Hey Simone! Yes, it is quite early! We were talking about our three year old at the time, who is now four. We’re not pushers when it comes to potty training 😉 I just don’t have the energy! My 18 month old is now three, and we’re just now starting with him. ;}

Only thing I wonder is if you were to wait a few more months to potty train – 18 months seems quite early? We waited until our little ones were just over 2, they obviously sat on the potty before that but I still had them in pull-ups when they were out and about. Both did it in one day – and never had any accidents ….well, apart from the one time my youngest couldn’t wait and did a poo in the corner of our sitting room!

I have 6 kids and almost 8 grandkids and in my experience girls are harder. I babysit one of my granddaughters which had me going thru potty training AGAIN. What we found to help was each time she went potty in the toilet she recieved a quarter for her bank. Each time we went to the Dollar store or Target she was allowed to take $2.00 with her. Thank God for Dollar stores! She loves having her own money in her purse and paying (we paid the tax). Not only was she learning about rewards for doing good, she was learning all about money. Believe me it was worth every cent to teach these valuable lessons. Now we do the same when it comes to taking medicine. That used to be a fight, not anymore and she has quite abit of money saved up in her bank.
