Should I start potty training now?

There’s no harm in trying to see how she gets on, if she doesn’t “click” with it now, you can pop her back in nappies and try again in a few months. Just keep things calm and stress free, and then she won’t build up a resistance to the potty. A few things to consider: - if a child can’t tell you when they’ve done a wee, it’s highly unlikely they will be fully potty trained within a week. That’s not to say it’s not worth trying, but just to manage expectations 🙂 - you can buy special pants that catch the wee/poo but will still give the feeling of wetness that helps a child to know they’ve urinated. If you aren’t in a position to buy these, you can cut up a soft flannel into quarters and pop the flannel in the nappy to give your child the feeling of wet fabric when they do a wee. - independence is so important during potty training. It’s so much easier on the child if they can independently pull up/down their trousers when they need to use the potty xx

You can absolutely start now 🙂 the whole thing about them needing to be a certain age to be ready is a myth.

Yeah I would go for it if you feel comfortable! My little boy has done this for a while now and he will also randomly sit on the potty but if I take his nappy off he doesn’t want to sit on it! He just says ‘cold’ and gets straight back up 😂😂 The new advice from health visitors (mum works in a nursery and has advice from them all the time) is to start any time after they’re one 😊

Mummy intuition will always tell you when 🥰 If you feel like you can 100% commit and really go for it then do it! If you’re a bit on the shelf still and not feeling confident yet, do some research about it and then start x

Just to say I'm on day 14 with mine. It's been a breeze and it's so much fun and literally getting him to eat food is so much harder than potty training I used tiny potty book by Andrea olson which is specifically for kids 18mo+ whereas other books are for older toddlers. Oh crap is for 20mo+
