What is the average age for being potty trained during the day and what about nights?

Answer 1

Boys take longer to potty train than girls, the average age for a boy during the day is around 3 and a half. Nights take longer but the average child should be dry at night by around 3 and a half although some do take longer

Answer 2

1

Answer 3

every child has the own time .My son was potty trained with 2 and a half but only during the day. In the night He used the nappy until 3 years old. Now is a big boy of 3 and a half that pee only in the toilet! Good luck

Answer 4

two years old is pull ups that is the time you start teaching your child what the potty is all about by three they really start using the potty and pull ups and start using the potty for most of the time and by 4 they should be fully potty trained with less often accidents they still will have some but not often during the day or nights. if they are not fully potty trained by 4 years old consult the doctor there is something wrong. because the child shouldnt be wetting his pants or bed.

Answer 5

I agree with many others on here- you should never base your child's progress on the average or on other children. However, I will say that in my immediate family we have a large range of ages in potty training. My son was barely 16 months when he stood up in the bathtub and went potty. So we taught him what that was called and put him on the toilet so he could do it some more. Every single time we put him on the toilet- he goes because he knows how to make that body part work. That doesnt mean that he tells us when he needs to go- and he still goes in his sleep so obviously we're still working on it. However, one of my nephews was 3 when they started and it took well over a year for him to get the concept. Has nothing to do with intelligence or discipline--- It's just that every single child is unique. And in some other cultures, they start potty training as soon as the child can sit up- immediately after every drink or meal, they put the child on the toilet and just keep at it. The most important part of potty training is CONSISTENCY (as with everything in a child's life). Good luck!

Answer 6

Average age: around 2 or 2 1/2. Then try this:
Here it is- it has worked for my 2 kids,and others after I tell them........

1. get m and m's handy
2. get a small potty chair
3. get a couple books about potty
4. you need to be home for about 4-5 days straight
5. now you can start. let them run around bare-but
6. Set the timer for 1/2 hour. Tell him/her to sit on the potty for 5 min. (read them a book in the mean time if it's to long for them.) If they go, give lots and lots of praise!!! I mean go crazy!! Give them about 3 m and m's.
7. Set the timer for 1/2 hour
8. Avoid asking the question "you got to go potty?'
9. Timer goes off- ok! What does that mean junior? Time to go potty again he or she would say, or you say it if they don't
10. repeat process all day long. If they go # 2 in the potty, reward with a handful of m and m's. They are very colorful and kids love them!!

11. Praise praise praise. I do spank my kids for behavior problems such as lying, disobedience, and bad attitudes, but never for having an accident. If there is an accident, clean it up queitly, and don't say much at all. Remind them it's ok, but try to make it in the potty next time, or in your own words.

Good luck!!! Hope this helps you. My girl was potty-trained in two days with the method. Took my 2 1/2 year old son a week. Leave pull-ups on them at night just in case, and you can limit drinks- mabbee tiny bit of water and nothing else before bed, or get up in the middle of the night to take him, or her potty.
p.s. if this doen't work at all, try again in a few months.

Answer 7

Depends who you ask - my mother-in-law reckoned that it is about 6 months! However, from my experience of 4 children I would say it varied from about 18 months to 2 years during the day and about 3 - 4 during the night as well, although my eldest son did still wet the bed occasionally until about age 6/7. It really depends on the child but you will have a much better chance of success if you don't put ANY pressure on the child. Just let it happen with a little encouragement.

Answer 8

all children are different I'm not an expert but Ive had three children ill go by them they were all different but around the same age more or less my first child was only 1 and a half, my second he was 2 and my 3 was almost two but i have friends who's children are 3 years and still wetting the bed id say in the fday a child of two and a half should not be wearing nappies and after the age of 3 they shouldn't be wearing nappies for bed but its very difficult to potty train children so its easier said than done

Answer 9

Stop pressuring your child and comparing them to other peoples kids. Girls often train between 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 years old and boys between 3 and 4 years old. Add 6 months to a year for overnight. Don't let potty training become a power struggle. The kid is in charge and the parent will lose this battle. This is your child's accomplishment, not yours.

Answer 10

Average starting age for daytime is round about 2 - 2 1/2 years, but some kids are earlier, some later. NIght time can be 4-5 years and that is considered normal.
