What is the best way to potty train a girl?
I’m looking for helpful tips to give my friends on how to potty train a girl. I gave all of my suggestions but they are not working. Do you have any suggestions? Maybe I missed a suggestion.
You can’t force potty training. Both of my boys were almost 4 when they finally got potty trained, my daughter however was 22 months. I think the only reason she got potty trained is because she is highly competitive and she wanted to beat her older brother…she did. You shouldn’t even think about potty training until the child is dry all night. My daughter would get up in the morning and run for the potty. If the child is dry in the morning and they seem to be aware of when they are “going potty” then it’s time to start. Have a little potty for her to sit on, put her on it every hour till she goes…make sure that when she does go that she gets praised a lot, remember that positive re-enforcement is the best for kids. Above all else if she’s not ready nothing you do will work, she has to be willing and ready to go.
I am far from sure the best way to potty train my child. She is 22 months and I really need to train her because I cannot afford diapers. I know that is the wrong reason but I am being honest we literally have 5 diapers left and when they are gone I have no clue where I will obtain funds to but diapers. Which is the reason I am seeking the quickest way to train her any answers please email me at shundahamer@live.com. HELP
Take them into the room when you go so they know what it is about. Then WATCH them for signs that they need to go. They get that look on their face or go to a special place. Had a grand child and I could tell when they were ready to go and I help them to the bathroom and let them flush afterwards.
Both girls and boys will eventually get potty trained, but some of them certainly take their time.
I’m sure you’ve already covered the important things:
- make being on the potty seem a fun experience -praise the child lots, every time things go right, or almost right -have the potty easily available, so you can zoop it under her bottom at the first sign
and then, just patience, patience. I’ve never seen a teenager or young adult who was still in diapers.
I think the problem a lot of parents make is rushing potty training. If you wait until the child is ready than it will go much easier. Many parents see early success at potty training as a positive reflection on their child’s intelligence or their skill at parenting so they rush it. When I hear parents bragging about their child being potty trained before 18 months I wonder if they did this for the child or for themselves.
The child should have control and awareness of their voiding before parents start. Is the child’s diaper dry and clean in the morning? Is the child aware when they need to go or have a wet or dirty diaper? These are signs the child is ready but there is no prize for doing this sooner rather than later.
