You’re so lucky your kid potty trained in a day. We’re almost a month into this and she still pees on the floor. Ug!

In reply to Chelsea @ Life With My Littles. Agreed! I think it's hard for a lot of people when they see a kid getting potty trained super early or fast. It's just important to remember that's not always (or even, usually) the case. :)

This is so true. We are in the midst of kind of potty training. We started trying over the Christmas break and he showed no interest until he did his first wee on it on the last day of the holidays! We therefore didn’t go back and just carried on when and if he decided to use it. 4 months later and it has progressed but we are still nowhere near complete. But we aren’t in a rush! He now uses the toilet rather than the potty but he forgets to tell us most of the time! It’s extra difficult because he spends two days a week at nursery, three days with my mum, the weekends home with us and a lot of time in the car! it’s not easy amongst that. We’ll still keep progressing though and if it takes a year then so be it! Thanks so much for linking up with #TwinklyTuesday

Yes! I love this post! Thank you!!! My daughter is 2 and a half and not toilet trained. We’ve had some constipation issues over the past 18months and it’s often a struggle for her to do #2s. Our maternal child health nurse told us not to push so we didn’t put her off so we didn’t. In the past two months, she’s shown a lot of interest in going, but tends to go in her nappy and then asks to go to the toilet! I’m not worried about, I tend to subscribe to the philosophy that she’ll work it out too – but it is nice to see others in a similar situation!!! #twinklytuesday

This is so true! We started potty training our son last week, and some days are definitely better than others. It’s awesome that some kids can potty train in a day, but that is not the majority! And as a parent, the best thing you can do is to be patient and let them take their time. Because like you said, it will happen one day! It’s not something that can be forced.
