Finlay is 2 years 1 month. I have always said that I am not in any rush to potty train at all and I've read so much about how it's so much better to wait til they're closer to 3 etc. so I've never said anything to Finn although we do did buy a potty a couple of months ago and ocassionally...

it's not going great - at all! but it's only day 2 and i've been told by other friends that it took 3 or 4 days for the penny to drop. we've had wee on the floor, some in the potty, a bit in the toilet, more on the floor, some on the chair and some in mothercare (ok serves me right for...

Day one in the potty training household! He's a bit under the weather but going for it anyway. We've had one wee on the loo (put on there not asked to go on) and one on the floor so far!! I keep asking him if he wants to go and trying to put him on the potty about every half hour. Anything else...

So Josh wants to wear underpants. Yesterday I humoured him, but he did pretty well and managed 2 wees on the pottty. I decided that we might as well give it a go, and we can always go back to nappies if it's really bad. Today he had 2 acidents where he didn't seem to even realise, then the 3rd...

What Stroppy T and Kat T said. I think if you put her in a nappy/pull-ups tomorrow you risk undoing all your good work over the last few days. Just take a risk with the pants. Get her to go to the toilet/potty before you leave the house and have a plan for where you can bring her to the toilet when you're...

Morning all! Just pondering really. Max was toilet trained at about 3 years and 1 month after an abortive attempt about three months earlier. It was a long, difficult process which he still hasn't mastered today at nearly four and a half. Imogen is 2 years and 4 months. Yesterday, she insisted on...

Don't buy a potty until you are ready to start training. Seriously. I keep seeing posts from people whose children are wanting to use the potty but aren't really ready for proper training (or the mum isn't ready which is just as important!) and the potty becomes a source of stress. And it's...

Evening all! So we re-started again on Saturday, and since Friday at nursery, C has only been in nappies at night, although he asked for one today, to do a poo in! Saturday we had 7 hours straight with no accidents (asking for wee), Sunday was a complete miss, nothing on target at all, then yesterday...

Morning all, So we started a bit half-heartedly this weekend. I got Caspar a Thomas loo seat and a stool, and he loved it, he climbed up and down about 10 times the first night he saw them. On Saturday and Sunday we put him in normal pants, and we we surprised that immediately we had quite a good success...

Ever since trying and failing miserably to potty train Alice last week (2 year 4 months) I've been hearing from various people about children they know who have been potty trained for months and they're younger than A is. For e.g a friend's neice isn't even two yet, but she's been...
