When is the right time to start?

[SiMaMa]

My son is 8 months old, and I am wondering when would be a good time to start potty training him? He can do everything pretty much besides walk (although he can stand by himself) And also, what is a good schedule to start him on?

I think that the best time to start potty training is when your child shows interest in some way whether it be taking off his or her diaper. or indicating
some communication even just pointing when they go pee.or poop in their diaper They have to kind of be aware of their body which usually doesn't happen until around 2. although all kids are different i would go for signs and gradually go from there but remember to show lots of encouragement and not to be too hard on accidents. because I've heard that too much pressure on a child will actually
make them rebel against potty training. It is also easier if the child can be at home and not on the go alot when they first start potty training
