The Oh Crap! Potty Training Podcast

92: A Reminder About Self Initiation


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of Oh Crap Potty Training, I’m addressing two of the biggest misconceptions about potty training: that it’s a three-day process and that your toddler will self-initiate right away. Spoiler alert—it’s neither of those things! I’m sharing why modern kids, especially post-pandemic toddlers, often need more time and support to master potty training and why self-initiation usually happens weeks after starting, not days. Plus, I’ll dive into the importance of understanding your child’s pee signals and patterns and why realistic expectations can make or break this process. Whether you’re gearing up for potty training or dealing with daycare challenges, this episode is packed with insights and practical advice to keep you and your little one on track.
