My 2.9 mth mindee uses the potty upstairs in the bathroom (haven't managed to persuade him to use the toilet yet). When he needs to use I go upstairs with him, he's been using the potty a while now but we only moved the potty upstairs last week (I'm hoping being nearer to the toilet will encourage him to use it).
Anyway he has been my only midee throughout his potty training but next week I have a 6mth and a 20 mth starting, what will I do then as I can't leave them while I go upstairs with him and I think he's properly too young to be going upstairs on his own. Ofsted are coming in 2 weeks and I don't know what to do for the best.

i'd move the potty downstairs and in a seperate room/hallway etc.
that way LO can take him/herself to the potty and you can supervise hovering between the doorways.

I'd do the same, otherwise you'll be stressed out trying to get 3 upstairs to the toilet!

Thank you, I think that's what I'll do. I've suddenly gone into panic mode about everything little thing :panic:
