Or because she doesn't wake up until she's already going?
My son is 2.5, and he's started to wake up dry, but potty has to be the very first thing that's done upon wake up or else there is a pee-spolsion.

Maybe if you use the training pants and keep a potty in her room, she'll be able to use it in time? We love the Fisher Price Froggy Friend potty, because an independent kid can use it without any help at all, and use it quickly. Speed is important with little bladders! DS can use the regular toilet, but it's a bit much with the step stool, seat reducer, ect.

Sometimes she wakes up, but usually not. She's definitely not ready yet to be out of diapers at night, but I need something she can get off for those times she wakes up. I've never used disposable diapering, so I really want to avoid Pull-Ups. There must be some reusable equivalent?

Happy Heiny trainers?

Can anyone weigh in on Happy Heinys pocket trainers? They seem to get better reviews than some of the other "trainers."

We like the happy heiny trainers here - they're especially good for nighttimes. Starbunz super undies are also good - they're a really good fit imo if she's a little younger/smaller/more petite than the happy heiny's are. And fyi, I've always found hemp inserts to work out best for pocket trainers (esp for nighttime).

My munchkin is of the plumper variety, so maybe happy heinys? I keep hearing rumors of other fabulous nighttime trainers, but am coming up empty. So, you think HH with hemp inserts are the way to go? How many inserts?

We have some Antsy Pants, they are super easy to pull up and down and have snaps on the sides for taking off like a regular diaper too. There is some absorbency in the training pants, but also a spot to stuff more in.

Ooo, also very cute! At $8 more per dipe, can anyone weigh in who has tried both hh and antsy pants?

Bumwear, happy heinys antsy pants trainers?

I keep finding reviews that say the HH are sized funky and that the inserts bunch up because the pocket is too big. Anyone have anything to say about Bumwear's trainers?
