Still not potty trained

My son still isn’t potty trained and it’s not due to lack of us trying. 😅 He is a very very smart boy and fully understands the concept of using the potty.

Poo on the potty

We’ve been potty training my little boy for a while now and he mastered the wees so quickly but poos have been a nightmare! Multiple poo accidents in his pants a day because he lets small bits out at a time as he knows he shouldn’t really be doing it in his pants but won’t do it in the potty! Any tips ?

Potty training

Hi I'm trying to potty train my almost three year old and he's currently spending the day without any bottoms on. He doesn't tell me when he needs to use the potty but only one accident so far. I'm just not sure what to do about nursery, should I keep him off until he's trained but then what if he takes a long time?...
