Question

What are the signs that a child is ready to start potty training?

Answer 1

These were the signs I got from my daughter:

She would take off her diaper when she went potty or poo.

She always followed me to the bathroom to see 'how big girls go potty'.

She knew how to pull her pants up or down.

She simply told me she wanted big girl panties.

P.S. When teaching your kid to potty train it really helps to have pants with an elastic waistline-buttons and zippers can frustrate little ones. Good luck!

Answer 2

My 21 month old daughter is almost fully potty trained. I first noticed that she would get really angry and annoyed when she had a wet diaper, also she wouldn't want to keep her diaper on...

She would notice when I went to the bathroom and say "mommy go pee pee" and I would explain to her how big girls go pee on the potty.

She would eventually say "no pee pee in diaper"

Answer 3

Dry diaper in the morning. If they can make it through the night then they are probably ready.

Answer 4

The signs are simple: they listen to you, they p**p too much or they are above 2 years of age.
