I left my son around the house without underwear and I bought him a Daniel potty and it makes noises, I also put the potty in the living room where we spend the most time
I know this is hard, but dont get mad or push him to go. Encourage is the right word. If they feel too much pressure, they wont be able to pee in the potty. When he has an accident, say oops, next time lets pee in the potty. As far as letting you know when, it took my son months of going with me encouraging before he finally learned to let me know. Some kids are more stubborn than others. I have friends who after just a few days their kids were doing it and letting them know. I bought him a potty watch and that helped for a bit. I think buying them potty stuff of their favorite characters is helpful. A sticker chart or candy helps others. Pediatrician said not to and for a while I resisted, but the candy got him to go on his own without being prompted.
@Paige do you keep her in diapers now, pull-ups or underwear ?
@Dayanara how old was he when he was potty trained
@Flor thank you so much for the words of wisdom
It will just click one day my son just got off pull-ups he's 3 and a half and I got a foggy urinal for him in his room to stand and pee off temu and a sitting down one to poop in to give him the choice make it more fun and just keep encouraging him all day long like look mommy is peeing in the big girl toilet you can pee in the big boy toilet also buddy maby give stickers everything he pees on the pot at first till he gets the hang of it himself
Try putting him in underwear and say look how comfortable these are bud these are way better but you have to potty I n the toilet with theses they will find out after a few times peeing in the underwear that it gets all over themselves they don't like it lol
@Vallen he was 1 and half almost 2 years old
I used a portable potty first the start with the big potty
My dad told us to use cheerios, put him on and have him aim and make it a game, another thing was put a couple drops of blue food coloring so he could watch the colors change. We didn't have to use either as he basically potty trained himself after watching my step-son use it.
Every child is different, and boys take longer. My 3 year old refuses to poop outside if a pull-up so I get it. Take off the diaper and underwear at home. Have him walk around without bottoms, and if dad is around, have him see how daddy uses the potty. Associate the potty with things and songs he likes. Godspeed momma, you got this, and so does he!
This is exactly my daughter. She turns 4 in July. We have tried every possible thing and anytime we push her she regresses further. I have taken the stance after months and months of tears and stress that she will train when she’s ready. She knows how to go, she goes when she feels like it, but mostly does not. But there’s never an instance where you have an 8 year old still in diapers. They WILL learn. Encourage it but don’t push it. Something will click one day and they will get it, I truly believe that.
