Preemie Toddler Training Pants

Elliot is about ready to be potty trained and we are so excited for him except that we CANNOT find any training pants anywhere to fit his tiny tushy! Elliot is a whopping 22 pounds! He wears 18 months size clothes but all his pants fall down around his ankles. His waist is more the size of a 12 month old. So we check around to see if other preemie parents are having this same trouble. It turns out they are and some of them have even asked me if we make training pant long before we experienced the problem for ourselves. SO...

We are getting ready to role out a brand new product! We are so excited!!!

Training Pants for Preemie Toddlers!

Preemie Mom's are having such a hard time finding training pants to fit these tiny tushies. But we need your help! You can be a part of our R&D team by testing a pair of training pants at cost. So for $3.00 (plus shipping) all you have to do is send us your Toddler's measurements. To get the pants you need to send us an e-mail with the measurements of your toddler's Tiny Tushy. We will send you back instructions on how you will be able to order the training pants on our website. After you get your training pants all we need is your feedback.

Here are the measurements we need -
* waist
* upper thigh (where the leg hole would go)
* girth (from navel to lower back)
* weight
* height
* birth weight and number of weeks early

Your toddler MUST have been a preemie to qualify for this offer. Preemie is defined here as being more than 6 weeks early. Your toddler MUST also be between the ages 18 months and 3 1/2 years old and be in the early stages of potty training AND you have had difficulty in finding training pants to fit. If training pants that are currently on the market fit your toddler you DO NOT qualify. This market test is ONLY for those who cannot find training pants that fit. If your toddler can wear a size 18 months around the waist or larger you will not qualify. Please give me a brief explanation of how frustrated you have been by this problem and what your experience has been.

This offer will be on a first come - first serve basis and will be extended to the first 25 people who contact me and meet ALL the above qualifications.

Thanks for your help and input!

I am not sure how to contact you but I am very interested in the training pants. I have an 22 almost 23 month old that was adopted and we are not sure when she was born. She came home at 4.5 lbs. She is now 19 pounds and wears size 12 waist in pants but the length is usually to short so we have to get 18's and pin them. We can not find any training pants that fit her. So I am not sure if we qualify but please contact me if so. gaab1500@bellsouth.net

My daughter was only 3 weeks early but she completly stopped growing when I was 31 weeks along.She spent 2 1/2 weeks in the NICU because she would not feed on her own, other than that she was perfectly heathly. She just turned 2 and is only 16 lbs and wants to potty train but I can't find anything to fit so I have been putting it off and hoped that it doesn't make it harder to get her potty trained. Not sure if that would qualify her but please respond if she can... apiebug@hotmail.com

Hi there. Is this offer still going? I notice that you posted it over a year ago...

Just about to start potty training but my initial research indicates that my daughter will not fit into anything and we certainly have problems with pants etc.

She was born at 28 weeks, weighing 830 grams. She now weighs about 17 pounds or so, at 20 months. Since it is summer, I have her in 3-6 month shorts as the waistband actually fits (and length doesn't matter. She is approx 5th percentile for her actual age on height, but well below 3rd for her adjusted age on weight.

Please let me know if you are still looking for testers. I'm in Canada.
