| Jackson's pee leaks out of his belly band! :( What can I do to relieve this? It seems everytime he has an accident, I have to give him a bath cause the pee is all over his belly. Grrrrr this potty training is sooooooo frustrating! He's three years old!

| Do you put a pad in his belly band? That should keep it from leaking.

| Hmmmm guess that's my problem. I just use the thin ones they sell at Petsmart. I even used two with the same results. Guess I'll have to buy those. Do you wash your belly band after each use? Do I need to get more than one?

| I buy the overnights (most absorbant) and have a couple to swap up with should one get wet. I use baby wipes when I take it off & it helps with not having to bathe as often as well as we've never had a rash or breakout on the skin.

| belly bands I bought toddler diapers to put in the band..they are so much cheaper than the poise or maxie pads. Those pads they sell at petsmart are useless unless it is just dribbling. I always had an extra band for those such accidents |

| Same here - I think I like the Poise pads the best, they keep my guys drier. |

| Im sure my mom will love me telling this story but... Before she had bladder surgery a few yrs ago, she used poise. They gave her a horrible rash. I guess she had a reaction to whatever is in them that "gels" the urine. Just something to watch for.

| I used to use poise, but decided to try the equate super absorbancy with wings. They are long and very abosorbant, but I do have to keep an eye on them and change them often.
