Little Sammy Tyler has lets say, 'been interesting' to try and toilet train. He just doesnt seem to care when or where he goes. Thankfully we have now got to the point of him in jocks for the day and nappy pants at night, which seems to be working. There are still the od wetting of pants during the day, and he seems to need to be constantly reminded to go. (He is a busy little 3 year old, why would he waste his time in the toilet?) He can just be playing right near you when he'll say "Dad I wee'd myself" quite calmly, without seeming to be worried.
Thankfully it has been a long time since a "number 2" accident. I make sure I get him on the toilet on a regular basis whether he knows he needs a poo or not. Got a pretty good routine going with that at the moment and fingers crossed it will keep working.
He has even started to call out if he needs to go. Sometimes playing upstairs, while I'm doing something downstairs, Ill hear a muffled yell of "Dad I need to do a poo!" I think my reaction time has gotten to the point now of him not even finishing his sentence before I'm upstairs and undoing his pants, rushing him to the toilet. Having the experience of cleaning poo's out of carpet seems to elevate ones awareness and reaction too.
He is doing great now, but we definately learned the hard way with him, put it that way!
