Toilet
humour
If there was ever an advert for a potty trainer, it would definitely
include the personality trait 'good sense of humour'. We decided to show
the lighter side of toilet training but be warned - those of a delicate
constitution (or weak stomach) should turn away!
The postman only rings once
"We used to live in a bungalow with the toilet next to the front door.
The postman got the fright of his life one morning when he was posting
the mail through the letterbox … only for my son to post a parcel of his
own back through ... not nice but the post man did see the funny side
of it in the end!"

A show (and hide!) home
"We decided to check out a new show home that had opened to get ideas
to decorate our new home. The show home was about 20 minutes on the motorway
so we put our son Max (then 2) on the potty before we left the house.
We had to stop at what seemed to be every lay by so Max could go (we had
brought the potty with us). We made it to the show home, had a look then
came out. We had parked opposite and it was a beautiful summer's day.
Max decided before he got into the car that he needed the potty so out
of the boot it came. Five minutes later he was still there singing 'Oh
I do like to be beside the seaside!'. He had decided to do a poo and now
was requesting a book. Well, we had no clue what we were going to do with
his poo and tried to hurry him to no avail. After the deed, we had to
dig a small hole to bury his little treasure. We laugh every time we pass
the show home estate when we are on the motorway."

A poo in the passenger seat
"My sister-in-law is potty training her youngest, who is nearly 2. Her
3.5 year-old just couldn't hold it anymore in the supermarket, and announced
he was desperate for a poo as she was trying to get the shopping through
the checkout. They got as far as the car and he just had to go, so she
whipped out the little one's pot and the older one delightedly did a massive
poo that filled it right up. BUT there was nowhere to dispose of it, and
there wasn't a liner in the pot anyway, so she had to drive all the way
home with a pot full of steaming poo on the passenger seat!"
Lisa (lisalulu)
That's how he got his nickname
"One fatal morning, my son (2.5 years) decided he was a big boy and wanted
to relieve himself by himself! He went to the loo but unfortunately missed
the toilet and pooed down his pyjamas onto the floor. He then decided
he was grown-up enough to clean up after himself but he dropped it on
the bath mat, the bidet and the floor. He noticed poo marks on the white
bathroom floor so used tissues to wipe, or should I say 'spread', it everywhere.
Along the sink, bath, work surfaces etc. He discovered he had a passion
for cleaning - so he cleaned or wiped all round the bathroom! I jumped
out of bed when he told me he had done a poo in the toilet - as I entered
the bathroom I only noticed the toilet side - and let out a shriek but
as I turned round and saw the poo smeared around the entire (and we have
a large bathroom!) bathroom. I screamed and shrieked!
"Eventually we managed to clean it all up some two hours later and my
darling son couldn't understand what the fuss was about - it was about
that time we nick named him Poo-der-van-der-hoo-der!"
Farhana Loonat
A poo on display
"I'd forgotten this - although to be honest, this is about wee not poo.
My son did a wee in Homebase (although it was Texas back then) in the
toilet of one of their display bathrooms ... he was so proud when he told
us and couldn't understand why we left the shop so quickly!"
Jan (Whingealot)
I had to throw away my new bra
"I am in the process of potty training my little girl and we have had
some funny moments. The one that most sticks to mind is when I was doing
the ironing and waiting for her to poo. She took my bra from the ironing
pile and pooed in my bra cup! I was totally shocked and had to throw away
my new bra. We haven't successfully trained her yet but it is still early
days but, if she carries on the way she is at the moment, I am sure we
will have plenty more accidents and funny moments!"
Hayley
Teas and wees
My son was just going through the night and he had a potty by his bed
that I sometimes woke him up to use.
One day I told him to tell grandma what a big boy he was using his potty
at night and he wanted to take her upstairs to show her. I presumed he
was just going to point out the potty by his bed so I waited downstairs.
I heard my mum crying with laughter and went up to see what was going
on. Rather than show her the potty as expected he was proudly holding
his big yellow Fisher Price teapot full of wee! Unbeknown to me he had
(more than once) got up himself during the night and pee'd in the teapot!
Sarah
She was appalled by our cat
"When my daughter started potty training she once did a poo while my
husband was meant to be supervising. She got off and told him she'd finished,
so he shouted to wait. In the meantime, our cat Bean came up to have a
sniff and our daughter was utterly appalled and could be heard really
shouting at him: 'No Bean, don't smell my poo, it stinks, no Bean!'. It
was her little voice, all indignant, that got me!"
Natasha (nheaton)
She put the poo into the potty
"We were teaching my daughter how to use her potty and she finally sat
on it, saying 'WEE!' and she done one. I was so pleased, running around
and shouting about it to my partner, that I didn't realise till I stopped
and turned around that she had stood up only to have pooed at the side
of the potty. I tried to explain the poo also needed to join the wee in
the potty so she lifted the poo in her hand towards my face and plopped
it into the potty, shouting: 'POO IN TOO!' How can you comment on that
one?"
Bethanymarie
He ordered it out!
"My son once, when slightly constipated, had a 'hanger on' that wouldn't
drop off. He sat in the bathroom straining until he was purple in the
face, screaming through gritted teeth 'Come on poop-poo! Come oooouuuuuut!
Come on, come on!! Poo-poo, come out of my bottom!' "I think it worked
as well!"
