When can you potty train a baby boy

Question

My son is 13 months old, he crawls, stands and walks when holding onto my hand or an object but can’t on his own yet.

Answer

Usually it’s suggested you wait until they show signs of readiness such as sleeping through the night without wetting their diaper, wanting to be changed immediately after wetting their diaper, trying to take their diapers off, showing curiosity about the potty, and being able to tell you when they need to go. I work at a day care and we encourage littles to start trying and gaining interest at about 18 months, and then actually potty training begins usually between 18-24 months depending on readiness of babies

Answer

Physical signs:
Is coordinated enough to walk, and even run, steadily.
Urinates a fair amount at one time.
Has regular, well-formed bowel movements at relatively predictable times.
Has "dry" periods of at least two hours or during naps, which shows that his bladder muscles are developed enough to hold urine.
Behavioral signs:
Can sit down quietly in one position for two to five minutes.
Can pull his pants up and down.
Dislikes the feeling of wearing a wet or dirty diaper.
Shows interest in others' bathroom habits (wants to watch you go to the bathroom or wear underwear).
Gives a physical or verbal sign when he's having a bowel movement such as grunting, squatting, or telling you.
Demonstrates a desire for independence.
Takes pride in his accomplishments.
Isn't resistant to learning to use the toilet.
Is in a generally cooperative stage, not a negative or contrary one.
Cognitive signs:
Understands the physical signals that mean he has to go and can tell you before it happens or even hold it until he has time to get to the potty.
Can follow simple instructions, such as "go get the toy."
Understands the value of putting things where they belong.

Answer

Start around 18 months. If they don’t have interest try again every 3-6 months. My son will be 3 in August and this has been a major pain in the butt. He will flat out tell you no he won’t go on the potty. we even tried bribes and no dice. Daycare isn’t making any progress with him either. Bottom line: don’t force it.

Answer

I feel like the earlier the better. Just start by showing him the potty and having him sit on it.

Answer

you could try around 18 months. if they aren't ready try again at 2
