Would this work with a child's chair? I have a 2.5 year old whose diaper (if she's wearing one; we're potty-training) leaks onto her Pottery Barn Anywhere Chair. I've tried crib mattress and changing table protectors, but they don't stay on unless I use safety pins. Eventually those pins pop open and create a hazard, so I need something that stays on by itself. Would this work with a child's chair?

I would recommend that you put elastic on the corners and it will stay in place.

Not knowing the color of your chair, the Americare pad I bought came only in brown and fits my mother's lift chair. It does scoot a bit, but not much. However, checking Amazon's other waterproof chair pads, there are some that are smaller (17x22 inc.) in various colors that might be more suitable for your child's chair. I had four children and didn't use any pads because they were taken to the potty often until they were used to staying dry, then accidents happened rarely once they preferred dry panties. I wish you success!

I dont think so....I use it on my baby´s carseat and also on her eating chair.You will be able to use it on a crib but not attached to it...

My daughter is almost 5 months old and 15 pounds. While i have been using this diaper since she was about 10 pounds,and loving it, we use it exclusively for night time as i still find it too bulky for daytime after snapping it down to fit her. I imagine this will change when she is bigger. We use it with a disana wool cover and this has been a bulketproof night time system. I have also used it with a blueberry one size snap cover and it worked great also. I cannot say enough good things about the pooters diaper. So well made, so absorbent, easy to wash. We love pooters. Hope this helps.

I think the only problem with this would be the fact that pee/poop could get out of the diaper, since it wouldn't cover the whole surface and be contained like a bag. I think it could work for most of the time, but I can see there could be times in which this wouldn't work and these are never fun. At the end of the day, I am not sure that each bag is that much more expensive than a diaper, so I personally wouldn't take the chance.

I used it in two different cribs with no problems. Got mine 3 years ago for my 2 year old, and passed it on to my newborn 2 years ago. Still absolutely love it and fit was not an issue in either crib. Had it in a Davinci crib first and now - uh - I'm forgetting! Love it. Just make sure to protect it with an organic cover.

I used this for a girl and she just sat on it. It worked well for that. I don't know if I will use it for my son. I am about to potty train my two year old boy but I think for public toilets, I may just lift him up. A home we are just going to use a stool to stand on.

My son (5 1/2) doesn't wear any diapers or pull ups at night and in some cases has had some pretty massive accidents. This pad has never leaked. I wouldn't think that it could replace a diaper for an adult, but it could certainly take care of any leaks that may occur between changing.

Yes it still works great without the toilet seat on, completely stable. We loved this potty, it's survived 2 kids and about to recurve a third beating which I'm very confident that it will live to see another. The only down side to it is that the seat comes off too easily so we added velcro strips so the little ones couldn't just take it apart any time they want to. Five stars!

A stool should work. You might try that first to see if it helps. The main advantage of the SP is that it fits under the toilet when not in use. You can push it under and pull it out while sitting. It's also slanted slightly forward so it puts less pressure on the ankles than a flat stool would. I don't know about kids. I don't see how it would hurt, unless they are too small, and putting their feet up would cause their rear end to fall in, but I would probably check with the doctor first to figure out the cause of the problem.

I use it with those covers - they are a little big, bit it doesn't much matter because the elastic of the fitted cover pulls it tight. Then on my changing table, the mattress just fits in tight, so it hold the cover on perfectly well. I don't think it's so big that it's a worry at all, it looks good and won't slip off.

I am currently using it to potty train my boy (10-month-old). He likes to sit on it and gestures when he is done and wants to be picked up. As for girls, I would assume it should also be OK to use. The chair is deep enough and the front end does not touch the baby (unless he really pushes himself to the front of the chair). That said, you shouldn't have to worry about any germs from the babies touching the plastic. Additionally, it is really easy to clean, the plastic part comes out easily and we "decontaminate" it with 10% beach every couple of days just in case.

Our mattress frame is not from the pottery barn but it is all wires, the only solid is the frame of the crib. What the mattress sits on is basically a metal lattice that is springy. I think that is pretty common for cribs. So the hard board will work. But we realized after purchasing the hard board anything stiff would have worked in its place. But regardless of if you choose to user the hard board or a piece of plywood or something similar I definatley recommend the monitor. Its been a lifesaver. Our little one never slept well on his back. He loves his tummy and now that he can turn over he moves to his stomach in the night. The monitor lets us sleep soundly knowing we will know if he isnt breathing.

No, it can not. probably use it if you are changing a diaper. It is meant to be on a bed or chair to protect Hope this helps

I use a single hemp insert inside Thristies covers. Works wonderfully. With cloth diapers you should change after every wet, and one insert should be plenty absorbent for one wet. My baby is 4 months old and one wet leaves only half the insert wet, so it theoretically could hold two wets from a baby her size/age, but more likely only one wet for older babies and toddlers. LOVE this system because it is sooo TRIM under clothing!

I never had this issue. My kids leaked all over the place all the time. But I did read another persons review with a similar issue. She had to cut a hole in the silicone to make it work.

Unfortunately yes, my son when sitting down sprays between the seats, and it spills over on toilet bowl unto floor. It's become habit to have wipes near toilet to clean up. Rarely has his clothes got wet from sitting down, it just spills over on bowl, just missing his pants. For my daughter is was perfect, we had no issues. They both felt comfortable and safe on the smaller seat and we were able to use the adult seat for us or our guests.

Only works with underpants....but we used bed wetting pads so we didn't have to deal with wet bedding each night. You will have good results pretty quickly so even though your son will have wet underpants for a few weeks, the amount of urine will be less and less as time goes by. I'm so glad we spent the money for the alarm, and our daughter is so proud of herself!
