Potty training 3yr old DS. Still asks for a nappy on...AIBU to ask your opinions?

[TheOrchardKeeper]

What's best in this situation? I'm just praising him a lot and saying how I don't/DP doesn't and he sees us use the loo a lot etc. He also has a reward chart going.

He's very bright, healthy and big for his age so I think it's just an emotional thing.

Am I doing the right thing?

We've just toilet trained ds, he's 3.5. He loved his pull ups and would get very upset if we suggested pants.

In the end I just had to say there were no pull ups. I put him in pants and trousers for nursery and he was fine. No accidents.

He could do it, he just didn't want to. Now, 5 days later it's like he's been using the toilet for months. He could do it.

And yes, lots of praise for pees and poos.

Mine was like this. I knew he was able as well. I said no nappies during the day in the end. He got the hang of it too. Can see why a nappy is just more convenient, if you are busy .

I've done an online shop for tomorrow then he has nursery most of next week so he'll be encouraged plenty by the lovely staff there.

I know he can sit down and easily produce a decent amount of wee on demand. I think he just likes being able to pee wherever/whenever!
