Best potty training tips you can give?

[Rosa2020]

Hello!
My DS is 2 years old and I have been trying to potty train him, but it's been several months since I started but no luck :(
I thought Spring/Summer would be best timing for that and stopped wearing his nappy. Therefore I'm busy whole day long wish washing his pants, trousers....
Please help!

Hi Rosa - if he's not ready at the moment, maybe take a little break and try again in a month or two. He is still very little. Some children find that using pull-up nappies is helpful while they learn (grown-up "pants" but less mess) but they need to be trying and aware for that to help.
Sorry I haven't got more ideas, you might want to try reposting on one of the main parenting topics as the MN Local boards can be a bit quiet.

Thanks MmeOgg for your advice! To tell the truth, I started potty training when he was 1 and decided to stop after seeing that he wasn't even trying for couple of months. I tried pull-up nappies but the situation was the same as he used to wear proper nappies. My mum advised me to stop wearing them too and my story with wet pants started :)
He does his business sometimes when I bring him to the toilet. When he refuses to do so I put his pants on and few minutes later my superman looks at me with kinds of innocent eyes and says: "Oh-oh" :(

Hi Rosa,
Abbey True gave you the following tips on our FB page:

First steps I followed were get store brand nappies this is less absorbent and allow him to feel the incomfortable stat when doing his business. Talk bout it and ask him when his busy. What he is doing.I used sign gestures etc.

t's very important that u determine if he is ready too. If he wets a lot it mean the intro to potty is not full proof.

If he isn't 'getting it' then simply stop. Try again in a few weeks. He is still young. My DS was 3 when he was potty trained. We had a few false starts and no success so left it a while and he was obviously ready this time and it was a breeze. It is a developmental thing, they can only do it when they are ready.

Sorry for delay!

MmeOgg, Abbey True, Lellykelly many thanks for your tips!
I was going to let you know what happened afterwards.
I thought stopping the potty training after so many months of trying and starting from A again later would not be a right idea.
One day I met a lady with 5 kids and asked her advice as well (her younger child was the same age as my son).
She advised me to praise my child in front of more people especially whole family and ask them also to do so.

I never thought that as simple idea as this could solve my problem.
It really worked! When whole family of us were sitting together I told them that my DS said:"Potty" and didn't wet himself", everybody did what I asked them to. My son was a little bit shy but hearing their encouraging and appraisal words made him feel responsible for his "jobs" I guess.

I have to say, accidents still happen but much-much less than before. I try not to ask him whether he wants wee-wee, so that he listens to his body and tells that himself and he is doing well. But when he is really busy with playing I take him to the toilet without waiting I hope you understand.
Even at nights he is sleeping without nappy any more...
