Hi,
DD is 21 months and I had no intention of starting potty training until next summer when the weather was better and as I am coming to the end of my mat leave (dc2 due in Feb).
However her cm puts her on the potty before and after each meal and DD now (only in the last 3 weeks) understands the potty. I put her on the potty before her bath, when she asks and when I pee too. She always does a pee (and once a poo).
I don't think she's capable of holding it in, and she certainly doesn't always ask to go (but will go if put on the potty iyswim).
Can I carry on like this? I don't want her to start 'holding' or to get complacant because she's wearing a nappy (so that when we start properly she won't be bothered), but equally I feel she's too young to get it totally and the arrival of DC2 in approx 14 weeks time might be a stressful event for her that could cause regression.
Thanks.
