Potty Training

Some potty training tips for ones baby include: When using the potty, one should leave it where ones child can see it, so that the baby can easily access it and know what it's for. This is especially useful when one has an older child using it, as the baby will see the older child use it and it sets an example. As soon as one sees their child needs to pee, one should encourage them to use the potty. Also take into account that babies can control their bowel before their bladder.

A baby should start potty training as early as one year old. All it takes is positive reinforcement and rewards in order to achieve a correct execution of potty habit.

The age for children to be ready to try potty chairs varies greatly depending on the child. Many children and especially girls are ready for a potty chair around the age of eighteen months but often boys are closer to the age of two.

The widely debated topic of when to start potty training has been discussed on numerous occasions. Because of the diversity in the development of children, the average range for potty training should be anywhere from between 18 months to 3 years.

The correct time to go to the potty varies by individual needs, but generally, it's best to go when you feel the urge to relieve yourself. Frequent bathroom breaks can help prevent discomfort and maintain bladder health. Additionally, it's a good idea to go before and after meals, and before bedtime, to promote regularity and avoid accidents. Listening to your body's signals is key.

Using a family toilet seat for potty training allows the child to get real experience of using the bathroom. The family toilet seat is bigger and the child will need the parent's assistance the first few times.

There is no easy way to do this as every child is different. Girls are generally easier to train than boys. Most children are potty trained by the time they reach four years of age, but it is not uncommon for them to be trained as early as two.

Last time I checked, there is nothing about potty training. Don't make fun of the Bible!

SOunds like needs additional potty training

i say earliest is 10 years old and the latest is never

Because a child will refuse to be cooperative if you punish them and they will begin to be afraid.

Learning something new have to be positive or it will turn into a trauma.You can't punish them for an accident and this is not something they are in control of yet. You don't put a 5yo to drive a car and then punish him when he crash. And you don't want a first-grader in diapers who's in therapy trying to get over his potty-training.

Talk to your child while he or she goes to the bath room. Or you could read a book to her or him.

well they cost 100$ to go to a class so just take your dog outside after every meal

At 2 /12-3years of age

You can get them in many home improvement and department stores and they adjust with a typical range of 16-22 inches from ground to seat . I'm trying to find one that will adjust higher for my tall father, he needs about 25/26 inches.

Anyone know a model that goes higher than 22 inches ground to seat?

. Yes

yes if u just go on youtube and type in potty training son it will come up

My 3 year old son was/is very resistive. What worked for him was a full combination of the following:

- periodically (when you think it is time to try & use the potty) ask him if he wants a candy/chocolate. SHOW him the candy (because he often even resisted that and said he doesn't like candy!). Then when he switches from "no" mode to "yes" mode, tell him that he can have 1 candy for a pee-pee and 2 candies for a poo-poo.

- never ask him if he needs to go pee or use the potty etc. because that just makes him dig in.

- never force him to go.

- never give a timeout etc or anything negative during the event.

- when he is on the potty to do a pee, tell him that he gets another candy for "squeezing it out" - yes that much detail. What we found was that he would sit on the potty but not try to squeeze anything out, then 2 minutes later would have an accident when his pants were back on. He would say "I don't need to go" while he is sitting on the potty. So important to offer the candy for trying to squeeze it out.

- Initially, we needed to make the potty VERY easily accessible. It was in the living room/play room (wherever we were, the potty followed and was right there). This seemed to remove a barrier for him because he didn't have to go all the way to the bathroom (i.e. no situation change).

- Initially, it was crucial for him to have NO pants on at all - naked the whole day. This was another barrier - having to remove his pants before using the potty was too much effort. Also, being used to being in diapers and it being OK to pee/poo in your pants seemed to make him think it was ok to do it in underwear as well. Being naked made him not want to pee or poo on the floor (although he did a few times at first).

- Hygiene aside, we would provide him with the first candy while he is on the potty (not afterwards), so that association is there as part of the experience, not as a reward for after he is done.

- We also found that part of the reason why he didn't want to go is because he didn't want to stop playing or stop watching a show etc. So we kept showing him and explaining that you can "pause" the activity or show and come back to start right where you left off with no loss.

Hope this helps a bit. It was frustrating to us, but eventually everyone becomes potty trained (to various degrees :) ).

If you do it right you won`t spend anything.

Yes. There are youth and adult-sized disposable diapers and "pull-ups" similar to toddler potty training pants (like Depends®) available at local drug stores and other retail outlets. You can also find a wider variety of products and sizes through specialty companies, such as Diapersite and eSpecialNeeds (links below).

Hi! Potty Training is something some parents think is easy, but others need advice to help them get along. Take me for example. I am the mother of two busy little tykes. I found it to be a challenge for my son. Aaron is three and (finally) potty trained. My daughter: Morgan is only 11 months, so she is nowhere close. How I managed to potty train Aaron is we bought him a plastic training toilet. I told him any time he felt like he needed to 'go potty' to go in his potty. Of course, a small child can't learn from word of mouth, so we had to help him. Pull ups are an easy way to help along, but of course you knew that. Some moms are against this but I found it to be helpful: let him run around in just the pull up and maybe a Shirt. That way you have less things to pull off when he needs to go. Each time your son makes it to the potty, give a small reward, may it be a small piece of chocolate or snack. The reward will get him to want to go more and more often. Also, if he just is refusing to say when he needs to go, about every hour - hour and a half take him to the potty and ask him if he needs to go. (90% of the time he will sit down and go for you) even though he didn't say he had to go, reward the toddler. The reward makes him want to go that much more. After careful training, you son will have it down. The hardest part is weening them off the sweets! Hope this helped. It was all I could remember doing . . . but if I think of anything else, I'll post. Good luck!

My son is 42 now, but I still remember potty training him. I used a reward system. I had to make sure that he wanted the reward. For him, it was m & m s. First, he got an m & m for sitting on the potty for a short time, then longer and longer. Finally he peed when he was on the chair. Great cheers!! Lots of m & m s. Then the rewards got bigger and harder to get. For him, listening to a new record when he was successful. It took a long time and takes great patience. You have to start small: maybe just ten seconds on the potty. But it worked! I used the same system on my second son, who wasn't autistic, and it worked with him, too.
