It made more sense to me financially. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744632 Wed, 07 Jun 2017 08:03:40 +0000 peachykeen 2744632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did the 18M Gerber training pants at 23 months with DD. We then moved to the 2T cheap character underwear from Target - everything else seems to be too big (esp Old Navy). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744552 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 23:13:34 +0000 PinkElephant 2744552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gerber makes 18 month training pants (more easily available online than in stores). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744541 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 22:11:35 +0000 youboots 2744541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hanna Andersson </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744515 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 20:44:51 +0000 Coral 2744515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry! My question was already answered above. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744514 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 20:38:24 +0000 LilSprinkles 2744514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was around 20lbs when we potty trained him. We bought 2T character underwear from target, and they worked. They were a little big, but the stayed in him (unlike his shorts or pants :silly: ) He is still wearing them (almost 2 years later) and he's 3ft and 25lbs now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744501 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 19:41:57 +0000 808love 2744501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Potty Scotty is good for tiny ones. We used Potty Patty, the girl version. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744493 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 18:41:19 +0000 ShootingStar 2744493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilyofthewest: Those undies aren't really worth it. At that age they usually have a full on accident, not a few drops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2744290 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 11:53:57 +0000 lilyofthewest 2744290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: The only difference is a few extra layers of crotch cloth so you have less mess to clean up with accidents (usually only wet clothes, not wet clothes and wet floor/furniture). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2743828 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 11:50:22 +0000 erinbaderin 2743828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure what the difference between training pants and underwear is, but B is also very tall/skinny and he wears the H&amp;M 18-24 underwear or Walmart 2T - they both fit him fine. Pampers 2T pull-ups also fit him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2743771 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 10:53:10 +0000 avivoca 2743771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used regular panties in 2T/3T size (pull-ups in the same size). My girl is quite thin but shorter, and yes they were baggy a bit but they didn't fall off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2743769 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 10:49:59 +0000 MrsBucky 2743769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>H&amp;M has 18 month underwear but I'm not sure about training pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2743764 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 10:40:06 +0000 gingerbebe 2743764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sons has similar dimensions and he fits the Gerber training pants just fine. I just washed them on hot the first time. He also has regular boy's briefs from Vaenait Baby (they have an eBay store - its a Korean brand and I'm Korean and love their stuff because its cut for skinnier kids). For clothing I usually size up a lot of VB because DS1 is so tall, but for the underwear, their sizing was spot on. I mention this, because my son seems to do a LOT better with telling me he needs to use the potty when he's using the briefs than the training pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/training-pants-for-tallskinny#post-2743706 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 09:15:57 +0000 lilyofthewest 2743706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going to try potty training my 25-month-old in a few weeks. He is tall and skinny -- about 35" tall, 22lbs. He's wearing mostly 2T girls pants and boys pajama shirts because they're cut narrow enough while still long/tall enough. </p> <p>I'm noticing that a lot of training pants come with their smallest size being 2T/3T with the bottom end of the weight range being 25+lbs. </p> <p>So far, I've identified that Burt's Bees comes in an 18mo size and KickeePants reviews all say they run small. </p> <p>Are there other training pants out there that you would recommend? </p>
