It really helped enforce potty training because the potty was right there when you needed it and we didn't have to worry about big scary or dirty restrooms at the park. The travel potty we used was made by cool gear, and I just checked on amazon and it is no longer available... but maybe you can find something similar. The one we had required the use of gallon sized ziplock bags which made clean up and disposing of the urine fairly easy. We did three separate potty training attempts (each with two month breaks in between), it wasn't until the last attempt, with the help of the traveling potty, that it finally clicked.<br /><br />Good luck!! :-)Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06854276566044082982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-49370842233050803042014-07-23T10:23:22.705-04:002014-07-23T10:23:22.705-04:00I loved using cloth, but I did switch when Rowan c...I loved using cloth, but I did switch when Rowan came around. And that was even with using a diaper service. Oy, I am NOT great at laundry, let me tell you. Hang in there with the potty training. Fletcher didn't get fully potty trained until 3 1/2. Rowan was thankfully earlier and easier. There's a little hope on the horizon!Ruthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030289955645949644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-3372199514152620582014-07-21T21:58:33.033-04:002014-07-21T21:58:33.033-04:00I have used FuzziBunz one size with both kids (adm...I have used FuzziBunz one size with both kids (admittedly - not till 4 or 5 mos. on baby #2) 50% of the time this time around and you can totally get them replaced they have a lifetime warrantee - I've done that twice when a snap broke. My 3 yr old is equally stubborn - needs to be trained in the next month for pre-school. Bribes of chocolate, science museum, chucky cheese NOTHING is working for no.2, he is pretty good with no.1 Kind of hoping school peer pressure does the trick.Mollieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03687111956445623201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-28544672478157083922014-07-19T00:14:47.366-04:002014-07-19T00:14:47.366-04:00That bottom poof is almost Victorian!That bottom poof is almost Victorian!Umami Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17416507884570174762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-8163268616883255952014-07-17T15:54:53.800-04:002014-07-17T15:54:53.800-04:00I have heard some babies get diaper rash, we actua...I have heard some babies get diaper rash, we actually always clear up diaper rash with cloth (it's the disposables that seem to cause it for us).

We use cloth diapers too...about 75% of the time. :) I still have a decent stash of bum geniuses but we had such a problem with diaper rash that I use thirsty covers and prefolds most of the time. There is nothing glamorous about cleaning cloth diapers, but it does feel good. :) Melissa Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03335808636264732176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-37747556417535137202014-07-16T12:32:38.652-04:002014-07-16T12:32:38.652-04:00They are way cuter!

And I think it all balances out, our cars are total gas guzzlers and we have an extra year of diapers going with this late potty training business. We all do what we can in different ways, you guys have certainly offset your diapers with your green ways :)Mama Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489450713167896817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-7310448738839883182014-07-16T11:50:05.814-04:002014-07-16T11:50:05.814-04:00They are so pretty!

It is much better for the environment, too. I hate to think of all the landfill waste we've contributed to over the years... maybe we can make up for it in other ways?Lauren Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07358496490976869347noreply@blogger.com
