How many accidents for first day potty training?

Day 4 going soooo well!! His even telling me when he needs to go! I'm so proud of my lil boy I've gone out and his with his dad now, telling him when he needs toilet

Bookworm! That's amazing your son began potty training so early x

I had two extremes: My son was 3 years old when we started and he wee'd every time he went - so we went trough 6 - 8 pairs of pants or more a day. This went on for months. By the time he started school at 4 years he was still wetting once or twice a day!!
My daughter we took out of nappies at just over 4 1/2 years because she was due to start school (she has delays so we couldn't train her earlier). Over the summer she wet maybe once or twice a day for most of the summer holidays - towards the end she started holding onto it and would only wee once we put a nappy on her (at nap time and nighttime), she didn't actually wee on the toilet!! Once she started school she was fine.

I think she had 10 accidents in half a day. I didn't realise she peed so often.

I have stopped for the moment, will try again in a few months.

She'll have to be dry before September as school will start and schools in France will not accept children fulltime who are not dry and finding part time day care is a nightmare.

On our first day maybe one or two, none at all on the second or third . . . And then after about a week we went to 10 a day I think once the novelty wore off Xander just didn't want to interrupt his day to pee. Thankfully from day one he's barely ever had any accidents outside.

We started toilet training in July, Xander was three on saturday and finally seems back to where we're were week one - no accidents for 4 or 5 days

I think lot of time they don't know they need to go until the nappy is gone and it's explained to them, and it takes a lot of wet legs for them to understand what you're aiming for
