I've mentioned our attempts to potty train E on Facebook quite a few times.She's been pretty switched on with the whole thing since she turned two, but with the huge move across the world we decided to wait a while before attempting it. They say to avoid potty training when you're having an upheaval - well in the space of 12 months she moved out of her home, spent two weeks with one set of grandparents, two weeks with her other set of grandparents, four weeks in a holiday home in Australia, . . .

I even considered taking him out of pull ups at bed time as he was dry at night too. . . . Keep Reading

(This isn't a sponsored post by the way and I didn't receive anything for writing about any of these products).We started off very slowly, using the Pourty potty at every nappy change and spending a bit of time each day without nappies.
