can i have some good potty training advice plzzzzzzzz?

Answer 1

You have to be consistant. Ask your child constantly if they have to go to the bathroom. Ask every 15 to 20 minutes. Then walk them to the bathroom and have them try to go. They are bound to go one of the times. And get extremely excited when they do go on the potty chair. They will try to do it again and again to try to please you. Asking them constantly can be a pain in the butt (no pun intended) but it's better than washing urine stained clothing all the time. I potty trained my child in one day. We went through approx. 5 pairs of underwear during that one day but she had the hang of it by the end of the day. It's not that hard as long as you are always asking them if they have to go. If you wait for them to tell you when it could take alot longer.

Answer 2

You know alot of people say just wait till they're ready, but if you think about it as parents we teach them on a daily basis what to do and what not to do. If you are ready to take that plunge then do so.

The way I potty trained my son was I kept his diaper/pull up off all day except when he went to bed/nap. I had to follow him around all the time, but it took me about 2 weeks and he was fully potty trained. No accidents even at night. It works if you have the time and the patience.

Good Luck!

Answer 3

We are in the middle of training now. My daughter has a book and a toy that STAY in the bathroom. The only time she gets to look at them is when she is sitting on the potty. The first few times we tried this she had a fit over not being able to bring the book out with her. Now she has learned that she gets to look at that book if she is going potty. Today was our first whole day and I am keeping my fingers crossed that it is going to work!!

Answer 4

at the start congratulations on doing so properly which include your first!!! I truly have a 2 12 months previous son and my father change into continuously telling me how he must have lengthy been out of nappies, curiously we we are all dry through one-one and a 0.5. I stuck to my guns and potty educated at 2yrs 4months and had no actual issues. What i'm attempting to assert is you as a mom recognize the right time on your baby and because your no longer having any issues i truly do not imagine you've harmed her or finished something incorrect in any respect. As for evening-time nappies, i in my opinion am going to go away it a short while until eventually ninety% of morning nappies are dry. I continuously take my infant to the potty earlier mattress and attempt no longer to provide him too a lot to drink after 6pm. Do the evening-time once you're waiting and your daughter is waiting and properly finished on the shape you've made so a approaches.

Answer 5

This is what I use to do with the kids in my classroom. It really worked! All of them were put in underwear when they got there. I would ask them every 20 minutes if they needed to go and they all went to the bathroom about every 30 to 45 minutes and sat even if they didn't have to go, but for those that did go they got a sticker on what we called a potty chart. If they didn't go they didn't get a sticker. I put them in pullups at naptime only and encouraged the parents to do the same things at home. You have to be consitant or it won't work. After I started to see that the pullup was dry at nap we started to do without and use underwear. I would still use it at night untill I felt comfortable with underwear at night or you will need to change the bedsheets. I would put your child in underwear all day even to go to the store unless you are on a very long road trip (1 hour or more). Encourage them, but don't push the issue. Praise them when they do go and do something special that they like and only do it when they go in the potty. After a while you will see a tremendous difference

This process takes a while but it works. I would keep a lot of extra clothing with you at all times. When they have accidents I know it is a pain but trust me changing them helps them to see that they are suppose to associate that gotta go feeling with the potty and they will be able to tell you that they have to go. You will need a lot of patience, but it is worth it.

GOOD LUCK!!

Answer 6

be patient! it really happens when they're ready. My son is 3 1/2 and is finally potty trained during the day, but not at night! But i'm so thankful for this! i let him pick out big boy underwear and told him if he had an accident then he wouldn't get to wear them anymore. Of course they're gonna have a few genuine accidents but then he just started going by himself! We tried everything, the cheerios, the toy bribes the star chart, nothing worked. If they're not ready it's not going to happen! Be patient, they'll let you know. Good Luck!

Answer 7

All three of my kids were trained in two days at age two years and two months.

Have exposed child to potty book over the past few months.

Put aside all your time for this. Or the kid will learn that YOU are the one being trained and they can hit and miss and get attention for it.

dress the kid and make sure they experience the ick of being wet....so none of those training pamper pants.

Make a chart. stars for rewards. Also a treat of an m & m each success.

Have little potty chairs to make them feel comfortable. Have those potty chairs out for a couple of months and talk about what they will be used for.

Lots of praise and encouragment.
Have the kids help wtih clean up of the messes. They need to be partly responsible.

If it is total disaster..tell the kid he is back in diapers. (don't make him feel bad or that he let you down) it is matter of fact.
Then wait a week or two and repeat.

Often the kid feels that they need to succeed in this. So, don't make this a battle of powers.

Answer 8

I can only give you advice on my experience with my 21 month old in potty training right now.

First off I have been taking him to the bathroom with me ever since he was born & telling him about Mommy pee peeing in the big potty. Then I explained to him while changing his diapers.

I started to introduce the training potty to him like 4-5 months ago & let him play with it (Wal-Mart Singing Potty). We compared the flushing of both the real & play one. He lost interest in his real quick!!

About a month ago while I was changing his diaper after a nap, his lil you know what was hard & I knew he had to pee.....so I rushed him into the bathroom, stood him on my feet & he pee'd in the big potty for the 1st time. The look of complete amazement was worth it alone. He got praise & kisses, not candy or a toy.

I've kept this up, taking him to the big potty when he wakes up & about every 15-20 minutes throughout the day. He now pee pee's in the big potty standing up, can wipe himself, flush the toilet (put the lid back down) & then goes to the sink to wash his hands. He let's me know by grabbing his diaper or grabbing my finger to pull me to the bathroom.

We are working on #2 as he does know to sit down on his training potty. The thought process is there, now we have to work on him letting me know instead of sitting on his potty with his pull up/diaper still on & doing #2.

Tonight I bought him some more real big boy undies & told him if he kept dry until he went pee pee, I would let him wear a pair over his night diaper. He did, we put them on & I took him to the mirror--he was so proud!!!!!

Just remember to not rush them. I decided to make it fun & he loves when "he's a BIG BOY" & get's to wear or do "BIG BOY" stuff. Good Luck & I hope this helped or gave you some new ideas.

Answer 9

Well... this worked for me.

If you have a little girl -
I took her shopping with me and we picked out 7 pairs (one for each day of the week) of the prettiest panties (in her opinion, mind you - I'm sure we Moms might not have chosen purple and orange frill lol)

I told her if she soiled them, we would need to throw them away.
And so, we did. Twice. Together we wrapped them up in newspaper, with much sulking, and put them in the garbage. We did not throw out any more :-) (Not counting genuine accidents - be patient & understanding while they learn control)

My friend, struggling with a 3 year old son's training, bought "Superman" and "Batman" undies (OK, I'm really old !) for him and applied the same method - it worked like a charm.

Much (MUCH!!) praise when they do the right thing, and definitely no punishment when they falter - just take it in your stride. It'll be fine - trust me - every child is different, and there are no healthy adults wearing diapers :-) - Take heart, and good luck!

Answer 10

Well with my son every15 min we took him and put him on the potty,and if he would go pee or poop we would clap and say yah and give him a peice of candy and tell him what a big boy he was.And you have to stick with putting your kid on the potty at certain time intervals and also you can let them just sit on the potty with there diaper on so they can get use to it.But once you start putting them on the potty you need to get rid of the diapers and start using underwear and use a pullup at bedtime.Thats what we did and our son was potty broke within two weeks.But yours may take longer or potty break sooner.
