Get The Best Baby Potty Seats 

Most children develop control over their bowel and bladder by 18 months. This skill is necessary for children to physically be able to use the toilet. How ready a child is emotionally to begin learning to use the potty depends on the individual child. Some children are ready at 18 months, and others are ready at 3. While every child is different, about 22% of children are out of diapers by 2&frac12;, and 88% of children are out of diapers by 3&frac12;.

Your child is ready to learn to use the toilet when he or she:

<ul>
	<li>
	Stays dry for at least 2 hours at a time, or after naps
	</li>
	<li>
	Recognizes that she is urinating or having a bowel movement. For example, your child might go into another room or under the table when she has a bowel movement. This is important&mdash;if you child does not realize she is having a bowel movement, she won&rsquo;t be successful at potty training.
	</li>
	<li>
	Is developing physical skills that are critical to potty training&mdash;the ability to walk, to pull pants up and down, and to get onto/off the potty (with some help).
	</li>
	<li>
	Copies a parent&rsquo;s toileting behavior.
	</li>
	<li>
	Can follow simple instructions.
	</li>
	<li>
	Most important, your child wants to use the potty. He may tell you that he wants to wear &ldquo;big boy&rdquo; underpants or learn to go potty &ldquo;like Daddy does.&rdquo; He may feel uncomfortable in a soiled diaper and ask to be changed or ask to use the toilet himself.
	</li>
</ul>

<h2>When Not to Start Potty Training</h2>

There are some issues that can sometimes get in the way of successful potty training. For example, when children are going through a significant change or several changes at once (see list below) it might be smart to hold off on adventures in potty training. At these times, children often feel overwhelmed and sometimes lose skills they have already learned or were making progress on, like potty training. Common situations that can cause stress and are generally not good times to start training include:

<ul>
	<li>An upcoming or recent family move</li>
	<li>Beginning new or changing existing child care arrangements</li>
	<li>Switching from crib to bed</li>
	<li>When you are expecting or have recently had a new baby.</li>
	<li>A major illness, a recent death, or some other family crisis</li>
</ul>

If your child is in the middle of potty training during a stressful time and seems to be having more accidents than usual, know that this is normal. Your child needs all of your patience and support right now. She will return to her previous level of potty training once things have gotten back to normal.

There is no right age to toilet train a child. Readiness to begin toilet training depends on the individual child. In general, starting before age 2 (24 months) is not recommended. The readiness skills and physical development your child needs occur between age 18 months and 2.5 years.

Your child will show cues that he or she is developmentally ready. Signs of readiness include the following:

<ul>
	<li>
	Your child can imitate your behavior.
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child begins to put things where they belong.
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child can demonstrate independence by saying &ldquo;no.&rdquo;
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child can express interest in toilet training (eg, following you to the bathroom).
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child can walk and is ready to sit down.
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child can indicate first when he is &ldquo;going&rdquo; (urinating or defecating) and then when he needs to &ldquo;go.&rdquo;
	</li>
	<li>
	Your child is able to pull clothes up and down (on and off).
	</li>
</ul>

Each child has his or her own style of behavior, which is called temperament. In planning your approach to toilet training, it is important to consider your child&#39;s temperament.

<ul>
	<li>
	Consider your child&#39;s moods and the time of day your child is most approachable. Plan your approach based on when your child is most cooperative.
	</li>
	<li>
	If your child is generally shy and withdrawn, he or she may need additional support and encouragement.
	</li>
	<li>
	Work with your child&#39;s attention span. Plan for distractions that will keep him or her comfortable on the potty chair. For example, reading a story to your child may help keep him or her interested.
	</li>
	<li>
	Consider your child&#39;s frustration level, and be ready to encourage and reassure him or her at each step.
	</li>
</ul>

Before you begin toilet training, have your child examined by his or her health care provider. During your child&#39;s check-up, talk with the health care provider about the child&#39;s developmental readiness and temperament. Your health care provider can help you determine whether your child is ready to begin toilet training and help you plan your approach.

Timing is important. Toilet training should not be started when the child is feeling ill or when the child is experiencing any major life changes such as moving, new siblings, new school, or new child-care situation.

If your child is feeling too pressured to toilet train or if the process is too stressful, he or she may begin to withhold urine or stool. Withholding can be the result of too much pressure or can be caused by constipation (hard and painful stools).

Try not to feel pressured to toilet train your child. If you are feeling pressured to train your child because of caregiver considerations or family members&#39; views, your anxiety about toilet training can create anxiety in your child.

<h2>GETTING STARTED</h2>

<h3>What to Know</h3>

<ul>
	<li>
	Toilet training includes discussing, undressing, going, wiping, dressing, flushing, and hand-washing. Remember to reinforce your child&#39;s success at each step.
	</li>
	<li>
	There are many steps to the toilet training process. The more ready the child is when you begin, the more quickly the toilet training process will go.
	</li>
	<li>
	Initial success relies on your child understanding the use of the toilet, not mastering the process.
	</li>
	<li>
	Check your child&#39;s stools. It is very important that they are soft. Hard stools can be very painful and are difficult to pass. If your child&#39;s stools are hard, add fiber to your child&#39;s diet and consult your health care provider for a recommended stool-softener. When the stool is softer, reassure your child that now it won&#39;t hurt.
	</li>
	<li>
	A high-fiber diet and reduced quantity of dairy products can help soften the stool and develop and maintain regular bowel movements. Because children can resist being forced to eat nutritious foods, and because they learn best by example, eating a high-fiber balanced diet yourself will encourage your child to eat well.
	</li>
</ul>

<h3>What To Do</h3>

<ul>
	<li>
	Get a potty chair. Many children feel more secure on a potty chair than on a toilet because when they sit, their feet are securely on the floor and they are not afraid of falling off or in.
	</li>
	<li>
	Allow your child to become familiar with the potty chair. Let your child observe, touch, and get comfortable with the potty chair before attempting to use it. Also, introduce the potty chair to your child as his or her own chair.
	</li>
	<li>
	Place the potty chair in a convenient place for your child. The potty chair does not have to be limited to the bathroom. Keep it in the playroom, in the yard, or wherever your child is playing, so your child can get to it when he or she wants.
	</li>
	<li>
	If your child is afraid of the potty chair, don&#39;t pressure him or her to use it. Put toilet training aside for 1 or 2 months, and give your child time to get used to the idea of the potty chair and to be comfortable with it.
	</li>
	<li>
	Let your child first sit on the potty chair fully clothed once a day as a routine. Also, let your child leave the potty chair at any time, and never force your child to spend time sitting on it.
	</li>
	<li>
	After your child is comfortable sitting on the potty chair with clothes on, let him or her sit there without clothes.
	</li>
	<li>
	Take the stool from your child&#39;s <a href="https://mylofamily.com/category/reusable-cloth-diapers-5433">cloth diaper</a> and put it into his or her potty chair so that your child can see where it should go.
	</li>
</ul>

<h2>HELPFUL TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS</h2>

<h3>Setbacks</h3>

Setbacks are to be expected, not to be seen as a failure or regression, but as a temporary step back. Setbacks are normal and may occur when your child feels too much pressure.

Setbacks can be frustrating, but your child needs encouragement and reassurance from you. Try to remember that this is your child&#39;s task, not your own.

<h3>Coordinating Plans</h3>

Make sure to coordinate your toilet training plans with others who may be with your child during the day (caregivers, grandparents, day care staff members). It is important that they know how you want your child to be trained so that the child receives the same message during the day when you are not present as during evenings and weekends when you are.

<h3>Parental Encouragement</h3>

Make this experience as positive, natural, and nonthreatening as possible so that your child feels confident that he or she is doing it on his or her own. Often, what seems like laziness in your child is resistance to pressure or immaturity. Your child is likely to want to be trained as much as you want him or her to be trained.

<ul>
	<li>
	Encourage imitation. When you sit on the toilet, allow your child to sit on the potty chair beside you.
	</li>
	<li>
	Boys should learn to urinate sitting first, because if they stand first, they may not want to sit to have a bowel movement.
	</li>
	<li>
	Start a routine with regular reminders beginning with one time a day&mdash;after breakfast or maybe at bath time when your child is already undressed.
	</li>
	<li>
	Watch for behavior, grimaces, or poses that may signal the need for a bowel movement, and ask your child if he or she needs to go.
	</li>
	<li>
	Praise your child whenever he or she tells you that he/she needs to go and when your child tells you without being reminded.
	</li>
	<li>
	Let your child flush if he or she wants to. Because some children do not like the sound of the toilet or are afraid of the toilet, be sure to determine whether your child is scared. Also, try to reassure your child if he or she becomes upset about the disappearance of the stool down the toilet.
	</li>
</ul>

<h3>Clothing/Diapers</h3>

Keep your child in loose, easy-to-remove clothing. Help your child master the dressing and undressing needed to sit on the potty chair. Once the child is comfortably sitting on the potty chair with clothes on, then try it with clothes off.

When your child is using the potty chair successfully several times a day, he or she may be ready for underwear for part of the day. Because diapers can be very reassuring, do not rush your child out of diapers.

Your child&#39;s skin is just as likely to get a rash from wetness or exposure to a stool as it did during infancy. Therefore, keeping your child dry and clean is as important during training as it was when he or she was an infant. Change your child regularly, and do not leave him or her in soiled clothing as a training method.

Disposable or nondisposable training pants may be used as part of the transition from diaper to underwear, but they are not recommended as an initial step. They may be helpful when your child is ready to take over the training process.

<h3>Specific Training Issues</h3>

<ul>
	<li>
	Accidents are common and should be expected in the training process.
	</li>
	<li>
	Boys generally take longer to be trained than do girls.
	</li>
	<li>
	If you feel you need help in the training process, contact your pediatrician or health care professional to discuss any issues you may have.
	</li>
</ul>

<h3>Night-time Training</h3>

Nighttime or naptime dryness may occur at the same time as daytime dryness, although it may not occur until a year or so later. Aside from taking your child to the toilet before going to sleep, here are some other tips to help the child stay dry through the night:

<ul>
	<li>
	Ask your child to withhold urine a little during the day to gain better control.
	</li>
	<li>
	With your child&#39;s permission, wake him or her during the night to use the bathroom.
	</li>
	<li>
	A nighttime potty chair kept by the bed can make it more convenient for your child when he or she wakes during the night.
	</li>
	<li>
	If your child is still consistently wetting the bed 1 year after age 7 years, consult your pediatrician or health care professional.
	</li>
</ul>

With being a parent comes a dozen responsibilities! Responsibilities you just can&#39;t ignore. One such responsibility is to toilet-train your baby. So, what is toilet training? Well, quite simply, it is just getting the idea of a toilet introduced to your baby. Stop! Did you think this means that your baby will not just walk into the loo and pee-poop themselves? No! Not at all! It just means that you need to take your baby to the washroom now every time they want to pee or poop!

There is no real milestone for when your baby is ready to be toilet trained. Babies aren&#39;t ready before 12 months to be toilet trained since their bowel and bladder movements are not in their control.

Some kids show signs of getting toilet trained between 18 to 24 months, while some may take up to 3 years. It is entirely normal, and there is no need to stress about it.

<h2>When should you start toilet training your baby? </h2>

There is no set pattern or timeline for it. Some parents start as early as when the baby is a month old. They watch for signs of the baby&#39;s pee and poop and run to the bathroom to get their baby done with pee or poop.

However, the ideal age to start toilet training your baby is when your baby is 8 or 9 months old. At this point, your baby&#39;s pee and poop cycle will be a lot more organized because, by this time, your baby would have started solid food. A breastfeeding baby and a baby on solid food will have different pee and poop cycle because a baby who is exclusively on breast milk will pee around 8-12 times a day and can poop either once a week or even many times a day! Hence, it&#39;s best to start toilet training your baby when used to solid foods

<h2>How should your toilet train your baby? </h2>

Well, here are a few things you can follow to toilet train your baby:

<ol>
	<li>
	Use sounds your baby can associate with pee and poop. Many parents use the sound &quot;ssssss,&quot; and that&#39;s when the baby automatically understands that they need to pee or poop.
	</li>
</ol>

<ol>
	<li>
	Schedule potty trips at regular intervals of time. Like, maybe every 45 minutes to one hour.
	</li>
</ol>

<ol>
	<li>
	You can use a potty chair on the toilet for your baby to be comfortable during his pee and poop sessions.
	</li>
</ol>

<ol>
	<li>
	As soon as you notice any signs of poop or pee, take your baby and run to the toilet soon!
	</li>
</ol>

<ol>
	<li>
	Get them used to after-toilet rituals. Teach them to wash and wipe their genitals to eliminate the chances of germs in their genitals. Handwash after pee and poop is a must!
	</li>
</ol>

<ol>
	<li>
	Once you see success in toilet training for 2-3 weeks, it is time to say goodbye to diapers!
	</li>
</ol>

Once you have crossed the hurdle of potty training your baby, you can probably relax for a while until your toddler starts showing signs that they are ready to take the next leap, that is, do poop and pee the adult way! Even if your child does not show signs, it becomes important for you to transition your toddler from potty to toilet as they grow a little older. This is because they have a preschool to attend, traveling and running errands becomes easier, and of course, your job of cleaning the mess reduces! 

So, what are the signs that your child is ready to transition from potty to toilet?

<h2 style="text-align:justify">Signs of Readiness for Toilet Training</h2>

Here are some signs that your toddler may show when they&#39;re ready to transition from potty to toilet:

<ul>
	<li>Can use the potty at the same time every day</li>
	<li style="text-align: justify;">Can pull down their pants or undress by themselves</li>
	<li style="text-align: justify;">Can climb the steps to the potty seat</li>
	<li style="text-align: justify;">Can walk on their own</li>
	<li style="text-align: justify;">Can sit down in the same position quietly for 2-5 minutes </li>
</ul>

These are signs of readiness that indicate your child might be physically ready to graduate from potty to toilet. But being physically prepared is only the first part: overcoming the emotional hurdle is the real challenge.

<h2 style="text-align:justify">How to help your toddler transition from potty to toilet?</h2>

So, how exactly should you teach your baby to ditch their favorite potty seat and move to the toilet? Here are a few steps to help you from the beginning until the end: 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">1. Take it slow </h3>

You don&#39;t have to master the transition in a day. Take it slow and wait for your baby to pick up. If your child is habituated to using the potty seat in spaces other than bathrooms, you need to take this process to the bathroom first. Once your baby is used to using the potty chair in the bathroom, you can slowly start teaching them how to sit and use the toilet seat. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">2. If you don&#39;t show, how will they know? </h3>

Toilet training becomes easier when you come out as an example to your kids. Teach both girls and boys to use the toilet in a sitting fashion. Show them how to remove their pants, sit on the seat, wipe, flush, and then wash their hands. After mastering how to defecate sitting down, boys can learn how to pee standing up. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">3. Follow a routine</h3>

Sit your toddler on the toilet at the same time every day, such as after dinner or before bed. The routine of going to the toilet at the proper time will aid them even if they don&#39;t go. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">4. Read toilet-training books </h3>

There are many books available that talk about how interesting characters pee and poop! Learning through fun and books has a better impact on children. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">5. Let your toddler decide</h3>

Let your toddler determine when they are ready to graduate from potty chair to toilet. Allowing your toddler to pick between the potty chair and the big toilet is a terrific approach to offer them more control over their potty training. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">6. Make the toilet kid-friendly</h3>

Your toddler may struggle to use the toilet since it is often larger and higher than the potty seat they are used to. Get a step stool to put in front of the toilet. This will make it easier for your baby to get on the potty. 

<h3 style="text-align:justify">7. Reward them </h3>

Toilet training can be difficult for toddlers. Support, affection, and stickers can help children make the huge jump to using a grown-up toilet. A toilet training chart can help. Give them a sticker for every potty visit. If they have older siblings, encourage them to congratulate their younger siblings whenever they use the bathroom.

As a parent, the journey of caring for your little one is filled with numerous choices, and one of the most fundamental decisions revolves around choosing the perfect diaper.

<h2>Which diaper is best for baby? </h2>

Choosing the right diaper involves considering a multitude of factors. Here&#39;s a comprehensive list of features that distinguish the best diaper for newborn baby:

A gentle touch is paramount when it comes to your baby&#39;s delicate skin. Look for diapers made from soft materials to minimize the risk of irritation.

Diapers that are appropriately sized and provide a snug fit are essential for preventing leaks and ensuring your baby&#39;s comfort.

<h3>4. Wetness Indicator</h3>

Many modern diapers come equipped with a wetness indicator, a convenient feature that changes color when the diaper is wet. This visual cue makes it easier for parents to know when it&#39;s time for a change.

Opt for diapers made from hypoallergenic materials to reduce the likelihood of skin irritations and allergic reactions.

Ensure the diaper allows proper air circulation to prevent diaper rash and keep your baby&#39;s skin healthy.
