Hi there!
DD is 22 months. She's starting nursery in September and will also have one day a fortnight with DH from then (until now she's been with my DMum when I'm at work). I'm a teacher and am on summer holidays from now until the first week of September, so thought this was a good time to give potty training a go!
We've had the potty a couple of weeks so she could get used to seeing it. She knows what it's for, she has an older friend who has been potty training a little while so my DD has seen her use one.
Today was day 1. DD will sit on it with a nappy still on and do a wee! But if I take the nappy down and try to encourage her, she just says "weeeeee" and does nothing! She waits until she has a nappy on until she does anything!
I really don't want to go cold turkey with nappies yet! My hope was to just give her lots of praise and a sticker on her chart each time something ended up in the potty. But how do I do this if nothing ever goes in there??? I don't mind if this takes a while.
