well, if he's already standing up to wee, i think that's good cuz they progress to that anyway!:-D how old is he? my son ... i didn't push it... we just went with the 'flow' so to speak... and he was trained at about 2 years of age. by not pushing him or stressing him out over it, he never ever had any problems with bed wetting or any of that stuff. so it worked out good.

hes 21 months so he is ready to be trained. he was showing signs of being ready because he kept taking his nappy off and spreading poo everywhere lol it was such a nightmere i just cant wait for him to be fully trained.

If he likes doing it standing up, let him. If you're concerned about him making a mess, try target practice. Throw a Cheerio in there and tell him he has to hit it with his pee! Mine is the opposite. Will only do it sitting down and not standing up. I'm just going to let him do what he's doing...at least, he's doing it in the potty and not in the diaper!:)

Actually that is a good thing
Him standing to wee just eliminates one step from the process
Now you dont have to retrain him to stand after he learned to go sitting.
It can be a little confusing for little boys to learn to go wee sitting then have to relearn standing up.
Just be sure you teach him to aim LOL
And dont worry about him going poo
It will come beleive me


myLot reputation of 4/100. nic24uk (354)  3 years ago

it is confusing for me im only used to having a girl lol so wasnt sure to train him to sit first and then later stand but if its ok him standing now ill leave it. im just glad hes doing it in the potty really lol


myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11799)  3 years ago

Exactly!
He is weeing in the potty and that is a great thing!
Dont question how he is weeing in the potty
Just be thankful for the progress that he is making

My little fella does it standing up. I tried to get him to do it sitting down, but he had no interest because daddy didn't do it that way. So I got him a little urinal that hangs over the toilet, so he doesn't have to stand on anything to reach it. And he loves using it.

I have 3 boys and my two older ones when they were toilet training used to sit on the potty, but my youngest son who is toilet training at the moment stand over the potty and does his wee. He has even done poos a couple of times by standing over the potty. He just doesn't want to sit down for it.
