Potty Talk

Hello Ladies! It's been awhile. I haven't posted because I just moved and life has been CRAZY! 

Just wanted to see if anyone has potty training on the brain. 

My DD who will be 18 month next week decided to start using the potty. What started out as a joke with her saying potty and pointing to it, now has become a daily routine. I don't want to force her into it, she really started on her own. I got her a little potty of her own but by no means are we diaper free. It's so cute though. Is this happening to anyone else?

For my own selfishness, I am so scared to get rid of diapers

Cute, I am actually ordering a potty today. Time to have it around so DS can start getting used to it...I'm hoping he is curious about it and starts using it on his own.

DS goes potty about once a day (pee) and more on weekends. He's only pooped a few times, though, but now tells me when he's pooped and sometimes will try on the potty and then go a few minutes later in his diaper. I think as he starts to communicate better we will do more, but for now it's more for fun and for him to get used to it but no pressure.

We have one and DD sits on it occasionally if I am also sitting on the toilet but I don't think she is ready yet and considering I am due in a month I am ok with that bc I don't want her to get it and then regress when the baby gets here.

We haven't started yet but I have been thinking about getting one just so he gets used to seeing his potty. He will tell us now after he pooped but not before so I don't think he's ready quite yet.

DD is starting to let us know when she has to poop and I just direct her to the potty. I ask her to sit down even with her diaper on still just to get her comfortable with the potty. I'm trying to be really casual about it, get her used to it and when she seems really comfortable we'll just go diaper free.

It's hard to get cloth on and off easily and I don't really want to buy trainers so I'm going to try something like the 3 day method when she seems ready.
