When to leave the house while potty training

Question

When did you feel comfortable enough to do few short trips while you were still potty training your little one? We’re finishing day 2 over here and I don’t know if I could make it being cooped inside all day/night again 😵‍💫 but 3-4 days at home is my goal. We do go outside for a bit but go back to potty when the timer goes off. It’s exhausting. Yesterday was miserable. Today was better. 
I know each child and experience is different! I’m just curious when you felt it was time and how did you continue training while going out? 
I also ask because I remembered my daughter has a soccer class on Saturday (40 mins outside and toilets are all the way inside so I don’t know how I’ll do it) and my birthday is next week and I’m getting asked on where I’d like to go/what I’d like to do…and I just don’t know. 
Advice 😅

Answer

We bought a Potette travel potty. It doubles as a potty seat for public restrooms. If there was an emergency potty situation while out and about, we just opened the trunk and set the potty up for them. 
You can find them on Amazon, they’re less than 20 bucks.

Answer

I stayed in a week.. was hard but she had little to no accidents by day 7.. however she was 3.. and could communicate when she wanted a wee.. u'll be fine with short walks as long as he/she goes to the toilet beforehand.. and then my daughter would last 2 hrs til next potty.. but every child is different.. for long drives or days out.. we did put her in a pull up.. to which she hated so she told us when she needed to go.

Answer

I just used pull ups until she was fully potty trained.

Answer

We didn't. We went out and about, but we didn't quit pullups cold turkey. She had them or training undies with the plastic pants over them. We would go potty before leaving and return in little time. She was just over 2.

Answer

I carried a little potty seat in the van and they used it whenever. We still have it in the van. Not super sanitary but we were mobile. I would put the poop or pee in a trash can and clean it with wipes. I don’t know if that’s gross but I figure kids are gross so my standards are low lol.

Answer

We didn’t start potty training my son until he was 4. When we went out, he would have on a pull up or training underwear. We kept extra clothes in the car in case he couldn’t make it. At home, he had his potty seat in his own bathroom, I had one in my bathroom, and one in the downstairs bathroom. We did reminders and eventually it caught on. He stopped using overnight diapers when he was 7. He’s 8 now.
