DD doesn't mind public restrooms, and she became interested in using the adult toilet almost as soon as we started potty training.<br /> Now, she still has pee accidents all the time, over 3 months after the beginning of potty training, so that's another issue. Sigh... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906664 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 14:39:35 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1906664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906659 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 14:31:31 +0000 autumnlove 1906659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A couple of days for pee. Months for poop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906657 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 14:24:27 +0000 BoogieBea 1906657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right away as well. The only time my daughter hesitated was when we had to use one of those portable toilets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906640 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 13:57:41 +0000 cascademom 1906640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right away. He does pretty well in them. At daycare, he got rewarded with a Happy Meal for going in a public bathroom the first time. He loves flushing the toilet anywhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906622 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 13:19:55 +0000 lamariniere 1906622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right away. We did the 3 day method and on day 2 we took him to brunch with friends. We made at least 6 trips to the toilet during brunch, but at least he tried and didn't have any accidents! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906531 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 10:45:51 +0000 78h2o 1906531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter isn't potty trained yet, but she will usually use the potty when asked and sometimes tells me when she needs to go. If she asks to go when we are out, I put her on the restroom potty and she does fine! I was surprised! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906512 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 10:18:19 +0000 Andrea 1906512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right away, she didn't have a problem with using big toilets, inside or outside the home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906508 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 10:16:43 +0000 MamaG 1906508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Immediately, LO loves the public restroom. I'm not sure we've missed a single one so far. We also didn't train with a small potty. We used the big potty at home with the insert. We've since bought new toilet seats that have the toddler insert built in. Genius! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-potty-training-was-your-lo-able-to-use-a-public-bathroom#post-1906499 Sun, 19 Oct 2014 10:00:59 +0000 mrbee 1906499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daughter is completely pee-trained at home; she will happily use her little potty and hasn't had a mistake in weeks.</p> <p>But she hasn't used the big potty yet (aka the regular bathroom), let alone a public bathroom. I figure we'll get her used to the big potty at home, before she uses a public bathroom outside of the home.</p> <p>How long after potty training was your LO able to use a public bathroom? </p>
