What age is good fot potty training?

Depends on the child: Most kids get interested in the potty around 18 mo. & train by 2 yrs. If their parents start taking them along every time the parents use the toilet. Put the kiddy potty on the bathroom floor so that your child can sit on it while you use the regular one. Start your child with clothes on;after a few days, go to just diaper, then, when your child's ready, to bare-bottom. Lots of praise & rewards help!

As early as 18m: Each child is different. Some toddlers show signs as early as 18m. They will let you know they are wet and bring you a diaper. Or they have a bowel movement at the same time each day. Bring a potty chair out to have the child become familiar with it, make it fun and rewarding for the child. Lots of praise and encouragement helps. If your 18m old has good verbal skills you can start.

They train selves: Many parents + grandparents believe they can + do potty train their kids. Not true. U can't teach a 2 or 3-year-old to relax their their urinary sphincter so that the bladder can reflexly contract?. U can give them a potty + demonstrate how it's done. Never say "push it out" when child is on potty because child will contract their urinary sphincter + force out urine. Not good, just safely say shhh.

A toddler who walks: from room to room, pulls his/her pants & pull-up or underpants up & down & says " pee-pee", "poo-poo" or "potty" to indicate he senses the urge to "go" is ready for daytime toilet training. If not, you may create a behavior problem . There's no harm in putting a potty chair in the bathroom for the child to sit on while you model using the toilet, but don't force the child to sit on it.
