Potty training

I’ve been potty training my son for months and he refuses to tell us when he needs to go. He’ll use the potty EVERYTIME we put him on every 20 min. But he won’t tell us when he needs to go. He’ll just pee or poop himself and stay like that until we take him to the bathroom. Anyone have any tips?

I wish I did, my daughter is the same way. Everyone keeps telling me to give her time and she’ll do it when she’s ready. It’s killing me though 😭🤣

I don’t have any tips, but we have the same issue! Following along in case anyone has any ideas

I have 3 and 2 year old boys. The 3 year old finally caught on and is doing it on his own. The 2 year old is still the same as yours. We just keep talking about it and have him repeat and say..."pee-pee (or poop) is coming." Sometimes he says it after he already went, but he is learning. I still keep him in underwear even though he has accidents, lots of laundry but it truly does just kick in when ready.

@Madison @Logan sorry you guys are going through the same experience. It’s so frustrating. I have no idea what to do. I’m worried if we send him to daycare, they’ll want him potty trained.

One thing that really worked for us was a reward chart

A T-shirt that’s yours put him in it no pamper then when he has to pee or poo he has to let you know

I do it with my 3 year old son he only wears pampers for nap time or sleep time in the day he’s in a big t shirt and he lets me know every time he has to lee or poo
