DS is 21 months and I'm not sure when and how to start potty training.
We haven't bought a potty yet and actually wasn't planning on doing until after 2yrs as he doesn't seem to be ready at all.
He doesn't say 'poo' or seem to know or bother when he poos his nappy, let alone wetting it. Though he does get a bit uncomfortable if it's too full, and tries to pull it off.
He does say 'wee wee' occasionally and randomly and knows where wees happen, but I think that is only due to me saying 'mummy's going for a wee wee now' type thing. So more like copying me,IYSWIM.
Should I just buy a potty and start trying him on it or leave one around so he can play and inspect it?
Or should I just wait until he is ready himself. I'm quite happy either way, just more curious as to what is best. Just reading some posts on here makes me think my DS is behind!
