I'm hoping to start potty training DS soon (he's almost 2 - I'd prefer to leave it a bit longer but for various reasons it's better if I can do it sooner, and he's showing all the signs of readiness). The problem is he goes very naughty and bored if we don't go out for more than a day or so (even if we do lots of fun activities) he's just a very outdoor type toddler.
My plan had been to have a couple of days potty training in the house, then put him in pull-ups and take him out but still be offering the potty etc as often as in the house. If I started this on the Monday I could go out Wednesday and Thursday then spend another day in on the Friday.
Is it going to be too confusing for him though to be put into pull-ups so soon, will it ruin any of the work we've done in the house?
Also, a tip I was given is to put him in undies in the house if I'll be using pull-ups so he's used to having to take things down - is this good advice or am I just creating unnecessary washing for myself?
Argh, why isn't this simple!!
