Before a baby is born, there are many things that must be prepared first. And since this is something that you may be unfamiliar with, it is all pretty puzzling. Among these puzzling things, "underwear" for newborn babies is in particular indispensible. How many pieces of underwear should one prepare and how to wash it? And since there are different types of underwear, which ones should one prepare? Let's take a quick look at this!
Short underwear
Combination underwear
Long underwear
Although underwear for babies can be divided into 3 main categories. "Short underwear" (Tanhadaki), "combination underwear ("Combihadagi") and long underwear (Nagahadgi), most of it is of the "arranging type". This is the type of underwear that is worn so that it is arranged on the front part of the body. Newly born babies do not stay still or sit still, so the neck or the bottom is always moving, but fortunately, they sleep most of the day.
That is why the "arranging type" is very convenient for putting underwear on, taking it off, or changing a diaper. This arranging type of underwear has been used for babies in Japanese since old times because it can be easily put on a baby and it does not create much of a burden. Since brand new moms and dads are not yet used to changing a baby, we would like to suggest to choose the "arranging type" of underwear, because it can be used without having to worry about a baby's unsteady neck or bottom.
When it comes to the arranging type of underwear, the advantage is that it can be easily adjusted to a corresponding size as the baby is growing by connecting it with a string to the adjusted part. While the underwear is ready before the baby is born, the advantage is that it can be used whether the baby is big or small.
Depending on the season when the baby is born, 5 ~ 6 pieces of short underwear and 5 ~ 6 pieces of combination underwear is enough. Be sure to select material that is "friendly" to your baby's skin. If 5 ~ 6 combination underwear have been prepared, it is probably best to have 2 ~ 3 pieces of long underwear available as soon as the baby is born.
In addition to the arranging type of underwear, the "pullover" type or the "cardigan" type of clothing with buttons in front, similar to the underwear that is worn by adults, is also used for newborns in many countries around the world. The "pullover" type is designed with a widely open part so that the head and both shoulders can pass through it easily. Because a newborn's neck and sitting posture become more flexible and it is easier to change clothing from about the age of 4 months, "the pullover" type of underwear is also convenient.
Don’t waste your time buying any other training pants! These are absorbent without being too bulky and they stand up through wash after wash after wash. Truly a great garment - gives both you and your little one the confidence needed to make it through potty training!!
We’ve been using it from week 3 once we worked out how Bubs was letting us know when she needed to go and we’ve been using it throughout the day and nights. As you can imagine it’s a great time to spend together, less laundry and getting to know Bubs????
My girl sits at the 4th percentile for size so I was unsure if this would work for her right away but it was perfect from the start. It's so easy to hold her on the potty and we were catching half of wees and poos by day 4! I don't think I could have done EC without this amazing little potty. Plus, it's just so darn cute seeing her on the little thing! If you're on the fence, just do it!

I love this tiny potty! It is so well designed and ergonomic. Glad it’s one piece too. The only thing that could be better is if there was an option to buy in white, but that might get stained, not sure. I just like to check in on my LO’s urine color every so often. LO seems to like sitting on it too!
Thank you for shipping it to Switzerland. My son loves it and wearing it during daytime. I love the color as we can see if he is wet. Can't wait for the 'more roomier leg holes' for the tiny undies. I am planning to buy more. Been recommending you to all my parent friends.
This simple, sweet potty learning book has become my 16 mo old son's go to, which I find quite comical. He giggles and points as we read it together. Daytime potty training is almost solid...depending on the day and his and my mood. Can definitely recommend this book, as it has been a core piece in our potty training adventure.
I’ve been using the tiny potty with my 4 mo baby for about a month. It’s more comfortable than the top hat and helps keep all his pee contained without me having to hold him down. It has also helped my lo discover his toes and gives him the opportunity to plant his feet on the floor while using the potty. This allows him to push up and let me know he’s done.
Thank you for being so easy to work with! I mean, I love that you have undies for those of us that have smaller little ones, which is AMAZING!, but you have great customer service, too! :-) I used to train people in customer service in the corporate world, and y'all are great! Plus, I am very happy to support your business. Thank you for great products! You have a loyal customer in us, and I will be recommending your products to others (including my MOPS [mothers of preschoolers] group).
14m old Henry now wears tiny undies almost all day, and we both couldn’t be more excited! Who knew just making the switch from diapers and undies would be so easy?! Obviously, we still have a few misses every day, but now Henry won’t pee in his high chair anymore (he doesn’t like to sit in it, obvs) and communicates more clearly when he needs to go! Before I made the switch, I was relying solely on timing and intuition. Giving him some more responsibility and independence has been a game changer! Being the only person in my circle to do EC has been isolating at times, but seeing him progress so well has made it all worth it!
I wanted to tell you this potty seat has changed our world. I used to think my son was colicky. Turns out he was fussy because he needed to pee or poo and then was fussy once he did it in his diaper. He is such a happy baby now. 95% of the time he enjoys sitting on the potty seat. He has used the potty for almost every poo since we got the seat about 3 weeks ago. Pee is a bit harder for him but still it has reduced the diapers by 2/3. Little Boston using the potty seat.
It was a great find stumbling across your website! My daughter is potty training her 19-month-old daughter and you cannot imagine, oh right, you can, the shock (and horror) on faces when she tells them Ava is being potty trained. All the typical responses, she’s too young, she’s not ready yet, etc. Anyhow, thank you for your ingenuity. And for allowing me to vent.
My little has been wearing Tiny Undies for 2 years now, and they’re absolutely perfect! Cora wears size 5T at 40 lbs & 40 in. They’re the only undies we’ve found that fit where they should & stay put no matter what fun things we do. I love how the quality cotton keeps her modestly covered underneath dresses while playing & being a kid. Everything about Tiny Undies is perfect for super sensitive skin & eczema babes… organic cotton & dyes, no exposed elastic, perfect fit to minimize movement & chaffing, flat lock seams… we couldn’t ask for more!
Hello! Just wanted to share that we received today our baby potty and within minutes of putting it on the ground my 14-month-old daughter sat on it by herself and peed. I'm elated! She hasn't been able to seat herself on the baby bjorn big potty so it's always me dropping what I'm doing to pick her up and carry her to the pot when she signals. She doesn't walk yet. So I'm just thrilled to see her do this independently! Thank you for making such a little potty. I think this is going to make a world of difference for my own peace of mind.
