Potty training

Anyone out there with a DS who pottytrained before their DD?

I really would like to pottytrain DS before he is three and goes to pre-school. But DD was very late, wasn't until she was 3+ before she got it. I know boys train usually are slower than girls but did anyone experience the opposite? Help, looking for positive stories! :)

yes, dd trained by 2½years and ds was day trained by 2years as he showed signs of being ready.

My ds (dc2) was a piece of cake and potty trained day and night at 2 years 3 months, my dd (dc1) arghhhhh! 3 years 4 months and only pooed in her pants for 12 whole long months after that. Wasn't night trained til almost 7! Dd2 (dc3) is 3 years 4 months and still not trained - keep giving up - is impossible !!!

My girls were so much worse that my son. 2 months off having ds2 - would imagine he'll be potty trained before dd2!

My DM is a childminder who has my dd (2.3) and a little boy (2.1) and they are both potty training together atm and if anything he is picking it up better than dd is.
