Potty Training In One Weekend

Parents often wonder if or when they will be ready for potty training. There is no magical age as each one will start to use the potty when they are ready. On average potty training boys starts around age 18 months up to 3 years. In some cases boys potty train closer to age 4. Again this is okay and quite common. Potty training girls is around 18 months to 24 months though they can start around age 3 as well. Many things can influence a child to begin potty training. Watching mommy and daddy use the potty, getting the undesirable feeling of a soiled diaper and wanting to pull it off, heading to the potty when the sensation is there to go, watching a sibling use the potty, and curiosity about the potty to name a few. Some parents do have to nudge their child to get them going and this okay.

I encourage parents to make potty training a wonderful and exciting time. It is a great opportunity to strengthen the bond as well. Parents must remember they are ultimately the "teachers" in potty training. Encourage, motivate and praise your child every step of the way.

For those who feel their child is showing signs of readiness it is possible to take one weekend to get their child successfully potty trained. For more information visit pottytrainingsite.com
