My DD is 2y 7m and is still in nappies. I've made several attempts at beginning PT to no avail. She loves sitting on the potty etc but just doesn't seem to know she needs a wee until she's done it, which is soooooooooo frustrating when you've sat her on the potty 3 minutes previously. I've now decided that she obviously isn't ready yet and to give it another go in a couple of months. This will be the 3rd time I have postponed PT (2y, 2y4m & 2y6m)
I'm quite relaxed about this but I do get looks of vague horror from checkout girls and random members of the public when I buy bigger nappies or someone asks me ('Is she still in nappies?!') and I tell them that she is. My DD is as tall as her almost 4 year old nursery peers and has very good language skills, all of which make her appear older than her 2 years 7 months.
How long can I leave it before I really have to put my foot down with the potty training ?
