I just started the process of potty training DS27mo. He is absolutely physically ready since he can hold it in for over 3 hours. The problem is, he is an EXTREMELY sensitive child and gets very nervous when getting around the toilet. He said he is "afraid to go because there is an alligator in the toilet".
Just wondering if anybody has any tips for potty training a sensitive toddler with extremely high awareness?
I am considering just letting it go for now but it seems the 2 days we have been actively trying has at least made him more comfortable wanting to sit on the toilet. Before, when I tried, he wouldn't have any of it.
DS4 potty trained easily at 19 months and although he is a EG child he did/does not have the same sensitivities as his brother. Any tips would be appreciated.
