    I think at 18mos to 20mos is a little crazy to start potty training. I have to say though that I am real cut throat with PT. I guess you could say it's bootcamp although I have never called it that. I do it the old fashion way the way my mom taught me when I was younger. And how I taught my own kids...not to mention my littles here. Proud to say all my littles are now completely potty trained!! One just started 3 wks ago and is wearing a pull up at nap bc he wets at nap but no accidents in 2 wks. I believe in having them start at home and on a weekend and then I will do the rest. Here I don't have many kids so I can focus on it and also my set up is really nice so it's really easy for me to potty train. For potty training they go comando for the first week no undies nothing and almost always they pee on the floor at least 2 times and then nothing as it's quiet a shock to them. ::::

    Bc all mine go all the time my last one who got trained new what to exspect and was getting success at home...he had no problems going once we took that diaper a way....he was all for it and he loved going out and buying Thomas the Train undies. He always says...no pee peeing on Thomas...!!

    By the 2nd week undies are on and the 3rd pants with undies. For this little guy that I just got done training...I trained in 3 days and for the past 2 wks he's been in undies. This upcoming we will be putting the pants on!! He knows how to get undies up and down no problems but does need assistance on getting pants up all the way as he likes to take everything off to pee...We'll continue to work on that though....

    Man at 18mos?....(Shaking my Head)
    omg wow you are my hero.... and I hope that you have wood floors or tile... I have carpet throughout the whole house and can't do a program like that, however this is how I trained my son at age 3.

    I do it the opposite of what you do and perhaps thats why it takes a long time. I also require them to start no a long weekend at home, but before we even go there, as soon as they turn 2, I start having them learn to take pants off and on. sit on the toilet after the diaper comes off and I clean them up, flush the toilet and wash your hands. I only do it to desensitize them from the fear of the toilet. It also gets them able to complete the first step of pants removeal, before they even need to go.....
