  • Hi Michelle, welcome here and congrats on the diagnosis it does take ages I think the earlier the better.

    My daughter is 3.5 years and still not potty trained. She is a slow developer as she can't really talk or walk yet. I'm sure it will come in time. Alisha is right, books are a good way to go and making sure she's in control is another must my GP has said that as well. I try to make it a bit of a game so she's having fun, no luck yet but I'm hoping it will happen naturally in the end and if she's having fun and has fav toy or song playing that can only help.

    I love your idea of a bowl "potty" for cuddly bear to sit on I'm going to try that for my little girl as she is struggling. Xx
