We are going to spend the day with friends on the beach.  Yesterday, was Max's first day of potty training, but it didn't go particularly well.  Anyhow, we're armed with a disposable potty (kindly donated by mum2joshua), lots of wipes and patience.

I'm not worried about him 'doing' anything on the beach.  In fact, it would be an ideal location for him to learn.  At least he can be cleaned in the sea!  It is hard to detect when he's about to 'go' though.

awww good luck..... it's always worring taking them first time with no nappie.

but i persomnally think it helps them learn quicker haveing  a few accidents when out and haveing to be wet for a whike till they can get changed.

aww what better place to learn at the beach,

with Harrison i made sure i took him to wee every 40/60 mins just so he can try if he needed, it might sound alot but it helps to establish when they need to go and also gets then used to going whilst out

Good Luck have fun at the beach!

Have fun!!!!!

Its the ideal place to try him out.

I think I'll bring Ed to trinidad and stay with you while I potty train him!
