Ok, I don't have any experience potty training kids and don't know if what I'm doing with DS is right. He will be 3 in July. We tried it a few months ago with a potty but he didn't understand at all. He is speech delayed but the speech has recently 'clicked' and he speaks more now. I don't know if that's relevant or not.
We decided to put him straight onto the big toilet with a child's seat. When he sits on it he knows what to do, he can 'pee on command' I guess. But can only go around half an hour without an accident (today he had an accident 15 minutes after peeing in the toilet). He doesn't know when he needs to go.
We have only been doing the toilet training in the house, if we are out and about then he's back in a nappy. Should we be keeping him in nappies when out? Or is that hampering progress? If we keep going the way we are, will he eventually learn to hold it in? Or is he just not ready? As I say, I'm totally new to this and not sure what to do. Thanks.
