My 18 month tells me when he pees, prior to the event.

He continues to deny Bm's. Anyone PT at this young of age, not EC. He will say Momma, pee, squat down and go and laugh about it. He will not go in the toilet. Advice?

Is he in diapers or underwear when he does his squat and giggle?  He might change his tune if he feels his supercool Elmo undies getting wet/dirty.  I'd make a big production of letting him pick out underwear in the mall and tell him he's a big boy now and can go on the potty.   Will there be misses?  Sure.  But that's how he'll learn.  It's just pee.  Get a cleaner from the pet store. 

This is what I'd try anyway.    GL.

Naked or diapers.  Either way.  I will get some underwear and give it a try.

Underwear raises the bar a bit, KWIM? 

 Worth a try, anyway.  If it doesn't work, the undies won't go to waste.

my oldest was potty trained by 18 months (except for nights and naps)  She knew the sign for potty and had gone here and there for a few months.  Finally, one day, I put her in panties and she had 4 accidents in 2 hours and very rarely since then!  It's early, but it can definitely be done!
