World record pants-change

Today I am entrusted (!) with potty training my 3 year old son. He is not keen.

There seems to be no standard way to effect a smooth transition from nappies to pants without having to go through the odd puddle on seats, carpet, tiles etc.

He appears to be going for the world-record number of changes of pants in a single day.

And he is not fond of the idea of sitting on the potty at all.

He is a very discreet child and in the past would often slip off to a quiet corner of the house to 'do his business'.

Now we are asking him to showcase his bowel movements and he is not best pleased.

Right now he is sitting at the kitchen table with play-doh and a rolling-pin and I am watching him like a hawk in case he suddenly gets the urge.

Tonight I will research best-practice in potty training.
