    How did you potty train your kids (OP)


    If there was a parenting section then Id have posted this on there but I cant seem to find one so Ill post it in the family section if thats ok.

    My son is nearly 2 and a half and I know I should be potty training him but its hard. I need some help. I bought potties and a kids toilet seat ages ago and my son doesnt sit on them, he gets up straight away. I tried substituting his nappy with proper pants and kept telling him to tell me if he wanted a wee and tried to get him to sit on the potty but he would do a wee. Then I saw a wet patch so had to get him washed up and changed. I still left the nappy off but again he weed himself so I gave up and he went straight back into his nappy. So the whole ordeal lasted around 2 hours.

    He didnt even tell me that he had weed.

    Ive heard loads of peoples methods but I dont know what to go for. I know I should probably stick with what I was doing before but its hard if youve got to juggle a baby as well as other things. I dont want wee all over my carpet and settees.

    What did you do with your kids and what age did you start them?

    I strongly suggest, when u start to continue and not stop even if it takes a long time. If you start and stop regularly, he will not understand and get confused to what hes supposed to do..
    Look for any of the following signs that your child is ready:

    Your child stays dry at least 2 hours at a time during the day or is dry after naps.
    Bowel movements become regular and predictable.
    Facial expressions, posture, or words reveal that your child is about to urinate or have a bowel movement.
    Your child can follow simple instructions.
    Your child can walk to and from the bathroom and help undress.
    Your child seems uncomfortable with soiled diapers and wants to be changed.
    Your child asks to use the toilet or potty chair.
    Your child asks to wear grown-up underwear.

    i disagree. there is no point continuing if ur child is clearly not ready. if they dont get it now, they probably wont for a whole while after. why stress everyone over it when u could just leave it til the child is ready? n the finishing time would be the same as if u had waited anyway. the child will not be confused... trust me.

    there is no point causing urself n the child all that hassle when u could always try again in a month or two.

    the other points about knowing when ur child is ready are good indicators but as with everything, each individual child is different n develops at his/her own pace
