We also have seat reducers, but my LO goes through phases where she's afraid to climb up on the toilet. </p> <p>We also keep an Oxo travel potty in each car. She's pretty much terrified of public toilets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2575034 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 21:57:37 +0000 808love 2575034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Small Baby Bjorn. Worked like a charm. I started a lot earlier though and I had a girl so not sure if it will matter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2575029 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 21:48:17 +0000 nana87 2575029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a 3-in-1 ubbi that is both a small potty and a seat for the normal potty, plus a step stool. Lo isn't fully potty trained yet but she uses it all three ways </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2575001 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 20:55:26 +0000 californiadreams 2575001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i bought small potties but never used them. we ended up training late (close to 3.5) and went straight to the toilet, which i am happy with and will likely do with our second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2574958 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 18:51:59 +0000 Foodnerd81 2574958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started with a smaller seat reducer on the regular toilet and it's gone fine, so I am glad to have skipped that step and extra cleaning. But I also had a little potty on hand in case she wasn't taking to the big one. I didn't open it so I could return it if we didn't need it. </p> <p>Also got a potette for travel and out and about. </p> <p>She was a little more than 2 3/4 when we potty trained.</p> <p>Eta: also we live in a small condo so we were never far from the bathroom, at all. If you have a bigger house I suppose that might be a concern. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2574957 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 18:49:24 +0000 jaguar 2574957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started with a small potty and it was brilliant - and then moved to regular toilet with a soft seat and ladder, so she can get up more independently. (And less cleaning!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2574956 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 18:45:00 +0000 brownepiano 2574956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Bjorn potty. It's been nice to have both. When we first started we could take the little one with us in the car and now if company is over we can move it out of the bathroom so he doesn't have accidents waiting for someone to get out of the shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/small-potty-or-regular-toilet#post-2574952 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 18:33:48 +0000 Winterbabies 2574952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to start potty training my 2.5 year old DD. With my son, we didn't use a small potty and had him use the regular toilet. </p> <p>Did you use a small potty when potty training? If so, any recommendations on which one? </p>
