Most parents start thinking about potty training around now, but there's no perfect time. Every child is different.
You can't force your child to use a potty, but you can try to work out when your child is ready.
There are several signs that your child is starting to develop bladder control. They will know when they've got a wet or dirty nappy or when they're passing urine. They may also tell you in advance if they need a wee.
