Potty training
My toddler is 32 months and we've been trying to potty train him for months. At his daycare, they have a potty room and they practice throughout the day. But when he moves up to the next room, he needs to be "fully potty trained." That can happen anytime between turning 3 and 3.5 years old. It depends on readiness and space in the room.
I bought a set of cloth pullups on Amazon, but they were way to thin. Plus he genuinely did not care that he was wet. Admittedly I got very discouraged and gave up quickly on cloth.
My mother in law (wonderful person) watches my boys every Thursday. Since she has hardwood floors she uses disposable. Â
We switched to disposables, and have been using them for months. He is good at going pee when we bring him to the potty, but he has no idea or urgency to go to the potty.
I also have a baby, and so I am struggling with balancing holding and playing with the baby and potty time and time with my toddler. We don't go to the potty a lot (several times a day, but not every hour), as I don't want it to be a fight (he normally goes there willingly for my mom, mother in law, and me. My husband can rush him at times, and then there's a fight).
I was desperate and slurged on a pack of the Upairy training pants. They are slightly more absorbent, but the Large (largest size) is skin tight on my toddler. It doesn't leave red marks on his skin, and the boy is pretty vocal regarding things being too tight, so I believe they are okay, but I don't think I'd buy more based on how snug they are on him. Today is day 1 of trying the cloth ones.
I keep reading that cloth pull ups are better, but I dont know. He genuinely did not care that he was wet and dirty twice now.Â
Are all the adds my social media is feeding me true, and I need to switch to cloth pullups?

We are using a reward system. He has a potty chart with 100s of sticker. He gets a small prize every ten times he goes. He likes earning stickers and prizes, but again he doesn't have the urgency to want to go potty.
