Stomach bug & potty training

Started potty training my 2.5 year old 3 days ago. He's doing brill, only 1 wet accident today and yesterday. Totally gets it.

He's just come down with a tummy bug! Vommed everywhere and diarrhoea in bedtime nappy. Question is - do we continue with the potty training or park it until he's better? Feel like it would be such a shame to stop it when he's doing so well but equally he's poorly!

Park it! It will be distressing to try to continue potty training when he doesn’t have full control and is feeling under the weather.

You’ve barely started and I think it’s too much to deal with so early on in potty training.

Just explain really clearly that he was doing fabulously with the potty training but that he’s unwell and needs nappies again for a couple of days.
