Potty Training Toilet
help with potty toilet training?
my son is going to school in september and i need him out of nappies by then
he is 3 in august and im finding it hard to train him to use the potty / toilet
the only time he will use the toilet is when im putting him in the bath
he wont even sit on the potty
i have tried treating him for using the toilet . charts , sweets , biccys , praise . singing dancing and on and on
nothing seems to be working
iv bought him big boy pants but he will just mess them ...iv tried leaving him without nappie or pants but he will just stand and pee and its no good for my carpet ..
he wont even tell me he has a dirty nappie ..when he has pooed and i ask him if he has pooed he just says no i not pooed
im stuck ..please any help would be great
i do also have a daughter and she was so easy and i had no problem so its not like i don't have experience with this
thanx lisa
I went and bought my son a musical potty so that when he peed it sang. He first started walking at 8 months so I started randomly sitting him on the potty with his clothes and letting him get used to the potty. Then after he got used to it he started playing with it. So then I would pour water in the toilet and let him hear the music play. I explained to him that when you use the potty like a big boy it plays music.
I read an article saying to let your child run around naked. So I did and like 20-30 minutes after giving him something to drink I would make him sit on the potty. When he had to pee I noticed his penis would get erect so I would then rush and put him on the potty and have him sit in front of tv so he wouldn't be bored. I would try to leave him on there until he did something. When he finally peed my mom and everyone just happened to be there and we cheered and danced and did all types of crazy stuff. So I kept that up until he finally started booing in the potty.
By then I got a little hip to his schedule and would say, Do you have to potty? before taking him even though I knew he did so he would understand what was going on. I then moved the potty to the bathroom instead of having it wherever he was in the house. When I made him go to the bathroom I pretended to use the bathroom with him and he just got so used to that process that now he goes all by himself. But now he just has to learn to wipe his butt properly so no more skid marks! But that's another conversation. Hope it helps!

Tricks to Faster Potty Training
Training your child to use the toilet on their own can be a very hard task for new parents. It is important for a child to learn how to use the bathroom once he/she is old enough, and before he/she needs to go to school. There are many different ways that you can make this potty training or toilet teaching a lot easier on yourself and on your child.
The first thing to do is to purchase a proper potty seat for your baby to use while training. Getting an attractive potty seat will make your child want to use it more. Try to get it in your child's favorite color or with their favorite character design. There are also special potty seats that help your child potty train faster, like ones that play music whenever your child uses the potty.
Children naturally love to sing and dance, so try to apply this to their potty training. You can have a special potty song for your child every time they go to the potty, or even a special potty dance to reward them for using the potty properly. This will make your child's potty experience more enjoyable and it will encourage them to use the toilet. There are many different potty dances and songs that parents have access to through the internet and books.
Aside from singing and dancing, you can also let your child read on the potty if they like reading. They can choose a few books that they can only read on the potty, which will encourage them to go to the potty in order to finish their book. There are also books written for children about using the potty.
Another way to get your child to use the potty is to get them interested in it by adding red or blue food coloring to the toilet water. Then, after they're done using the potty, the water will change to a red or green color. This amazes children and will make them want to use the potty more often.
In order to make sure your child takes the opportunity to use the potty when they need to, you can set a schedule for their bathroom breaks. For example, every 30 minutes or so, you should let them go to the bathroom to see if they need to use the potty. Letting them drink plenty of fluids will increase the number of incidents for teaching them potty use. And after a while, your child will get used to it and go even without being told. Never withhold fluids, even when you are frustrated by accidents, because this is not healthy for a child or anyone.
Remember that your child needs to be rewarded and acknowledged when he/she uses the potty properly. For example, give them a treat like a yummy snack or a small toy after they are done using the potty. Or you can give them stickers to stick on a book to note how many times they used the potty correctly. Make sure to tell them how proud you are of them for learning how to use the toilet on their own. Parents who are enthusiastic will find that their children train faster as a general rule.
When potty training your child you should get rid of the diapers so that they don't get the temptation to wet themselves. This includes the kind of disposable pants that do not feel wet against a child's skin like cloth pants will. This will hasten the process of potty training so that your child learns the difference between wet pants and dry pants. You should also get them nice underwear so they will be motivated not to avoice wetting their pants. You can fall back on disposable pants for naptime and nighttime or for leaving the house if the toilet training is going slowly.
