mmm, yep, DS was a couple of weeks away from turning 3. He has an older sister, so he knows all about kids going to the loo and the time came when eventually he wanted to be just like DD. So, I bought him some cool undies, planned to have 3 days at home with no outings, set the kitchen timer for about every 40 mins through the day, it was known as the toilet bell, when it rang he went to the loo, sometimes, something came out, sometimes nothing did. He did really well and we really didn't have many accidents, though when he is busy playing sometimes he has one but that's cool. I say to him ' when you get that funny feeling, rush to the loo' and he now says to me, 'I've got that funny feeling Mum, I'm rushing to the loo' and off he goes. But, he was very ready and I did wait until he really did seem to want to use the loo.
