Help!

Ds1 is 3.5, we have been potty trains for 3 months and I'm at the end of my tether.

At home he was dry, all wees on potty. Won't use the toilet as he's scared he will fall in. He started nursery and they have small toilets there but he will still not use them. Everyday he comes home with a bag of wet clothes. Now he is weeing in pants deliberately at home. I know it's deliberate as he tells me and he had been dry for so long in the house.

What can I do? I'm at the end of my rope with this and dealing with my 2 year olds strops isn't helping. Should I just give up?

Nursery are pushing for him to be toilet trained ASAP too.

Ask nursery for advice then? If it makes sense for your child then try the same there and at home so you'll be sure he gets consistency?

Could you or actually tell them you will be taking his potty for him to use at nursery? Don't let them push you into anything. He may be scared of those toilets and his familiar potty would help him. You must persevere with this as he's cracked it, just needs a few changes when not at home.

I think I will take his potty tomorrow. He's regressed so much this week.

Came home sodden and soiled Sad

I just don't know how far to push him as I know he can do it, but yes it's gear of falling in toilet/heights. However he told me he needed potty but he just won't pull his own pants down. Maybe that's an issue too?

If he's coming home sodden and soiled from nursery, you need to move nursery! Don't they change his clothes?!

They do change him, he must have done it at collection time.
