beings as the potty training forum is so quiet i thought I would post here too.

Isaac is 2yrs 10 months

If he has no nappy/trousers/pants on. He never has an accident. He will take himself to the toilet and go fine. As soon as I put pants on him its a different story. He treats them like a nappy and wees in them.

He starts nursery in April and I am desperate to get him dry soon.

I would be really greatful for any advice ladies! xxxx

Hi my son was the same. until i put him in boxer shorts!! Sounds mad but it worked. my friends little boy was doing the same this year and she changed to boxers and it worked! Don't know why.

thanx. DS1 wears them so will give it a go in a bit. will let you know if it works! thanx hun xx

i had to keep taking mai to the toilet and reminding her that knickers wernt like pull ups and the pretty pictures on the front would get spoilt by all the wee (i know im evil) she finally got the idea and took herself to the loos fully clothed at the last baby ex meet i went to! mind you she went by herself without telling me so i had the mother of all panics trying to find her!!!!!

ds used to go comando ( nothing under his trousers!) and that seemed to help , now he wears boxers as doesnt like the restriction from pants!!!

goodluck hunnie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I did the same as lolly hatch.. I bought charlie thomas the tank engine pants and told him he cant wee wee on thomas.

I also put a ping pong ball in the loo and my god how he loved peeing on it to make it move around the loo.

My boys wear only boxers now too.

good luck

well it seemed to have done the trick. I told him hes cant wee on thomas coz he'll ruin him and it worked -.Until I put trousers on him! I suppose its coz he couldnt see Thomas or feel like he was in pants as much. I dont wanna push him too hard so I think I'm gonna stick to just pants for a while and get him used to that first. Thankyou so much ladies! Really appreciate it. xxx
