DS is 22 months. I'm not sure if he's noticing "the feeling" and I'm really confused as to whether he is ready or not for potty learning.
He started asking to "go go" on the potty a few weeks ago, when he read about it in a book. And now, when I bring him to the potty, 80 percent of the time he pees.
I had him in pull ups, but I don't think he noticed the difference between those and a diaper. He goes in his pull ups all the time without asking to "go go".
He's been naked in the mornings for about a week now. I put him in diapers during the late afternoon because we have to run errands and such. When he's naked, he sometimes goes without even noticing it until after he starts peeing. And then there are the times he asks to "go go" and nothing happens when he gets on the potty.
When I don't remind him, he usually does not ask to go, but most days he does ask in the morning when he wakes up and at night before bed. He used to ask during the day.
As you can see, there are times when I feel he's not ready, and times when I feel he is definitely ready.
Its hard for me to gage because I've never done this before and because you don't want to push them - yet you wonder if they just need a little encouragement or training to give them that extra nudge in the right direction.
I would really appreciate any input or opinions/ thoughts from you seasoned mamas who have done this before...
