Toilet Training

This is what I shared with another mummy regarding toilet training my boy:

When he was around 18mths, he can speak in proper sentences and is able to verbalise his needs. So we decided to give toilet training a chance again. My maid will make him sit on the toilet bowl when he wakes up every morning to poop and pee.

At first he refused to poop, only pee. But my maid continued and soon he poop in the toilet bowl. Then we decided to not let him wear diapers at home to train him. Every 15minutes we ask if he wants to pee/poop. Usually he'll say 'no', if he does not answer us, it means yes!

Continue perservering and now he is 29mths old, he goes diaper-free at home. He'll tell us when he wants to pee/poop. Sometimes when we are busy, he'll even go to the toilet himself, pull down his pants/undies and pee, then he'll wear back his undies and pants and wash his hands with soap (oh my, i just typed soup cause I'm watching a show and they are drinking soup!).

If you want your boy to be able to poop without his diapers, you need to perservere :) Put him on the toilet bowl at the timing that he normally poops everyday.

Btw, my son hates potties. He only wants the real toilet bowl without child seat!

Btw, be prepared for 'accidents'. For now my boy onli wear diapers when we go out (in case cant find toilet) and when he sleeps at night. Day time when he sleep we use a pee pad placed under him :)

So far my boy onli had 3 accidents. Considered little from what my cousin tell me, so it's good to wait till they can verbalise their needs.

I sent my boy to school once he turned 18mths. He's too active and I was worried my maid will go crazy having him at home the whole day!

And anyway I won't expect my maid to be able to teach him, so sending him to school to learn is a better option. He learns alot from school (can be bad sometimes) and he learns to be more independant there.

They are the ones who suggested we toilet train my boy since he can talk and since he spends the day there, they started off with him and we just continue to support at home :)

CC cos i got no time to ferry him to playgroup. & the price of the playgroup (250 per mth) is almost the same as the CC (288 per mth).

But we send him in quite late (ard 9+am) and pick him up quite early (sometimes 3+ i'll go pick him up, sometimes 5pm my mum pick him up).

Ting, my son's CC teachers and principal told us if wanna toilet train, dun use diapers at all else they'll be confused. So day time we totally dun let him wear diapers, but gotta keep asking him (cos when they play they'll forget).

Must be patient. My boy initially also won't say. We just keep asking and asking and asking. When we bring him to pee successfully in the toilet, we'll praise him and remind him to tell us next time. And we teach him what to say exactly "mummy/daddy/auntie, I want to go toilet". it took him ard 1-2 weeks before he started telling us he wanna go toilet without us asking :)
