We’re over halfway through the day. Our 2 year old has managed to go in the potty 4 out of 5 times so far. Only one accident. Keep your fingers crossed for us!

Update: 5 out of 6 successful potties!

What equipment are you using? I have to start soon, but I'm scared

We have a mix of pull ups, “training underwear,” and just normal kids’ underwear. Though, we started the training with her just completely naked. Once it looked like she understood the concept of going to the toilet, we added the underwear in so she can practice taking them down when she has to go.

As for the actual toilet, we have an Elmo toilet that makes a flushing noise when you hit the lever.
