I am determined and driven for success FAILURE isn't an option for me. I potty trained my oldest at 9 months old. My 2 middle son's were more difficult they were between 18 months and 2 years old. My baby boy was showing interest in potty training, I decided to buy him a potty chair. Potty training tips 1.) Don't rush your child 2.)Don't yell at your child 3.) Don't punish your child for having accidents 4.) Don't give you child candy 5.) Don't compare other children to your child 6.) Do praise your child 7.) Clap your hands when your child goes to the potty. 8.)Take your child every 15-30 minutes to the potty 9.)Don't criticize your child 10.) I don't recommend pull ups but I don't bash mothers who decided to use them. 11.) Remember potty training is not taught in one day you have to be determined to potty train your child.

i will seriously pay a grand to anyone who can come potty train my son, omg.. i’m about to pull my hair out.
Any moms of toddler boys who can give me tips on potty training. My 3 year old starts school in september but he has to be potty trained and he wont sit on the potty at all. Everytime i sit him on it he starts crying and gets up.....
When you did you guys fully have your toddlers potty trained ? I’m having a hard time potty training my 2 year old any advice or tips on training a 2 year old boy ? 😩

I’ve never heard that, boys are harder. My daughters were potty trained by 2 my son by 2.5.

I always heard boys were easier & it tested true for me. My son was completely Day & night potty trained at 1yr&10mths. But every child is different.
He’ll get the hang of it.

Girls tend to catch on to that kind of stuff faster. Statistically girls are usually more linguistic and intellectual while boys are physical.

@nicole844, exactly that’s why I’m just starting now that he’s 3 because he just wasn’t ready before drove his doctor crazy that I didn’t have him already potty trained when I took him for his check up

@tiredmomof3 I know exactly how you feel. All kids are different and they will eventually when there ready. It doesn't help when you have people telling you that they should be already. Or tell you how you should be doing it when you've literally tried everything and don't want to force them.

I've always heard the opposite. My first son was hard he didn't till he was 4. My second son was so easy he had it down in 3 days with no accidents. My 3rd son was hard he wasn't till 4 and he had a lot of accidents. My daughter didn't want to she's 3 and she just recently has been for about 3 weeks now. She's been really good just put up a fight not wanting to till now

My daughter was super easy to potty train. She wanted to wear all the cute undies .. and we told her if she was having accidents she couldn’t wear them and would have to go back to a pull up... and only ever had 1 accident and she was on her way to the bathroom but just didn’t make it in time

No. I have always heard the opposite. And I don’t have boys to compare but both of my girls potty trained right at 24 months
