Good luck with that! It is very difficult with a toddler and a new baby, I agree. You need lots of patience. (Are you SURE you don't need a wee?!)

I could have written this exact same post about a year ago!! Without trying to sound patronising, I have found that the best thing to do is relax and let him go at his own pace.
Oh and wood floors are the best when you're potty training! x

we are potty training Ollie too. there have been pub=ddles but after about a week I think he is improving, he loves taking the weewee to the toilet and then pulling pushing the button! We also got a poo (by making him blow bubbles on his potty!

Good luck, it's hard work! When all else failed I bribed with chocolate buttons (that's my one bit of 'useful advice' to anyone potty training!).

Potty training is so much fun I am still working on it with my three year old. He is very reliable with #1. But he is afraid to do #2 on the potty. We are almost through it! Good luck!

Eeek potty training. Toddler was showing signs that he wanted to start training but like you say, as soon as baby girl arrived the poo hit the fan! Not literally, thankfully. He is only just 2 tho so not to bothered but it is hard with the 2 of them! Thanks for the comments on my blog btw, how is your little E getting on? x

Feeling your pain! It does get easier though so stick at it and 3 home strikes on the potty on the first day is very good, well done big E.

I feel for you! My posts from our potty training days may help… You just search "potty" and lots of entries come up! Pretty much all of Nov 2007 revolved around pee, poop and potties…
