Ryan keeps saying' peepee' & pointing to his nappy loads of times a day. Im not sure if hes telling me hes wet in general or realises wen hes about to wee

I dont want to push it cause im scared of scaring him off potty training lol

Tonight in the bath he shouted 'peepee' 4 times & each time i took him out & sat him on the toilet but he didnt do anything, then after the bath he kept running back to the toilet until i put his nappy on

If he is ready wot can i do to help

When Ethan was probably a similar age we just had the potty where he could see it and get used to it. 

Going to get one for Ellie soon.

Iv had a potty for Ryan since before he was 1 so he definately knows its there  hes not keen on sitting on it tho

Will just keep sitting him on the toilet at bath time & see if he does anything

I have a potty around for Cerys as well but she keeps thinking it's a hat despite my many attempts to teach her what it is there for. 

She has started in the last couple of months to tell me when she has wee'd and poo'd so I decided that in a couple of weeks I'm going to try and potty train her but with a view that if I start to think she really isn't ready at all then I'll just leave it for a bit longer. Like you said P really don't want to put them off it altogether.
