DS tells me when he's about to poo, he gets this little "I'm gonna poo" face.

So I started to take off the nappy and put him on the loo (he was about 6m).

All of a sudden, he wouldn't poo. Or even make the face. So now it's just wait for the smell... even if it had worked, he's not toilet trained. I am LOL.

He is probably about ready to TT but I'm leaving it for a bit. No point having bad loo/potty experiences to put him off. My mum used to put me on the potty from when I could sit up - just for naked time, or pre-bath, or nappy change time... sometimes I'd do something, sometimes not. But it's not called trained when I did something!
