Potty training..

so jamie is going to be 3 a week before xmas! i know this should be in the up to 5's board but i dont know how many people go on there! we're finally getting there with his potty training! its SUCH hard work! he is still weeing and pooing in his pull ups sometimes but i try to take him as much as possible to avoid it! yesterday he had 3 wees on the toilet and a poo in his underpants (1st time i put them on him without pull up).

i have a reward chart which he is so excited to fill so constantly wants to go to the toilet just so he can get a treat! but he tells me he needs a wee or poo but then doesnt actualy do anything lol. its just the treat he wants haha!

anyway have any of you got any other tips to help him along as he needs to be toilet trained by january or nursery wont except him (i think thats a bit crap tbh) but thats the rules there! x x

I'd say bumless. I did that with mia. Pull ups are too much like a nappy. I started bumless, then with pants and now we're on pants and trousers. She only wear a nappy to nap and the for bed. Next step for us is the toilet and her to tell me when she needs. She didn't like being wet. As soon as she wee'd she cried x

I did the same as Dee with all of mine .. Caleb is only in nappies for bed and if we are going on a long journey otherwise it's bare bum or pants if we are leaving the house . Good Luck though whatever way it is done is just as good a reward in the end

Lol bumless

I did the same as dee and Rach, we tried doing it with pull ups and pants but it didn't work, I took things back to basics and let him run about naked had the potty on the room, then we moved it to the bathroom and eventually he wanted to try the toilet.
He doesn't have nappies at all now, I have the pads on the bed just in case but he seems to do just fine so long as he goes to the loo before bed.
It's taken about 3 months for him to be completly toilet trained.

Jamie won't go bottomless for some reason, he just begs me to put pants on so today we have been just putting underpants on with no pull ups! was a bit nervous after the last time we tried but hes doing SO well!! i've been constantly putting him on the loo this morning (he doesn't use the potty, just goes straight on the toilet) and he did 2 wee's this morning on it and then as i was getting dressed he sat on my bedroom floor making a strange sound! i asked what was wrong and he said "poooo" (hes still not properly talking yet). so i took his pants off and he had a tiny bit of poo in them but then had a MASSIVE poo (sorry timi) on the toilet! so proud of him for telling me as soon as he realised what he was doing! so of corse he got a treat then we drove through to bens mums with just his undies and jeans on with no accidents and he went for a wee when i dropped him off and now bens mums jsut txt me saying hes had another wee on toilet!!

sorry for the long post im just so happy as ive been trying for months and he finally seems to be getting it x x x
