I don’t have a lot of advice but I can tell you my son was nearly 4 when he finally got it.
He was 3 and I was pregnant. He kept hearing me tell people my due date which was about 6 weeks before his birthday. When we’d talk about potty training, he started saying he would do it on my due date. I was filled with dread thinking about giving birth and potty training on the same day. In a way though, it took away a lot of pressure because I stopped trying. And as soon as I came home from the hospital, he was ready to go and got it down in a few days.
I can think of it that way now but it was kind of annoying in the moment
We waited til almost 3.5 for this reason. We walked away from it for a few months and then when came back he was more amenable to it.
“More” not entirely.
Sooo we are 9 and still working on overnight. That’s more of a physical thing than a learned thing. So I’ve had a lot of patience for it. But day training he took to VERY quickly at 3.5 even though he had shown almost no “interest” in doing it.
Do you have a small portable toilet or are you asking him to sit on a big toilet? And what have you tried so far?
We found success with a modified version of the oh crap method. For pees, we went bottomless/favorite underwear the first few days so I’d follow along with the small potty and try to catch the pee (facial expression would change). She didn’t want to wet herself so she’d sit and pee. There’s also these water/pee activated stickers that change color that some kids like. I also let her sit in front of the tv / tablet when she was first learning to poop.
My son had a hard time going #2 on the potty and I think sitting and going was harder for him. I saw something about having him sit on the potty and blow bubbles in a glass with a straw and that helped a lot. After like 2 tries with that he caught on.
We just did earn little prizes. It's bad but it worked
Naked weekend and little potty they can get onto independently. They need to be naked or commando to feel the sensation and wetness.
Take a break if it’s not working out. They’re not ready and the more you force it the worse it becomes.
Honestly, take a break if it isn’t working. The stress and pressure will not help the situation and just makes it harder! We started too soon with my oldest and then took a couple month break, and one day she came home from daycare without a pull-up and decided she was ready. My youngest was similar, she walked into daycare on a Monday and said “I’m not wearing diapers tomorrow” and that was the end of it.
We weren’t without accidents and frustrations after that point - but it was way less stressful once everyone, INCLUDING the kids, were ready
We also bought a toilet seat with the kids seat built in (on a magnet) which is awesome. My kids never used a small toilet and just learned to go on the regular potty. We have a couple foldable seats that we taken out, but I’ve heard from friends that their kids who started on the small potty had a harder time going when they were out because they weren’t used to the regular toilet
