Started potty training at 3, and Noah will be 7 in May and we are FINALLY FINALLY 100% trained, have been for about 6 months so I'd say around 6 years old he was 95% trained. It takes a LONG time. At 3 he seemed ready and had the pee down for weeks at a time, then BOOM, would pee in his pants 10 days in a row. The poop part was the worst and took the longest, and I'd say he was around 5 1/2 when we'd go for 5 days or more without an accident. It's so funny now that he just goes to the bathroom by himself and I can hear him peeing in there without ever coming to get me to help him at all. But he still yells for me to wipe him when he poops, but I don't care cause changing those poopy pull ups was HORRIBLE. Just keep in mind that they will potty train when THEY are ready, not when you are ready for them. It seemed like the more we pushed him and the more stressed he got about potty training, the further behind we got. I saw a big difference in Noah, compared to my 3 girls. BIG difference, and I don't think it's cause he is a boy, I think the whole Ds thing plays a big part. He does everything when HE is ready, reading, learning, cleaning up, it's a big, long routine.
