I have absolutely no idea of what I'm doing. We have pants and a potty... is that ok? He's keen to wear big boy pants so was planning on doing that and putting him onto the potty every half hour?
But.. should boys sit on the potty? When do you teach them to stand up at the toilet? What do you do if the potty is in the living room and they do a poo? Do you keep some toilet roll handy in the living room for bum wiping? What do you do with the poo and wee once it's in the potty? Just flush it down the toilet? What do you then clean the potty with? What do you do when out and about?
I've looked at portable potties but where do they use them? Do you just whip it out in the middle of the park for everyone to see their red faced straining?? Then what do you do with the contents of the potty? Do you end up with poo in your bag til you find a toilet? And how do you transport wet clothes after an accident? Just a plastic carrier bag within your normal bag?
Sorry for the masses of questions. I'm aware that they're all very silly but I'm fretting a little bit.
