THANKS IN ADVANCE XX

My little girl will be 3 in October too and only this week have we got this potty training malarkey cracked. She had suffered from dreadful recurring nappy rash due to a virus in her system for the best part of a year and due to that she flatly refused to poo on the potty. She's as bright as a button and knew when she needed to go but would wait until she had her nappy on for bedtime and go then. She would wee next to the potty and not in it and was so stressed by it all that we stopped for a month then tried again, no luck that time so we tried again last week. I don't know why but it suddenly clicked, I think she was just ready herself and within 2 day she had cracked it. She's really pleased with herself and obviously we are over the moon. I really think that when they are ready things will fall into place. Don't worry about his age, he's not late by any means. If you have to stop and wait a little while then do it, it took the pressure of my little girl for a while and then it all fell into place. If he really resents using the potty then the more you push it the less he will try. I hope all goes well, it's a horrible time isn't it!!! xx
