Quick and easy potty training is possible as long as you approach it with the right mindset and reasonable expectations.Â
One of the biggest questions that parents often ask is at what age it is best to begin potty training? Children are typically ready between 18 and 36 months, a great age due to the fact that toddlers are compliant yet also ready for some increased independence. If you wait too much longer than that, you’ll be dealing with a temperamental and strong willed toddler who will might take glee in resisting the process.
Â
So how do you know when your child is ready? Well first off, they must be walking well. Walking helps strengthen the pelvic muscles that help control bladder function. In addition, your child is probably ready if they’re having regular bowel movement at around the same time every day.
Â
Is earlier potty training better? In a word, yes. The child who continues to wear disposable diapers between the ages of two and three will not only be more difficult to train, they will also create an additional half-ton of solid landfill waste.
Â
Potty training a toddler is easier than you might expect. Just follow a few of these simple tips:
Â
1) Mark three days off on your calendar. They must be in a row and entirely devoted to potty training.Â
2) Purchase a child-size potty.
3) Give your child lots of water to make them thirsty.
4) Get them to the potty immediately every time it looks as though they need to go.Â
5) Don’t ask tell. Going to the potty is a must do, not a may do.Â
6) Don’t vacate the premises until your child has gone potty several times and you believe they will be able to do it on their own.
Â
This is just one example of a highly effective approach? It will get messy, but the mess will soon be over. Getting your children out of the diapers will give you a freedom you might have already forgotten.Â
