8 points to be remembered while toilet training your child..

Toilet training should never be enforced; it is a gradual process, and develops as the child matures. Being a new mom, we always want our child to learn everything quickly, be it potty training or anything else. I can never forget my early days of motherhood as soon as I used to change his nappies, he used to poo again. Ha-ha, I used to feed him again feeling he is hungry. I used to spend whole day only feeding and cleaning my son. Later I bought a nice potty seat from Mother care keeping in mind all his comforts, used to keep his favourite books so that he enjoys going to bathroom. I truly remember how my Mother in law used to narrate a story from Baby T.V, teaching him all the shapes. When I see six years back, those were the best days in my life. We really need to be patient in every phase of life. Once you have excelled on potty training, there are some key things a mom needs to remember:-

·       Praise: - Congratulate your toddler whenever he or she manages to poo in the potty.

·       Reminders: - Your toddler can’t wait for long, so keep asking if he or she needs to go for potty.

·       Make it easy: - Keep the potty seat where your child can find it. If your home has bathrooms on different floors, you need to place potty seats in each one. Dress your child in clothes that are quick to pull off- such as trousers instead of dungarees.

·       Give privacy: - If your toddler wants to take his potty seat in a corner, that’s fine. We need to give them privacy.

·       Hygiene: - Training your child to wash their hands before and after going to the washroom.

·       Take it slowly: - Wait until your child is dry during the day before you try to tackle the nights. Please Take a break if the child becomes anxious, and go back to nappies for a few weeks.

·       Be Consistent: - Once you’ve started potty training, keep going until your child is used to that routine. Don’t let the child use nappies one day and the potty next, or go back to nappies because you are going to stay with friends or going out for a day.

·       Be patient: - The entire process is to be taught with a lot of patience, love and affection, but at a proper age. Clean up the inevitable accidents without much comments – “Never mind, next time you can do it in the potty” is enough.

    So train your child with love and  always remember "No forcing, No fussing", be natural for a very natural happening.
