My son is getting ready to be a year and a half and I was thinking about going to get a potty seat just for him. His older brother is 6 and he always follows him into the bathroom. so I guess it's time to at least give it a try. <a href="http://www.pottytrainingin3daysguide.com/" rel="nofollow">potty training in 3 days</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05702087565613369316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8479044467467363635.post-6835396782805900362016-06-07T13:51:16.349-05:002016-06-07T13:51:16.349-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05702087565613369316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8479044467467363635.post-9162103648204854412015-07-13T19:54:38.040-05:002015-07-13T19:54:38.040-05:00My son is 2 months shy of 4 years old and shows no...My son is 2 months shy of 4 years old and shows no real intent on wanting to potty train my husband and I are worried he will want to train, what should we do?lastaaron@outlook.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08762492179243249145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8479044467467363635.post-69751131358836064052014-12-05T18:35:04.078-06:002014-12-05T18:35:04.078-06:00Did he pee in his pullup?Did he pee in his pullup?Kaseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621410848391843117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8479044467467363635.post-16333025540263782492014-09-14T00:30:36.034-05:002014-09-14T00:30:36.034-05:00Girl... you and me both.

We're in a similar position - working-mom, two year old boy and about to have baby #2 (girl!) so I appreciate your insight. :) We've had him on the potty since 18 months and he definitely gets it and knows what to do, but I don't think he's quite ready yet either. Plus with bringing home baby, I'd rather not regress majorly, so we're just going to wait til we all get settled and maybe give it a full-blown try then. Keep us updated? :) Thanks again!!Laureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12416043033045863831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8479044467467363635.post-42439737899031085402014-09-10T08:24:31.128-05:002014-09-10T08:24:31.128-05:00My little boy is turning 2 in a few days and is so...My little boy is turning 2 in a few days and is so not ready.

...Ok so here's my inappropriately long comment.<br /><br />Both girls would sit on the potty before bathtime starting a little after a year. Julia mastered going in it pretty quickly, but Lana was hit or miss until she was about 2.<br /><br />1. J trained at 31 months. She woke up one day and decided she wanted to wear underwear. Pee training went pretty quickly as she had already mastered the mechanics of going on command. We were fine as long as we sat her on the potty at regular intervals, but we fumbled along trying to get her to tell us BEFORE she had to go. Took maybe 5-7 days for her to get it down. Took an additional week for her to feel comfortable going #2 on the potty. That was a bigger issue - she was very comfortable going in her diaper and couldn't seem to relax on the potty. She had no issues going from underwear during the day to diapers at nap and night. At almost 4, she recently transitioned on her own to underwear for naps, but has told me she wants to wait until she's a little older to do underwear overnight (lol). She wakes up with a full diaper in the morning.<br /><br />2. Lana trained at 26 months. We had a 3-day weekend and she was interested enough in the potty that we decided to just go for it. We just told her on Saturday morning that she was wearing underwear now and put it on her. We were very hands-off. We'd put her on the potty before leaving the house and before sleeping, but that's it. She'd wet or dirty her underwear, we'd go, "Oh yucky, no that goes in the potty!" and clean up. Halfway through day two, she was coming to us on her own telling us she had to go. Day 3 was accident free. She had maybe 3 or 4 more accidents the next two weeks, but has been accident free for months now. I was shocked because she wasn't acting super ready or super interested in the process. Our big problem was that she couldn't distinguish between going in the potty during the day but also it being ok to go in her diaper at nap and night. For awhile she was waking up a LOT, calling for the potty. Eventually she just started to stay dry. She's 100% dry over naps and probably 95% dry overnight now. Still in a diaper because I don't want to deal with wet sheets in the dark though.<br /><br />So there's that, for what all that's worth. :) Every kid is different! I think you're right to not push things, and honestly, I think a diapered kid is easier than a kid in the first month of potty training.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14698184793084988151noreply@blogger.com
