We started potty training about 3 weeks ago, Ds is now completely dry and asking for the toilet for a wee even when we are out.
He will also tell me when he needs a poo but as soon as we get to the toilet he decides that he doesn't need it and wants to get off. He seems a bit panicked by it and will ask again a few minutes later but then want to get off again. This happens a few times and then often he ends up going in his pants and being very upset about it.
He has managed to go in the toilet/potty a few times.
Does anyone have any tips for helping him to get used to it? So far I have tried:
The poo goes to poo land app
Blowing bubbles while on the toilet
Bribery with chocolate buttons
Reading books/ giving him the kindle to watch TV while on the toilet.
Taking his trousers off completely as soon as he says it the first time (he doesn't like this)
The potty
The toilet
I don't want to get into the habit of making him sit there for a long time as he geta upset about it but I also don't want him withholding it and he is very upset by accidents.
Thanks for any ideas.
