Well potty training is still going great! MissB is wearing pants 90% of the time but she is still wearing pull ups when we go out. Even so she is very reluctant to wet herself and tries her hardest to wait until she has an opportunity to use the potty. We were recently sent a My Carry Potty from Cheeky Rascals to review and this has been a godsend over the last couple of weeks.

Anyone who has been through potty training already will remember the panic when you hear “want a wee wee” at the most awkward time possible when you are out. Even when wearing pull ups MissB gets upset if she can’t just do a wee wee then and there bless her. The My Carry Potty is now an essential part of our going out kit! Whenever we hear those words now we just have to find somewhere quiet to pull over if driving (obviously road safety is important and we don’t pull up on hard shoulders of motorways etc) or a quiet corner or toilet to nip into to use her potty. It really has saved us a considerable amount of stress over the last few weeks! MissB is so much happier going out knowing that she doesn’t need to wet herself as she almost always has a potty within reach :) I don’t think it will be long until we ditch the pull ups whilst out and move to pants seeing as they are rarely wet anymore.

I admit when I first saw the potty, I was concerned it looked a little on the small side compared to MissB’s other potties but the minute I showed it MissB when she got home from nursery she said “want a wee wee in it” and so it was christened within 2 minutes of her seeing it lol. If the size didn’t bother MissB then it certainly shouldn’t bother me lol.

What MissB loves about her My Carry Potty is that she can carry it around and it is hers :) She loves sitting in the boot of our car to use it and she loves taking it everywhere with her. It’s light to carry and small enough that she can carry it around without tripping over it :)

What I love about the My Carry Potty is that it is so so practical! Having a potty that is easy to carry around and can be used pretty much anywhere is a godsend. In particular the fact that if there is nowhere to empty the potty you can just close it up. It’s leak proof and odour proof so you can safely carry it around until you get the opportunity to empty it. The My Carry Potty pretty much lives in our car now and accompanies us on all our trips out, it’s been to York, to Newcastle (OK so the photo below was taken at the top of the Baltic Museum in Gateshead – now that really was a toilet with a view lol) and we wouldn’t leave the house without it!

You can buy My Carry Potty for £24.99 from Cheeky Rascals which I think is a good price for such a practical product. It’s one of those products that will get used time and time again and will save so much stress when out and about. Anything that makes my life easier in some way is worth that money :) It is available in three colours, blue, pink and yellow. I of course opted for yellow as no sooner will MissB finish using it, it will be time for MasterB to start potty training :)
