Potty Train Age
What age did you start to potty train. I know it depends on the child and I know boys normally start later. I am just curious. TIA

Re: Potty Train Age
DS's SM decided to put him in pull-ups at about 2 1/2, he didn't really get trained for about 4 months. 5 Weeks before his birthday I said that's it - and put him in underwear. Never looked back

Re: Potty Train Age
We tried at age 3, but DS is stubborn and headstrong. Tried again at 3.5, he was potty trained almost immediately with 3 accidents in 3 days, then nothing.

Re: Potty Train Age
2.5 - we had tried at around 2 and then again a month later for just a day each time and he was totally against it. We decided to give it another go at 2.5 and within 3 days he was completely trained. 4 months later and he's had maybe 3/4 accidents. He sleeps in undies also and wakes up in the night if he has to go. We did that a few days later, we were putting him to bed in a diaper but he was waking up to go so we took the diaper off. Two wet beds and he's been mostly dry since.

Re: Potty Train Age
Dd was 24 months, ds 2.5 years. Looking back I wish I tried around 20 months.
My friend trained her daughter at 19 months and son at 20 months using the three day method. I think the older they get, the harder it is.

I totally agree, like I said DS is 22 months and is doing great without diaper. Nights are a little bit different, but we will start training him at night soon too, since he is in a bed already.

Re: Potty Train Age
My DD trained at 3y4m and it only took less than two days. She really wasn't a 100% on board until that point but in the end I am glad I waited so long because training her was a breeze. In our case, had I forced it earlier it would've been a bigger headache because she just wasn't ready for one reason or another.

I let DS run around the house naked for the first 3 days to learn when he has to go and then on a day 4th I just put underwear on him and he seems to be fine. I know there is plenty of books about potty training too.
