Hello!!!
rasanya dah lama tak menjengah blog nih
rinduuuuu!!!! jgn bersawang sudah la ya :)
oklah just nak update progress of my second child
Iman Aisyah is now diaper-less
hehehheheh...big yeay to momma (jimat duit pampers)
Iman will go to kindy next year
so, this is the best time to teach her pergi toilet
and no more diaper
here, i wanna share Potty Training tips from Babycenter
Try a timer
When my son Ben stopped using nappies, we used a timer to
help us both remember to use the potty. We started with every 45 minutes and,
as I could see he was needing to go less, gradually increased the time.
Eventually, he would tell me he needed to go before the timer went off, or say
he didn't need to when it did. Then we'd set the timer for another half an hour
and try again. -- Beth
Set up
target practice
We put a flushable item, such as confetti, in the toilet.
(You can also use shaving cream or coloured ice cubes.) The game for our son
was to aim and shoot. Rewards were based on accuracy. It was fun and
challenging, and did wonders for his precision! With poos, we told him the game
was to send in the backup troops (no pun intended) to finish the job with
torpedoes. I doubt this would work with girls, but Alex took less than a week
to be fully potty-trained. -- Roxanne A.
Make her
feel proud
With my daughter, I tried to give her lots and lots of
praise: 'What a big-girl thing to do!', 'You must be very proud of yourself',
'Do you want to call Granny to tell her?', 'Give me a high five!' and so on. --

Surprise,
surprise!
Our daughter wasn't very consistent with potty training until
we introduced the surprise bag. We got a load of inexpensive toys and stickers
and put them in a colourful gift bag. Every time she used the potty, we would
clap and let her pick one surprise out of the bag. We kept it up for about a
week and a half, and when the surprises ran out she just kept on using the
potty. We kept up the clapping and praise, and she quickly forgot the surprise
bag. I can honestly say that potty training was painless and quick, and I plan
to use this method again with my next child. -- Lottie
Put your
child in charge
When my 18-month-old started going into the bathroom and
closing the door, I knew she was ready to potty train. I would let her go in
and use her potty, dump it into the big toilet, and put it up in the sink for
me to rinse out. -- Katherine
Flushing fun
I began potty training my first child at about 20 months and
am now in the process of training our second. One excellent incentive is
letting them flush away the contents of the potty if they go. You need to
establish a rule that this is the only time they get to flush the toilet. This
is a simple and easy reward, and develops a good habit. -- Deanne Collins
Sitting
solution
We put our son Nick on the toilet backwards. The potty-chair
was too hard for him to use and my mother came up with the idea of putting him
straight onto the toilet, but backwards (she did it with my brother when he was
little). That way he automatically aimed in the right place, and he had the
back of the toilet to hold on to. He could also do a poo that way, too. He
thought it was such fun he wanted to do it all the time. It took about a month
to get the hang of it, and now he's happily standing up to do his wees. --

The
underpants ploy
I let my son choose some pants with his favourite character,
Thomas the Tank Engine, on them. Then I told him not to get Thomas wet. It
worked really well! -- Maria Galli
No more
nappies
My daughter tortured me for months, using the potty
successfully one day, then demanding nappies the next. Finally I told her that
the pack of nappies we had just bought was the last, and I wasn't buying any
more. I then bought some reusable training pants from the Internet. When we got
down to the last few nappies, I again emphasised that they were the last and,
when they were gone, there wouldn't be any more. We then went to the training
pants (with disposable ones at night). She had a few accidents the first week
and has been trained ever since! -- Emily
The right
clothes
A little trick with girls: I put my daughter in dresses for
about three weeks while we were potty training. It was easier for her to get
ready for the potty and allowed for quick decisions when she was in the middle
of playing. -- Lisa
Give up to
get results
Our
daughter Rachel was two and a half when we finally got her trained. We tried
everything in the book. She wanted to wear knickers, but not go to the potty.
Finally we said, "Go ahead and do what you want". Two days later, she
started using the potty on her own, with no encouragement from us! -- Nat
All this tips actually worked for her
in 2 days time i managed to potty train her
ada la 2 kali terlepas, sekali dlm kereta and sekali kat hall
Alhamdulillah, sekarang dah boleh pergi toilet sendiri
and even tido pun tak pakai diapers
after this nak train Maryam pulak cepat-cepat :)
So, mommys out there
how you potty train your child?
