The first 1.5 days were awful. I thought there was no way it was going to work, but was willing to stick out the three days fully. And then like magic he had it! I don't think we had any success the first day if you define success by anythin getting in the potty. . We had success in that we ran him to the bathroom every time as soon as he started though so he was able to learn his body.
Yep. I'm pretty sure every single pee landed on the floor day one. It got soooo much better though! Hang in there!
It's been 2 months for us now. J is doing great. It holds it for 3 or more hours now. Though he has lost his desire to recognize when he has to go, I still do a lot of prompting. And he won't poop on the potty, on in his morning diaper
First day with dd2 was HORRRRRIBLE and she was fully trained in 3 days at 20m old. Good luck!
20 months is impressive!
I am really not that ambitious, she was just showing interest because her three year old sister was potty training too. I didn't even think about it until age 3 with my oldest. It really did get better after day 1, though! On the first day she must have peed 50 times. It was like she was testing out her ability to pee. Horrible, lol.
Did it with DS2 just after he turned 3. First day was awful - we did it in the nude and I think there were 8 pee accidents. Almost decided to call it quits.
Second day a few accidents in the morning and he was basically trained after that.
So yes, we did it in 1.5 days but the first day was awful. Don't lose hope!
