We're slowly introducing it and not doing the 3-days-no-pants thing {yet} but if you have any advice or tricks let us in on it!

I voted! What I will say about potty training... introducing it slowly is fine, but when you really want him to be potty trained, ya gotta go cold turkey and throw out all the dipes and pull-ups. Leila spent 6 months in pull-ups during the day which she knew she could still go potty in. Even though she'd use the potty on her own occasionally, she would still go in the pull-up because she knew it was like a diaper and she could. As soon as I bit the bullet and put her in undies 100% during the day, she was fully potty trained in 2 days (with the exception of night time which we JUST took her out of pull-ups at 3.5). Follow his signs and you'll know when he's really ready.
ReplyDeleteThank you! How old was Leila when you cut her cold turkey? Was she talking yet? L is def really expressing interest in the toilet but i'm not sure if we/he is ready to do it cold turkey yet bc he isn't communicating to me yet when he is wet or dirty. But he DOES also go into a private space to poop I've noticed, so I think that's an additional sign.
DeleteEveryone says it's best to do the real training in spring/summer. SO once a day right now I have him just sitting on the toilet, with no real expectations - just to get him familiarized with it, flushing it when he's done sitting on it, washing his hands, etc. to get him into the routine of how it works.
