sanity girl Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I am starting to think about potty training my 22 month old, but he is very reluctant to sit on the potty we already have at home (even dressed) I think because he finds it uncomfortable. Does anyone know of any particular makes of potty that are better for boys - he is big for his age and has very chunky thighs! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melbourne groover Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 My son is very big for his age and the baby Bjorn one has been great. Nice and solid, not too short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochie Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 My son had same issues and wouldn't sit on an uncomfortable potty!We've got this dino one he loves it and we call it Rex, it seems really comfy ( I tried it out myself in Bromley boots much to my husbands major embarrassment!)http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Babies-R-Us/Bathing/Toilet-Training/Summer-Infant-Dino-Friend-Potty-in-Green(0090198)You can also buy at amazon with free postageGood luck!

sanity girl Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Just checking, having had a look online, do you mean the Baby Bjorn potty chair or just the potty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpy Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 We used the Bjorn potty chair as our boy also found the regular pottys uncomfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGolden Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 We didn't use a potty with either of our boys. I just got them a step so they could stand and wee straight into the toilet. Apparently boys aren't supposed to be able to manage weeing standing hence them being trained sitting on a potty but I didn't know that so assumed the easiest way to do it was to get them a step! I also didn't actually train either of them; they both said they didn't want to wear nappies anymore and were both dry (in the day time) within about three days. My older son was 2yrs 8mths and my younder son 2yrs 10mths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melbourne groover Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 We have the potty and a toilet seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esme Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Chair style ones are great - I got Thomas and he loved it the minute he got it - far more comfy than traditional potties, if a bit more pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanity girl Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 Esme - do you mean a THomas the tank engine potty chair? That sounds like it would be very appealing to my little one! Whereabouts did you get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
