[quote=Anonymous]We were later to training our kid because she was in treatment for brain cancer from 20 months to age 4. I honestly don’t remember exactly when we did it, but sometime after her third birthday we did it with a very chill approach. We didn’t have a chamber pot, we just had a ring on our regular toilet. We never did some intense three day nakedness thing. We just started taking her to the bathroom regularly and asking her if she needed to go a lot.

She still wore a pull up on chemo days because I was nervous about making it to the bathroom quickly enough while she was attached to an IV. I definitely remember that she wore a pull up around Disney on her make a wish trip that year. She didn’t have any accidents at chemo or Disney, but it just made life simpler not to worry about it. It was all fine and she basically potty trained just fine.

There are many ways to potty train, and they are all fine. Assuming your kid is neurotypical they will figure it out. That said, you do have to decide to do it. They aren’t going to magically decide to do it themselves.[/quote]
