I don't really have anyone to share life's successes with, so I hope it's okay to post here.

I've been overwhelmingly patient waiting for my youngest to show any interest in saying goodbye to her nappies without pressuring her or making it happen on my terms (I thought we'd be done almost a year ago, it's been a journey for me to keep quiet and let her lead the way) and it's finally happened! On Friday she announced she wanted pants on and has transitioned away from nappies with zero incidents. She was even dry overnight!

Still early days of course, but I'm so pleased!! Just wanted someone to share the positives with <3

Well done! My eldest made the decision herself (she'd seen a slightly older friend using a potty). I wasn't sure she was ready and hadn't bought a potty/any pants. She got it astonishingly quickly and was dry over night within a couple of weeks. Had never wet the bed. Wish I could say the same about my boys 😂one year on and I still take a full change of clothes in the bag at all times!

Thank you everyone! Dry overnight again last night. She's super proud of herself, and quite right too <3

How old is she, out of interest? I think we went too early with DD1 and pushed her before she was ready, so I’m planning to take your relaxed approach with DD2.
