DD (2.5) has started asking to go on the potty a lot over the last few days. At nursery (one day a week) they say she has asked loads of times to use the potty for the last two weeks - they put her on, and sometimes she does a wee and sometimes not. We put her on at home when she asks and she usually does a pretty substantial wee. No poohs yet. So, all good to go for potty training I think.
However, we're going away in a week to a cottage that belongs to friends of my parents and I'm terrified of damaging their furnishings if she has accidents if we put her in pants - they're letting us stay for free and I'd feel terrible. And after that our bathroom is being done so there'll be loads of disruption in there for two weeks.
So, do you think we should continue with the softly-softly approach of putting her on the potty when she asks, but keeping her in nappies (not pull-ups), until everything has settled down - a whole month away? Or should we take the bull by the horns tomorrow and bin the nappies?
Thanks for any advice!
