DD is just over 21 months old and for about 2 weeks now has been saying when she needs a wee, poo & holding herself and saying "toilet". She is interested in the toilet at home or anywhere else we go.
I bought her a potty and a step, she has played a bit with the potty but wont sit on it just yet.
After seeing the dramas that my SIL had with PT my niece (although I feel this was more to do with my SIL attitude rather than my little niece) and the fact that age 7 she is still very nervous about using the toilet, i swore that when i had my own DD I would be very relaxed about the whole potty training thing. So I am keen to do it but only if she is ready iyswim.
So what would be the next step? i feel a bit bad when she says wee wee and I tell her to go in her nappy but i am not sure what else to do at this stage or if it is too early to get her to sit on the potty. would books help? Anything else?
Really grateful for any tips & advice.
Thank you
