Our daughter started potty training right before she was 2, and took to it pretty easily. I know boys tend to be more of a challenge, but we’re just not sure what to do at this point.

Our son started potty training around 2 y 2 months, and it started off going well. He was bottomless at home and mostly doing well. Unfortunately because he’s also in preschool/daycare, he was coming home with 1-3 soiled sets of clothes a day. As 2 months wore on, he kept having more and more accidents. If he’s wearing anything down there, he would just say “it’s a diaper enough” and wasn’t even telling us.

So, we’re in a reset. He’s back in diapers, and for the first few days he would still tell us when he needs to go, but now he’s stopped doing that. At this point I’m worried that this reset has caused him to care even less when we start back up (in about 2 weeks).

Any similar experiences? Ideas?

    We just kept the diaper on, but used the pull up kind. Took her frequently for a month or two and she just got it. Super easy. However, every kid is different. She was a nightmare to get her sleeping consistently in her own bed and staying asleep. She’s 11 now and sleeping is still kind of an issue sometimes.
