If pull-ups are dry in the morning, do you reuse that night?

So we do panties then pullup. If she has an accident, I have to wash a wet pair of panties, that's all. Oh and the child.

It works for us.

I think this is a great idea. Plus, with the underwear underneath, the child might start feeling when he/she is wet. Versus with wearing a pull-up that's more absorbant.

And, anything that keeps it less messy is always a plus, in my book!

My DH thinks its nasty to use a dry pull up again, he also takes a shower in the morning and after work, and changes his underwear after both, he also demands fresh clothes twice a day. I can go a day without a shower, and have been know to *gasp* keep the same underwear on all day and then sleep in them! I reuse pull ups when they are dry.

your husband is gay.

So, let's I take a shower at night and put on clean underwear. If I change my underwear in the morning for work, I should then put back on the old underwear the next night? That's gross! DS doesn't even wear the same pajamas every night. I'm certainly not going to put the same pull-ups on him.

Wow. That is crazy wasteful. Use up extra water and energy; use up landfill space. Why? Where is your limit? Are you going to start making your kids change their underwear every 6 hours? 4 hours?

Why are people so neurotic about everything?

Um because dirty underwear and nightclothes smell bad? Bet you don't change the sheets very often either. ugh.

Oh, this is a response to me.

Who says that underwear and nightclothes are dirty after being worn one night? So, 8 hours in the same clothes makes them too dirty to continue wearing? How about 6 hours? Do you make your kids change their clothes in the middle of the day because your personal dirt quota has been reached?

I change sheets (or rather, my housekeeper does) once a week. Are you so neurotic that you change your sheets daily? And why is your assumption that someone who wears pajamas for two nights instead of *your* standard one night someone who is just all around filthy? Maybe you are neurotic and OCD?
