Woohoo Voluntary Potty Use Should I do it for real?

Hi All

My sensitive 2.4 yr old has just down a few voluntary pees on the potty and was very proud of himself, should I bite the bullet in the morning and put him in pants?

Why don't you ask him? If he's sensitive, an abrupt change may disturb him if it's not his idea.

why dont you have some nappy off time before bathtime with poty available and see how dc does, then extend the time. a slow build up is less traumatic.

yes go for it. ds trained himself at about that age. no harm done if it doesn't work out.
