FAQ
1. At what age should I start to potty train my child?
You can actually start to potty train your child as soon as you start reading and singing to your child. If you start at 3 days or 3 months, just include a few potty training options with your selections.
2. What type of potty should I use?
There are many pottys on the market and the most important part is will your child sit on it. A clown potty is cute, but probably not a good idea for a child petrified of clowns.
3. What are the 3 easy steps?
The steps are Prep, Shop, and Train.
4. How long will it take me to potty train my child?
Q. My Child is 4 years old and getting ready to start preschool.
1 week - 3 months
Q. My child is over a year old and training is starting to become a topic of discussion.
3 months - 18 months
Q. My child is a baby and I have plenty of time to train
18 months - 2 years
5. Are boys harder to train than girls?
No. Each child is different and whatever prep ideas you select for your child will help reinforce the lessons needed.
6. I have started using another technique, will it confuse my child if I start with Potty Schmotty now?
It won't be a problem. The Potty Schmotty technique allows for layering. Use what you have done in the past as a stepping stone and continue with Potty Schmotty to complete the foundation.
7. Help!!!! I am feeling overwhelmed.
Once a month we hold a conference call. Feel free to stop by and and get some extra support.
8. What is the best type of underwear to use?
Any pair your child can pull up and down by themselves. Design preference is all about your child.
9. Should we use pull ups?
Some families use them for nap time and bedtime until they are certain a child will wake up dry. If your child is purposely wetting the pull ups-stop using them immediately.
10. I successfully potty trained my child and now she is acting like I taught her nothing. What am I doing wrong?
You haven't done anything wrong. Regression is often a sign of stress in your child. Look for major changes in your child's life: new school, a move, a new pet or sibling. Sometimes it can be as small as moving to a new bed. These are major changes for a child. Show patience and use the training techniques you have already successfully mastered.
