Potty training a 2 yr old?

Question

i have a two yr old that i think should be potty trained.he takes off his diaper when he has to go pee but wont go on the toilet what should i do? and the worst thing is he goes p**p on the floor too!!! can anybody give me advice on how to potty train him? i need help im a young mother and its my first time potty training. HELP!!!!!!

Answer 1

Try Cheerios in the toilet, its a fun way to teach them to aim, I know I hear stories of when I was learning I'd grab a handful and sprint into the bathroom when ever I had to go, as for the p**p on the floor, your on your own =P

Answer 2

Tie him down to it and say "****, **** d**n YOU!"

Answer 3

Consistancy is the most important thing. If you are switching between diapers and underwear, STOP! If you are going to potty train, you need to do that and only that..putting them in both will confuse him. My oldest daughter would sit on her potty infront of the tv for hours. She'd get up and go p**p on the floor right next to her potty. She was confused and scared of her p**p. It took a couple of days, but I never gave up. The best way to do it is to devote yourself to potty training for a weekend. STAY HOME!  If you child likes to watch TV, put him infront of it and make him sit on his potty till he goes. If he is stubborn, it could take him 8 hours to go!  Good Luck, MOM!

Boys are harder to train than girls. that is a fact[ive trained 2]. 2 is kind of young to start training a boy, have u got him his own potty? they like having their own they feel special. im training my 2 yr old daughter right now, she does the same thing[ takes her diaper off]  i have to keep pants or shorts on her to stop her, i also give her 2 m&ms every time she goes on the potty, & we make a big deal of it they love to be praised, makes them feel proud of what they did. one other thing u should never scold him for having an accidant just explain to him that next time he s going to try harder to make it to the potty. good luck & have lots of patience

Answer 5

Two options

get one of those porter pottys for potty training and put it where he likes to go and gradually move it to the bathroom

AND only reward the good behavior, find something he really likes and wants, but he only gets it when he goes in the potty or "right place" (cookie, toy, movie, etc)

the second option you have is figure his schedule and put him on the toilet and dont let him up til he goes, then reward the behavior

ignore the bad behavior, he probably wants some attention, even if negative, just put him in his room, clean it up, and continue your day and try again

they potty train on their own time, but if he knows to take off diaper to go, he is ready and understands he has to go and not to go in diaper, just needs to figure out where

good luck

Answer 6

good luck with that. i have been potty training my girl for two years now, and still no luck. like you i'm a start time mom. i have read and tried anything. i have a little potty and a sit that goes on the toilet. i have even set my clock for every 30 minutes. and still no luck. maybe you can try this. and it will help you out. i talked to her doctor about it. her doctor say that she will pick it up when she is really. my mom said with boys you have to make it fun i don't know where you live but maybe you can try taking him outside . good luck

Answer 7

for the pee... cheerios in the toilet....

of course... a two year old should be on a training potty still... so watch him and when he is about to take his diaper off, grab him and set him on the potty... for standing pee, you need to bring in a friend that can should him the correct technique... how close to stand and how to aim his p***s so the urine will go in the toilet... u know hes ready because if he takes off his diaper before he goes, that means he knows when he has to and also means that he hates having a dirty diaper on...
