My little boy is 23 mo and is in a creche 3 days per week. There are 3/4 in his class that are bing potty trained at the moment. They range from 23mo to about 28mo. The supervisor has suggested that DS should start soon and that they will be very supportive.
So i spotted a potty last night in asda for £1 and i thought i'd bring it home to see how he reacts to it. Now he will happily sit on it with a nappy on, but when i took his nappy off he was terrified to sit on it and when i lifted him and set him on it, he was screaming to get off.
Now i'm not one for putting my child through unnecessary stress, but i was wondering if this is a normal reaction and should i continue to keep the potty in the living room and encourage him to sit from time to time. My mum recounts stories of running after piddling babies with the potty. I can imagine that to be pretty messy lol!!!
