The Search for Overnight Training Pants

My boys have been daytime pottytrained forever now, but we've always still used pull-ups for overnight use.

We used to use Fuzzi Bunz diapers and I LOVED them and loved not throwing away so many disposable diapers but once they outgrew them I wasn't able to afford to buy new ones. I figured they were close to potty training anyway and it wouldn't be so bad to use disposable pull ups for a while.

Well...I was wrong. We still do need to use something at night and not only are the pull ups expensive but I hate throwing them away every day. I do laundry often and hang everything up to dry so it wouldn't be a big deal to use cloth pull ups, even if we only had a couple for each boy. I just have no clue which brand to choose.

I assumed I would go with Fuzzi Bunz again but it seems that they have discontinued their overnights. I really liked the Little Beetle "Learners"--they are soft velour with no plastic waterproof layers but it seems that we would also need wool soaker shorts for overnight use.

I hesitate to buy something online that I will be unhappy with so I think I am going to take the boys to our local cloth diapering store, Austin Baby. Erin of AB was the one I originally bought the Fuzzi Bunz from so it makes sense that I would turn to her for our needs now. I'll let you know what the winner turns out to be.
