My daughter is almost two and she hasn't started potty training. I am debating if I should start it now or wait till her biology clock kicks in and give up diapers naturally. Any suggestions or experiences? Appreciated!
 
go to library to borrow some books and DVDs related to potty training and tell story or play DVD to her. She will gradually know it and want to do it.

I do it for my daughter and she is very eager to do it Once I found her ready, I started the training on her. She got it done in the day within 1 week.

Just my experience.
 
我家儿子是三岁才training的,几个月前试过一次,没成功,大人也累小人也累,每次让他去坐小马桶都象打架一样,最后放弃了。这回是要去幼儿园了,要求必须要training过才行,所以我们又开始训练的,这回和上回不一样的是,在拿掉diaper前的一个星期里,每次换diaper的时候我都告诉他周末要开始不穿diaper了,这样子过了一星期,貌似他心里有准备了,星期六早上开始就不给他用diaper了,然后定时告诉他去上厕所,peepee一直很顺利,可是poopoo的时候有点困难,大概他心里比较紧张,不知道大便的时候坐小马桶是怎么回事,拿掉diaper之后三天都没有poo poo,这回轮到我们着急了,只能强迫他了。给他用了一个supportories,然后给坐在小马桶上,他想不拉都不行了 :D:D:D。。。。。。有了这第一次,他明白是怎么回事了,再后面他想要poo poo 的时候都会告诉我们,到现在差不多training两个月了,几乎没出过问题。

我觉得,还是他自己明白怎么回事之后再训练会容易很多,我们第一次训练的时候貌似他自己还没有准备好,所以大家都很辛苦~~
 
我女儿刚过两岁开始training的

开始以为她还没有ready,因为从来peepee,poopoo也不声张,曾试着让她做小便盆也就坐一下就起来了。可是真开始摘掉纸尿裤,开始一个星期还尿裤子几次(每天至少一次),poopoo到裤子里一两次,第二个星期这种现象就少了,到3个星期就少有意外了,一天下来都会告诉尿尿,拉巴巴。
 
thanks for all the replies!

Just a small question, how do you clean the potty? The poop could be very sticky sometimes.
 
后妈说,一切顺其自然。

poo poo 的时候,我是把training potty上的坐垫摘下来,放大人的toilet上,直接抱上去用的,这样一冲就行了。

wiki说的对,顺其自然就好了。 比如他偶尔已经可以告诉你poo了或者pee了,或者,你也能掌握他的一些规律,这样train起来就很容易。

我家那个2岁9个月才开始train的,也是因为要去学校。
 
18-32 months are th age range for potting training, boys start late and take longer. it takes days and montns (3-12 months) to complete. parents need to be aware of individual differences. it needs to be child-oriented approach.

usually, at age of 2, most children have more intentional control over their sphincters for urination and bowel movement. children at age 2 are seeking for more independence, they know the difference between dryness and wetness of their diaper and they don't like being wet.

other readiness are:
can walk to the potty
they are able to sit steadily
can stay dry in diapers for several hours in a row
they understand and follow one or two simple instructions
they are interested in or curiouse about what parents do on the toilet,
they can let you know(verbal or non-verbal) their needs of pee and poo
has regular and predictable bowel movement


parental readiness:
being ready to spend time and energy on potting training
being patient
not feeling tired or stressed
being able to read their children's cues
expect the unexpected

strategies:
let the child know what you do on the toilet,
let him/her observe you
teach him/her the verbal expression on the urge of pee or poo
play with the potty and get familiar with it
explain what he/she is expected to do on the toilet
cueing children to pee by making "sh..." sound or let the tap water run
some children may cue you by making certain eye contact or facial expression, respect their needs and provide potty ASAP
offer water more often during daytime, and give less drink in the evening
wear diaper over night until the training is completed
priase upon success, encourage and support your child
after repeated success, make this a speial moment by suggesting the use of cotton underwear with favourate cartoon characters
it is OK to call parents for help at night
plastic sheet to help protect the mattress

expect the unexpected:
it it normal that some children may pee or poo in pants after they complete the training
stay calm, reassure your child it is ok
have changes cloths on hand

challenges:
toilet refusal, not ready. you should avoid toiloet battles, give 1-3 months break, allows trust and cooperation
try again, if repeated attempts are unsuccessful, if your child is older than 4 yrs, referral to a paediatrician
regression, if your child has successfully completed potty training, but you have noticed he or she lose control on pee and poo, referral to a family doctor or a paediatrician
