how early did you potty train?

Ds is 15mo and has started to come tell me when he has done something in his nappy, I'm not bothered about potty training him until he is ready but I'm wondering how young is too young?

HV says he will not be ready before 2 but I've read about potty training at 18mo and I was trained at 18mo so if he is showing all the signs by then is it ok to go ahead and try? Also this new trend for training tiny babys is around which makes me wonder if some babies are ready before 2?

My mum bought him a potty yesterday to sit in the livingroom as this is what she done with me just sat it there told me it was for pee pee's and I started using it after a few months, my mums usually very good with baby tips so I'm happy to keep it she says to just leave it sitting and let him use it if he wants but my HV previously said starting before 2 just makes it a long process so does anyone have any experience with early training?

Can he take his own clothes off? I'd use that as a bit of a marker, in fact I did. It does help.
