He's 23 months and he's starting to go on the toilet (he never adapted to the potty chair very well) and I'm putting underwear on him instead of diapers. How often should I sit him on the toilet and for how long and how often should I expect him to wee/poo in his underwear? He is my first baby, so I'm a little lost! Help?!

  1. I trained my little one to go on the regular toilet so as not to mess with cleaning a nasty little potty chair, and he did quite well. Just make sure you have a stool for him so he can easily get to the potty himself. I will warn you that when starting that young it can be quite a lengthy process. I started putting my boy on the potty at that age as well, and it wasn't until he was about 32 months that he could do the entire process all by himself. Expect him to have a lot of accidents. On the other hand, you could keep him in diapers until he has mastered it. That's what I did with my son, so I wouldn't have so many messes to clean up. We worked on it with him, but he still wore diapers until he was 32 months.


  2. first take him to the toilet every 1/2 hour. once you get into the routine even you will get an idea how often he pees. you could visit http://www.learning-graph.com/teachingdi... for tips on potty training.

  3. every 20-25 minutes for 5-10 minutes

    also 10 minutes after each meal....

  4. you  should   sit  him  on    toilet   every 10  or 30 Min's  and    he  might    have    a  couple  of  accidents  every once  in  a  while   when  he does  go  potty  on  the   toilet    reward     him  keep  a     potty   chart in  the   washroom  and   everytime  he   goes potty  reward  him  with a  sticker and   keep  a   jar of   m&m's  in  the   washroom   and  everytime    he  goes  potty  on  the     toilet he'll    get  a sticker  on    the  potty chart and  he'll   also   get  to   pick four   m&ms
