potty training ?

For those of you who are potty training, did your LO show signs that indicated PT before you started?

DS used to come tug on me when he had a BM to be changed. Now he hates diaper changes and gives me no indication when he needs to be changed. A few weeks ago we got a little toilet seat that sits on our toilet and I've put DS on it several times a day for the past week with no result. Even though we typically CD except for night-time, I also bought some pull-ups that supposedly get cold when they pee to try to get him to let us know when he needs to be changed...no reaction. I've since quit trying...I was hoping that putting him on the toilet and giving an exuberant positive reaction when he finally used it would help jump start the PT but now I wonder if I'm just pushing for it too hard and maybe he's just not ready. He does like his toilet and has no problem sitting on it but I just don't know if I'm wasting my time. Anyway, any thoughts?

Re: potty training ?

  • We got a seat for Xmas and have it in the bathroom. DS loves sitting on it and pretending to go when we are, but I don't think he's anywhere near ready yet. Still wets through the nite and doesnt tell me when he goes. I still want DH to show him how to go in the potty chair and see whet happens tho!
