      @@allisonmerino2924 sorry I missed this one. I don’t recommend or use elimination communication. If parents want to do it then that is great. Elimination communication is essentially toilet timing. When I refer to toilet training I mean the child should indicate and go to the toilet independently. I do find waiting until the child is older means that the toilet training process can be done within a few days.

    I thank God this video showed up on my feed. Oh wow. My 2-year-old was doing pretty well, telling me he needs to pee. All of a sudden he stopped and now pees in his diapers. I now realized what was wrong. One day he had a very bad accident and I yelled at him so bad. Even though I apologized to him, I now realized I got him scared. The other mistake is asking him if he needs to pee. Like the video says, his response is always no, even though he clearly needs to go. This momma has learned her lesson. Thank you

      Same here! My 18mo was telling me he needed to pee and was doing very well. All of a sudden he started to have accidents and stopped telling me he had to pee. I realized that I was getting visibly frustrated at him when he would have an accident, mostly due to the lack of sleep since I also have a newborn. Not his fault, that's totally my problem. Today I really made sure not to get overly frustrated and thankfully he is back at telling me he wants to pee.
      I wasnt sure though that this was the problem until I watched this video. So glad it got recommended.

      @TheGodinezFamilyy most children will outgrow werting the bed max before they’re 18, however there is a 1% who continue into adulthood.
      Unfortunately I am one of those adults. I am 29 a mother of 2 and I suffer nocturnal enuresis aka bed wetting at night mostly (extremely rarely during the day).
      You can take your child to the doctor to see if there is nothing wrong and if not, start sleep and bladder training.
      Unfortunately nothing has worked for me so I just wear a diaper at night time. 😁

    I started potty training my son on a Thursday, he was fully potty trained by Saturday. It has now been a month and he has only had one accident in the past three weeks. I’m so proud of him. Just letting him be naked, talking to him about being a big boy going on the toilet, constant praise and ignoring the accidents, worked for him.
    The only issue I have now is that he has figured out he can get out of a non preferred task by saying he needs to use the restroom. Oh well, I have 2nd graders that do this too. He will learn.

      I let my daughter run around half naked and she gets it and hasn’t had any mistakes BUT she rarely asks to go so when we are out she doesn’t ask and I just guess and take her or she’ll have an accident. When I put underwear on her she treats it like a pull up and pees in it and still rarely asks. It’s very frustrating when you think they got it and you have to keep starting over

    The pooing is such a big thing. I'm a foster carer and child protection sends me the really hard kids. These kids often have continence issues. Had a 8 year old who wet his pants all the time and a 9 year old who would only poo in his pants. 9 year is state champion cross country runner and in the talented and gifted program. Both clever kids so no intellectual issues to get in the way.
    First kid I got the doctor to x-ray him and he was chronically constipated. Cleared the blockage and now he only wets the bed.
    Second we cleared his constipation but he still wouldn't sit on the toilet or even squat outside. Would only use his pants. I rewarded him for wearing a nappy after dinner and then praised him for pooing in his nappy. After 6 months of getting praise for pooing his nappy he would happily do it while talking to me rather than hiding. He wasn't scared of his accidents any more. We then got him to do it in one spot that we marked with a dot. Over 4 months we moved that dot slowly down the house till it was in the bathroom. Final step was getting him to poo in his nappy on the toilet, then slowly with a looser and looser nappy. Took a year but he now goes in the toilet with no issues. Had his first sleepover two weeks ago.
    So yeah... Follow those tips or you can spend a year cheering a 9/10 year old for pooping in his nappy.

      @@JessicaWells1 For us that was a quick part. I was going to have a plastic garden chair with a hole cut out so he could poo in his nappy comfortably while sitting next to the toilet. But he pretty much went straight from pooping while standing next to the toilet while chatting, to me to sitting on the toilet in his nappy.
      Because he was 10 he didn't have any real fear or discomfort from sitting on the toilet.
      Another idea if it's a younger kid who is scared is to sit on the toilet lid. Even if they aren't able to poo while sitting on something solid maybe they can play some fun game while there.

I made sure not to make any of those six mistakes. Today is day 3 and he has been dry all day and has used the potty with delight. This experience has been quite lovely although it is time consuming because I try to keep my eye on him. I've watched a lot of other RUclips videos and I'm so grateful that I didn't put him on the potty every 15 minutes or so. This has been so much more successful

    Make potty training part of family routine. As a older 68 year old I've had to go back to bladder training and realize that it should just be part of our daily routine. All of us should empty our bladder before we leave the house, before nap and bed times and first thing in the morning. I just always made it a family then, "Every one empty your bladder". I now have had to start again making it a point of toilet routine, I do try to empty my bladder on every hour since I've lost the control factor. This was a great toilet training vlog.

    I'm about to start potty training my 4th child (she's 1) and honestly the best advice I've gotten in a loooong time is to start EARLY. I mean before age 1. No pressure, just sit them on the potty first thing in the morning, and a couple times throughout the day to get them used to the act.
    I NEVER used pullups.....I always thought they were way too expensive and didn't really accomplish what they're made to do. I just let my kids run around the house (just underware on, sometimes bare butt) and yeah- accidents happened! But don't freak out....its how they LEARN.

      @@YouAreLoooved It's more about a routine, just think about when you go potty, it's pretty normal to say most people have to go first thing in the morning. Even though they don't speak, they can still understand! seeing you go to the bathroom helps too

      thanks for sharing these great tips. my daughter's Day Care was very supportive in helping to potty train my daughter at about 26 months. she had shown interest in the toilet, and I took her with me whenever I used the restroom. she also helped pick out Big Girl
      panties to wear, and didn't want them to be soiled. taking her to the toilet rather than Asking was also helpful.

    You are giving very good advice, I find all your points to be true.
    However, I have not found it to be necessary to potty train two of my sons. There was a time when they were just ready, and they knew that they have to go to the toilet. Then motivation was key
    My firstborn son got motivated by his same age friend and neighbor. Within 2 days, he didn't need a diaper in the day or night.
    My second one was trickier. I got him to use the toilet by forbidding him to do so. He loves doing the opposite of what he's told.
    Now my 3rd son is the trickiest and I will try your advices on him.

I personally gave up in my mind that this challenge I will definitely fail cause my daughter was retaining both her poops n pee when I removed her diaper. Thank God.

    I know that this is kinda an old video, but I can see why parents would do these and how they could backfire! Our LO is going on 3, so we started potty training him on Saturday using that "3-day" method. Today is Wednesday, and both times that he went pee so far today, it was on the potty. None on the floor. However, he pooped in his underwear 😆 he is still a bit unsure about the potty, and I'm finding out that it's better to get him to the bathroom only when he starts doing his Irish jig with his legs! Taking him to the bathroom and trying to force him to sit on the potty only backfired on me on Monday. Oh well. I'm still learning too!

    • @EmmaHubbard
      @EmmaHubbard  2 года назад

      Toileting regressions tend to happen if there has been a significant stress or change in your child's life. These tend to resolve over time, if the stressor has been identified and addressed. If it is constant soiling then you might want to ensure your little one isn't constipated, as this can lead to pain on using the toilet and further regression.

She developed the habit of hiding under the table if she needed to go. I find poopind in the diaper when they are a certain age super gross. Shes almost trained just not at night and she just turned 3. It took her about a year though to get fully trained
