Recognizing when your child is urinating is a bit harder. Some children, especially as they get older and are voiding less frequently, will stop momentarily to pee. Some will even squat. Frequently watching their fluid intake is more helpful. Whichever may be first, keep in mind that it is usually one before the other and not both simultaneously.
Toilet training is a big process.
Some experts feel that it is the first and biggest developmental step your child will take. The process generally takes several weeks to several months to complete. Two steps forward, one step back. Don't be discouraged if you have a few good days followed by a few bad. Again, it's a process that's going to take time.
