We started sitting dd on the potty when she turned sixteen months. There has never been any pressure, and she chooses whenever she wants to.
At first she only chose to sit on the potty sometimes, but now likes to sit on it a lot, and also signs 'potty' when she would like to. Dh and I feel she is aware of when she's doing, and seems to have some control of the muscles there as well.
I recently spoke to some mum's I know about potty training dd soon, but they all said she is too young and probably won't be ready for another year. They said that at this age potty training would be a lot harder, so to wait until she's older.
I am also pregnant, and due in August so ideally would like to have dd potty trained - but of course if she isn't ready that's fine too.
I was please hoping for some advice on what to do - a part of me wants to give it a try, but then I appreciate that the more experienced mum's I know more than me about training. Thank you.
