I got DS two potties (one for home, one for in-laws) and he loves to play with them. He will carry them around, but when it comes to sitting on them, he freaks out.

He never leaves DH or I alone when we are in the bathroom, and at daycare he has seen the other boy there using the potty. We've read books and watched TV shows about the potty. He knows when he is wet/dirty, but hates having his diaper changed, so won't tell us (but we know and change him anyway, obviously).

Is DS not wanting to sit on his potty just a sign that he's not ready yet, even though there are other signs he is getting ready? I don't want to push him too early, but want to give him the exposure and normalize it all, so it's there when he is ready.
