Wow, well done. Can I ask how you start doing it? I'm a first time mum and have no one to ask. Only my mum but with being the youngest, it's impossible for her to remember 30 years ago lol Xx
You can start with small things like introducing a book on potty and letting him watch you go (open door policy). You also don’t need to do it full time I started slow with my lil one with mostly at home bare bottom. He slowly started getting used to the idea that he needs to go potty.
Be honest. The first 2 weeks were really hard, but my partner was really supportive. I had days when I wanted to stop and cry, but my partner brought me a glass of a drink, relaxed, and kept going. Had potty from asda. My boy was scared of it. Bought one toilet imitation he liked it. Was catching him, then start pee. There were a lot of accidents. He first 2 days was just getting understanding. For naps and night still put nappy. It was separate job.
Was sitting with him near potty try incorage him. He was not speaking at age 2. We was bringing for me potty, then want pee. Had a potty chart in the beginning just to know his schedule was. Was pot him on potty 2 h apart. He ends up poo only before bedtime in nappy. Start notice during his nap time he wake up dry,( nappy only for naps he wake up take out straight) no excuses(bizi, no time,)) don't put any more for naps. But all time before bed to put agian an potty.
Just try, my boy was not speaking but, then we start potty training, he find his way to tell he wants pee pee, like potty dance or like my boy bringing for me potty. We started after New Year, and he was 2 then. We are full nappy free. Nigh time he wake up start cry I know he wants pee pee. If you have some questions, ask :) Just try.. :) we had no reward for pee, only clap hands and say good boy. And just now at age 2 and 9 months mh boy learn pee standing 🫣🤣😍
