⁣Well you’re in luck! I’ve teamed up with these Super Moms to share our Best Potty Training tips and tricks in the Ultimate Potty Training Guide:⁣

Tip #1 "Having two in diapers isn’t fun so we have been open with potty training Henry early. We noticed Henry observing when we would use the restroom. He loves to put toilet paper in the toilet and flush. His interest has grown more and more, which is a sign to start potty training! Over the last month we put out a small toilet for Henry to see and sit on. Every day he sits on the toilet with and without a diaper. This is just so he gets used to sitting for a period of time. Also, Henry tells us when he goes in his diaper and needs to be changed. This is great as he is aware of what’s going on in the diaper! It’s really good to start talking about going to the potty with your kiddo as early as they show interest. I will keep you all posted on Henry’s potty training journey, so stay tuned!" @samanthafaevanderpool⁣

Tip #2

"*Frequent Trips*⁣ To ensure Potty Training Success it’s important to give your child the opportunities to succeed with frequent trips to the bathroom.⁣ We basically make a point to try the potty before and after we do something:⁣ • First thing in the morning⁣ • Before and after meals⁣ • Before and after car trips⁣ • Start and finish of being in a store⁣ • Before and after TV time⁣ • Before and after bath time⁣ And don’t forget throughout play time!" @carolinebgeraghty

Tip #3

"First get used to the word POTTY.. I find myself talking to grown adults saying or asking where’s the potty. EVERY little one is different when it comes to potty training! Some things might have worked before but won’t work with your next little one. That’s exactly how it’s gone with my girls. With my oldest daughter I got super lucky! She was potty trained before her 2nd birthday. It just came so easy for both of us. So I really thought my second daughter was ready and showing signs around 2 as well, but I was wrong.

Karter, my stubborn, bright, dances to her own beat 3 year took much longer to get where we are! I introduced the potty around the same time as my oldest, but she didn’t care lol. I didn’t pressure her so waited months to reintroduce it. Still was not her thing. Finally before I had my third I was like ok we need to get more serious and tried the same things that worked for my oldest.

Guess what.. it did not work for her! I had to keep her absolutely naked because she’d just peed her pants and underwear. I had to remind her to go more than my oldest or she’d say “I’m fine” and then rush to the potty. Totally reminded me and still does of the Nina Needs To Go on Disney Jr. Karter also prefers the actual potty then that little potty seat. We are also still working on her not wetting the bed through the night!" @avarycooke ⁣

Tip #4

"My tip is Don’t Rush It!! I rushed it with my oldest and started trying around 18 months, she did pretty well but her school was NOT READY. We were both frustrated she could wear panties at home but had to wear pull-ups to school. My youngest (currently 2.5) is showing zero interest and with Mardi Gras around the corner, I’m not pushing it! Potty training and parading do not mix!" @raisingnolagirls⁣

Tip #5

"It is easier to let your toddler use a potty seat on the adult toilet, since they see you use it and will already want to mimic you. Plus, there’s no need to transition from potty to adult toilet later on." @teenalareina⁣

Tip #6

"If you've lived through potty training, you probably feel like super mom! 💪🏻 And if you haven't had the "pleasure" of experiencing it yet, well, let's just say I wouldn't judge you if you said you were scared to start . ⁠ My number one piece of advice (after potty training 3 of my own kids) is to wait until YOUR child is ready! Don't start potty training based on when other kids your child's age are doing it, or when you THINK she should be doing it. Watch for the cues and signs that your toddler might be ready, and then, once you're both on board, jump in with both feet! ⁠ ⁠ Feel like your child is just about there, but not quite? Talk it up! Casually bring it up whenever you can and plant that little seed in her mind, or even just try the potty out now and then and make it something fun--she will get there, I promise!⁠ ⁠ Fun new undies and a new book just for potty time can be helpful too!" @lyndsey.themamacoach⁣
