Oh Crap Potty Training

We did this method and it went well. Did it across a 3 day weekend with Friday and Saturday at home all day with no nappies and then Sunday a really short outting whilst wearing underwear and loose trousers and then she was back at nursery on Monday. Nursery helped a lot as they all go in groups to the potty/toilet which encouraged her to go on it. Good luck 😊

Started today (underwear). 10 loads in the wash covered in all sorts 😂🙈

@Jessica Thank you. I’m going to try starting tomorrow on block 1 with no nappy/naked from waist down and see how I get on.

@Cal oh wow! 🙈 Did you do the commando under trousers stage before transitioning to underwear?

A week will be fine then the childminder carries it on (you need to be on the same page with approach) Personally I would leave underwear on so they feel the sensation of being wet. Also it catches poo in a hammock 😂😂 Get pants a couple of sizes bigger so easy to pull up and down for when they insist on doing it themselves

Yeah we used this method and found it really effective. I did have 9 days though as I booked a week off of work and had days either side my little one had a nursery day. Good luck. I would say just stick with it if you decided to start it. My little one has been potty trained since July and it was hard but so worth it.

@Amy no, we just went straight to trunks. 🙈 Weren’t too worried about mess on the floor but really didn’t want it all over the sofas/chairs!! He’s been interested for a while so guess we’ll just see how today goes. He’s back at childcare on 6th so this give us a decent window x

We had 7 pees, all on the floor. By the time I got him to the potty he’d stopped. We did have a poo in the potty though. Just hope we manage to make progress.

We had a similar day too @Amy Early days x

@Cal it’s good to know we’re not the only ones, sometimes it feels like we are. Hopefully we’ll make progress each day. X🤞🏼
