Potty training?

My son will be 3 on Sunday and we haven’t started potty training yet. He’ll say he wants to go on the potty but plays while he’s sitting there and does nothing in the toilet. How have you guys potty trained your kids? Am I trying to push him too early?

Definitely not trying too early should’ve been alil earlier actually. But keep trying that’s what they do just have to be consistent even if u give a iPad or fav toy while they sit and reward each time.. I’m still potty training my daughter she’s 2 in the spectrum as well but she’s definitely starting to say potty when she needs to go and she has done the sitting and playing thing but like i said consistency i even went as far as letting her run without the pamper and today was the first time she said potty like that to “pee”

I’m in the same boat you are my son will also be 3 on Sunday. He says he wants to go potty will even pull his pull up down a little and will sit for like a couple seconds then say all done

You’re doing great! My daughter is about to be 3 and I just recently potty trained her. It’s a lot of work but well worth it! I spent two weeks living by the toilet. Haha! So I would say just get into that mind space that you may be spending a lot of time there. Another helpful thing was getting her into the routine.. I started just by having her pee in the morning first thing and when she would we did a big dance and clap and that got her exited and then I started asking her after meal times etc. as a reward for when she would use the potty I would give her one pez which was fun for her to get. That worked for a little bit. Keep in mind that the atmosphere you create is how your experience will be. Not always easy but stay positive and encouraging! I hope this is helpful!

I felt like my son wasn’t gettting potty training and he was turning three, too. Then when he was around three and half it just clicked. He just started asking to use the potty and didn’t want to go in pants anymore. Stay consistent!! They do get it!! You’re doing great!

I'm potty training my boy too. Some days it clicks better than others for him 😅

I've always let him go in with me He's seen his brothers go and when I told him the store stopped making his diaper size he has to go on the potty he was ready and knew what to do. Now he goes by himself and it's only been a few months

Here we started in February and now we got good on it - that means take time . But even now she refuses to do poo in the toilet and all the time ask for dipper 😂😬🥹 She is not 3 yet - so we are slowly on it. But pee is easier- keep them sit there and play. Shoes show you do , say byebye to weewee Eventually he will start- don’t need to force. You are doing good mom !

I tried here and there with my son, but he wasn't really interested. Literally the day he turned 3, he asked to use the toilet and has been for the last few weeks. He only still wears diapers when we leave the house because he's my second child and I don't have the energy to deal with public restrooms right now 😂
