ANOTHER toilet training q?

So I went out and bought the potty that fits on your loo with the step. Anthony has no problem sitting on it and actually loves it and he is rewarded with lots of hugs and kisses and good boy for sitting on the potty etc etc. (don't want to use material rewards unless it as a last resort) My question is now how do I get him to do his buisiness or is he too young at nearly 18 months. He tells me when he has done poos and if you ask him he will say yes and grab his toosh so he knows what it is. How do I get him to tell me befor he does. By the way he is happy to poo with no nappy cos he did it in the garden the other day (YUK)

Thanks for all your help in advance and sorry this is so long

Re: ANOTHER toilet training q?

has your son peed or poo-ed on the toilet yet? If not, the first thing you need to show him is that he is supposed to do that there.  If he regularly poos at a certain time of day, sit him on the toilet for a few minutes. Or if he pees, do the same thing. One day, he will do his deed there and it'll start to click after a while.

Also, part of potty training is to ask if he needs to go and then sit him on the toilet are regular intervals. After a while of this, he'll know what he's supposed to do.

good luck

ahh ok i get it now! didn't get what you were on about before..... stupid becca! ok...look for signs pre poo! things like squating, wincing, farts, a noise he makes, things like that then run him to the toilet before he does it. stand outside the loo with the door open and copy his sign (except the farts) eventually (note: you will look like a doofus) he will get it. worked for logan. ::)'s

He has watched me go to the toilet (for eitherreason) for about 9 months, and he has seen what I do. He did the cutest thing where he garbbed some loo paper wiped his own bum and dropped it in the toilet. So no probs there it just getiing him to do it. Will give it ago and look like a realy big doofus just picture me there squatting "uuuughhh" *pushing* HEe Hee.

Re: ANOTHER toilet training q?

I know there is probably heaps of advice on this in the advice section..... but I would like to share our little epic LOL. I found that we had to have a potty on the ground too as Dearest would have select favorites. We found that offering  the recepticle after snooze, meals etc was a good start also just before a bath while the water is running. Bear in mind there more than likely will be accidents, remaining positive is a really important factor. All kids have a different level of impulse trigger this is why they are trained at different paces. There can also be relapses even 12 months after training...... Best tip I can give is keep being positive and try really hard not to over emphasize the negative. They all conquer this mile stone in their own sweet little time  LOL

Good Luck

Best Wishes
