    Default Boy's underwear that my 2 YO DS can actually pull out?

    Just finished potty training and everythign is going great except my DS cannot pull up his underwear. We have briefs right now from Old Navy & Disney.

    Any suggestions for "Easy" to pull up underwear for his size?

    Thanks.

    What is the issue? Do they get all rolled up? If so, HA are thicker might be easier. Otherwise what about boxers?

    DS1 struggled and boxer briefs worked better for him.

    Try having him put one hand in the front, one hand in the back, then yanking them up. We use Hannas, which seem to work well.

    Maybe you need to go up a size? DS1 never had a problem and DD1 wears boys underwear (she likes Thomas) and she doesn't have a problem. (But I don't know if you mean it's getting hung up on the family jewels or not so maybe that doesn't apply LOL)

    Second the next-size-up suggestion--DS has been having trouble with his underwear sticking to his legs in this heat (we don't have AC), so I bought him the next size up (2 sizes bigger than his shorts), and he's getting it up himself again.

    ETA: We just have the Hanes kind from Target--nothing special!

    thanks girls.
    maybe i'll check out the hannas.

    Basically the waistband keeps getting twisted and he doesn't know how to straighten out so they end up all jumbled.

    i do not think next size up will work...he's not even 3 yet and is wearing 2-3 underwear and he's only 15th percentile! little guy!
