GO POTTY!! When to potty train??

the potty seats say 18 months on the box, but it wouldn't hurt to try. but if she isn't telling you before she has to go, chances are she won't be ready. give it a try, see if she goes. if she doesn't then put it away and try again later. it won't hurt to try as long as you don't push her.

When to potty train is really up to your child. If she is not liking her dirty diaper than this could be your go ahead to move her into the bathroom.

To start, everytime you go to the bathroom, take her with you. She needs to see what to do. Have her flush the toilet when done. I even told my daughter "wave good-bye to the potty". I explained to her that big girls do in the tiolet and say good-bye to it. This also shows here that you need to do this several times a day, not just once or twice.

Don't expect result over night. Potty training is never easy, but if she knows the sensation of having to go to the bathroom or if she is upset by a well used diaper, this is the first steps to using the toilet.

You might have instances where she is great for a few day then it's accident after accident. It's okay, just use positive renforcers such as praise, praise and more praise to keep her motivated.

My first daughter was the easiest, she was completely done at 16 months. The other 3 I really had to work at it. Just work at her pace and priase a lot. I wouldn't give treats for potty training because is sends the wrong message, but praise her heavly for her accomplishments.

Good luck to you!

there is really no set age,but i have noticed from my children and my friends children they are ready when they start taking off their diapers constantly.i have a 36 month old and 25 month old twins and my 36 month old boy is jsut lazy when it comes to the potty,he will pee in it,but afraid to poop.so i keep telling him big boys and daddy go poop on potty and then he will sit there for awhile and look at a book,but still wont go.you just have to be consistant every day.now my 25 month old girl,as soon as she gets up i take her diaper off and sit her on the porta potty and she will sit there watch tv and she will go pee and poop.and when shes done she gets a treat.but she wont do it every day but at least its a start.and her twin brother sits on the potty but hes not ready yet.he likes to keep getting off the potty.its not a easy chore,especially i have 3 on potty.but if they keep taking diapers off they are ready.
