Potty Training Virgin

[CADS]

Hello

DS is 2.4 years and I'm starting to think about potty training.

Please can someone tell me what the signs are? And how potty training is done?

Can't bear the thought of reading another book re child rearing/development.

Thanks

Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

you need cod's potty training boot camp - have a look for her previous threads in this section

as far as I can remember the central tenets are

choose Big Boy Pants with favoured character
practise pulling up and down
no nappies or pullups except for night & naps
take to potty every 15min, don't ask them
sit for 5min - read book if necessary
if nothing, no comment, get off
if successful, big cheers, clapping, whooping
if accidents, no fuss or cross, just 'where do we wee? in the potty!'

if whooping not working, add star chart or sweets
if Potty Fear develops, try trainer seat on loo

... and I think that's the main points covered

thanks, i'll have a look for cod's posts
