At the start of potty training, it doesn't really matter if your toddler actually urinates or has a bowel movement. You don't want to pressure the toddler and get him or her all freaked out about the process. It isn't that the toddler won't be a big boy if he fails to urinate. Nor is it that you won't be proud of him or that you'll be disappointed in him.
We suggest you try not to use words like "good boy!" or "good job!" You want your toddler to master the skill. We suggest you use comments like "that's it!" Or "I notice that you went potty." Or "it is really helpful when you use the potty."
