Answer 1

Be Consistent. All of these wonderful tricks will do nothing for you if you are not consistent! Develop a plan and put it into action. Don't give up on it until you have it. If you go back to diapers, it will be harder the next time around!

Give your child lots of fluids (lemonade is great because it is a mild diuretic) and take your child to the potty every hour to hour and a half (depending on your child). Give them "potty" themed books that are only used during potty time. Stay there with them as long as you need. When they urinate or have a bowel movement, make a big deal about it (you can even offer rewards) then go about your day. If at any time you see your child doing behaviors that indicate he/she is going to need the potty, head on over to the potty!
Good Luck!

Answer 2

Hi Just let him/ her go naked around the house. She may prefer not to go on the floor and may immediately try the potty. If not, just clean up the mess nonchalantly and tell her that the pee/ poop goes in the potty. She is old enough to understand. She will get the hang of it in a few days. Don't get upset if she makes a mess, just be patient, clean it up, and give her a chance to learn. If she has been diapered up to this point she may have little awareness of her eliminations, and actually seeing how it comes out will help immensely. Of course, reward her for just sitting on the potty and defiantely celebrate when she goes on the potty. Good luck!

girls are easy-er than boys and i don't know which you have or what progress if any you have made so your question is fairly difficult to address however, if the child is going pee but having difficulty with poop the answer is no more diapers or pull ups its that simple

my kids mom strongly apposed this approach fearing the worst when it comes to accidents and the mess that would come with them but truth be told once i convinced HER to try it things just fell into place without incident!! believe it or not kids at that age KNOW what comes out when they potty and trust me they don't want it in their pants (yeah it might happen once or twice but it comes out in the wash) and once they poop in the toilet
GET EXCITED about it and say something like "OH WOW LET ME SEE!!" and then with the same enthusiasm call the other parent or a sibling to come and see too and congratulate the child on a job well done!!! now i now this will create somewhat of a side effect that may seem like a pain in the butt to you but it will pass you see this method really works but after wards you may be shown lots of poop in the weeks to come (that's the side effect) but you will be very satisfied with the end result!!!

good luck

What worked with us was consistency. Take your child to the potty every hour (or so). After a while they'll pick it up. But keep in mind and don't get discouraged, most kids relapse. Just when you think they have it down, they might start having accidents again... it happens. Just start over. (And when they do make it in time get all excited, hi-fives, dances and songs just for them, maybe even stickers. The rewards really help cement it for them.)

Answer 5

After your toddler has had something to drink, take him/her potty. When you're getting ready to go somewhere, take him/her potty first (may take a few minutes). Of course, cheer them on. I made an incentive for my kids that if they quit using pull ups, that money would go toward a special toy a month they wanted. Plus, buy the coolest underwear/panties so they want to use them.

Answer 6

All I can tell you is what we did. I hve a daughter, so I took her to the potty with me every time I went. We sat knee to knee-each of us on our own potty. I'd tell her Mommy was going potty & we'd get quiet & she'd listen for me to pee or poop-then we'd laugh about it & I'd explain to her that soon she would be able to do the same. We'd sit & play games in the bathroom and wait and eventually she would pee. I'd make a huge fuss over her, tell her what a good girl she was & just fawn over her. Soon she was going on her own. I'd say I had her in panties by the third or fourth day of her first going potty in the potty chair. BUT-I had been preparing her for this all along.

Make a game of it. Make it fun. If the child has accidents, just shake them off and keep going. Shaming the child will only prolong it and make them afraid to go. Give them plenty of time to sit on their potty-don't expect them to do their business and get off like we do! And at night-for a while at least-keep them in diapers to reassure them that accidents are okay.

Good luck to you! I hope this helped.

Answer 7

get pull ups in their favorite character. Take him/her to the potty either with you or dad to be an example.
My daughter always went with me and she tried to mimic me.
during the day, use the pull ups and ask them if they have to potty every 30 mins. Use diapers at night just in case, but have them go potty before bed and first thing in the morning.

Answer 8

my son was trained at 2yrs on the dot just about. here is what i did... i used one of the potty seats that you put on top of the real potty. this made my son feel like a big kid(if it is aboy let him sit to start training) try a reward such as stickers and be very patient and try not to punish her or him in the beging they will catch on. also get undies with their favorite charictor on them

Answer 9

they go when there ready not when your ready. i know because i have a 2yr and a 3yr old
