Hi,
DD is approaching 2.5 and is showing lots of interest in potty training, but I'm unsure how to get started, particularly as I work 5 days a week. I've been waiting until we come back from our holiday in a couple of weeks because it involves long car journeys and I didn't want to have partial success then confuse it by not being able to access a toilet for long periods of time.
Stage she's at is she's showing lots of interest, does a wee on the toilet (on trainer seat) at bathtime, takes off her own nappy to do that, knows what I do when I use the loo etc. and tells me just before she needs to do a poo and I think just at the moment she is doing a wee.
So I think it's worth a go, but as I work 5 days a week, she's in three different childcare settings: Mon nursery, Tues Grandma, Wed Nanna, Thurs & Fri nursery.
I'm worried about how to get all three places doing the same thing at the same time and not confusing DD. I'm pretty sure nursery will do exactly when I ask and so will Grandma, Nanna is a bit of a loose canon to be honest and might do things 'her' way, but I'm not sure how much of a problem this might be.
And then I am of course with DD at the weekend and am worried that I might even be the one with less of a clue of how to do this, and what stage she's up to.
Help! Any other full time WOHM Mums with any experience/advice to share?
