My son really needed to go and just running to a corner of the park where the pram was he ended up pooing his pants. I didn’t even know if it was the right thing to have him sat on the potty in front of everyone 🤷🏻♀️ but there was nowhere else. Is there anywhere you wouldn’t want your child to go?

When we were just starting potty training we would keep a travel potty in the trunk part of my suv since when they need to go they need to go then and she would just get in the back of the suv and be able to have privacy to go it got us out of well a lot of stinky situations! We would also line the travel potty with a plastic shopping bag so we were able to dispose of anything easily!

That always felt weird to be but I’ve seen other people do it and I don’t judge! Potty training isn’t easy! Even when we were out and about in town we never took a travel potty, we just went to find the nearest toilet. I’d keep one in the car and try for a wee before we left. My daughter spent day 2 and 3 of potty training holding her wee for hours on end so I know she can hold it while we find a toilet 😂

Potty in my hand the whole time we were out in the first few weeks! As soon as he said potty, pop on the floor and go. Until they have the control, then we can tuck away into a more private location. The more you look, the more you notice other mums in the same boat! No one will judge because everyone will have to go through it at some point.
I now keep the potty in the bottom of the pram, we still just pop it out in public if needed but do try to be more discreet. Regularly using the pram as a shield from people😂

Kept traveling potty in the vehicle so when we’re out and about I asked often until she started telling me she had to potty on her own she is full trained but won’t use public bathrooms she loves her portable potty
