Yesterday my friend passed comment that she was surprised my 2.5 year old DS isn't potty trained yet. Her son was fully trained (wees and poo) by the time of his second birthday but I thought that was actually quite early and something to be proud of as opposed to something we should all be achieving?
My other friend has a daughter and she was fully trained by 2yrs 6m though so maybe my son is lagging? I don't know?
We're at the stage where if we are home all day and leave his nappy off he will use the potty for every wee that he has. We have to put a nappy on him at peak 'Poo Time' as I doubt he'd use the potty for that.
We have tried pull-ups and pants on him but if he is wearing either of them he will treat it as a nappy and both wee/poo in them. We haven't braved going out without a nappy on for this reason.
Admittedly, I'm not too sure what my next step is but I don't think what stage my son is at is completely outside the realms of normal?
When she passed comment to me I honestly didn't know what to say. He's my first DC so my knowledge around this milestone is pretty limited.
She just made me feel a bit crappy.

AIBU?
For thinking my son isn't lagging when it comes to potty training?
