Well that’s it my little guy is now 3 years and 3 months and he is completely nappy free and is now in big boy pants all day everyday!
That first stage of potty training (daytime potty training) was not without some potty disasters but we kept at it and we got there in the end.
Since being dry for months we decided after our holiday last month that since his pull up was dry at night we should make the leap and so 5 weeks ago we started the final phase, we got rid of the potty and chucked out the pull ups!
I am so very pleased to report that for 5 weeks we have had no instances of wet pants, wet beds or even upset, it seems that we are on that final stage of toilet training.
With the help of Andrex they have put together a super handy Andrex Clean Routine to not only help Joshua on the next stage of his toilet training mission but also to help others keep it clean! ……
Recently Andrex® undertook a study on people’s current toilet habits and I have to say I am shocked 37% are wiping themselves incorrectly (15% wipe back to front, 22% wipe both ways.) ….. yuk!
This is why making sure that Joshua learns good practical toilet habits from this age is so important, so it becomes second nature to clean properly … that and lets face it … no one likes skid marks and upset tummies and I am not the only one as GP and author Dr Carol Cooper commented: “The importance both physically and psychologically of being and feeling clean after going to the bathroom is huge. ..”
After all this is half the problem we never discuss the natural things from periods to sex to toilet habits … OK no one says we have to discuss them round the tea-table but still if we did discuss things maybe we could all find a way to be cleaner and in turn make us happier and cleaner! .. well you never know!
Now if only someone would share with my family the right way to put on a toilet roll.
Scratch that … or even if they replaced that empty roll … we will start there.

Oh bless him he is growing up so quickly. I agree with your “right” way of putting the toilet roll on – you’d like it here they are well trained.
yay the right was is the only way 😉
Wow he has done fantastically! LP is three in August and still in nappies at night and useless at wiping. Great infographic! x
we are lucky i think that he just clicked .. the first few weeks we thought we would never crack it lol
Thank goodness it’s not just me who puts the loo roll on this way, not sure who puts it on the ‘wrong’ way at work but I always put it back lol!
lol lol you can come and be in my gang Ellie! x
