I think that when we are potty training our under 3yos its important to incorporate "potty time" into the routine to ensure that LO goes at appropraite intervals to avoid pitfalls like holding for too long (that can lead to UTIs and chronic constipation). So we simply always have DS go potty before he leaves the house, before naps and bedtime and intermitently throughout the day. We also have a travel potty called a Potette that can be used as a mini potty if you put a plastic bag in it or as  a seat on a big toilet.

Get a piddle pad for the car. DS is a heavy wetter, and it absorbed his accidents! Plus, if her dippy cup leaks, it's absorb that too haha.

I was terrified to leave the house at that age, and stage, but we we t pee before leaving, and pee when we got to the grocery store, then pee before leaving and again when we go home, lots of toilet flushing, but at least dry pants.

When DD was that small, I just put a cheap plastic gerber cover over some of the gerber absorbent undies.  So when she had an accident, it wasn't a big deal and I didn't have to change her clothes.  I just had to check her undies for wetness regularly.  DS I haven't been brave enough to take him out!  We are just starting so he definitely isn't there yet.

What's on your mind?
