I am so grateful I found this channel. I am about to start potty training my son and I am terrified. I’ve been reading a lot up on it to prepare myself. These tips are very helpful and make me feel a little more confident.
emma really helps wade through all the million product options out there. her recommendations make so much sense. my guru!
Your videos have provided so much information and have reinforced some of what ive known. Keep em coming.
To everyone asking what step stool that is: (I also had issues with her link not working that you can have emailed to you)
After searching all over for that stool or something similar, I found the Ikea trogen child step stool, I’m not sure if it’s the same one she is using in the video but it looks just like it. Hope this helps someone out there!
Thank you!
Helpful, thanks!
Thank you!!!! ❤️ I have been looking for this everywhere for weeks and nothing I found was stable enough... You saved me!!
Omg! Your vidoes have addressed the topics I needed help with almost exactly the same time you have uploaded. This has happened 3-4 times now!!! You are a life savior! ❤️❤️😊
You are so welcome!
Same with me Emma! Ur amazing, keep sharing more n more topics.
Wish i saw this video before i started. Thank you for the advice
A massive thankyou, another invaluable video.
Omg, I’m so grateful for all the tips on potty training.. I have seen great changes. Thanks you so much.
That is so good! I am so happy these tips helped!
Emma, are you actually following me around? We literally decided this morning that we were going to take a few days off in a couple weeks to start potty training with our toddler. Every time, you know just what I need. Thank you again!
😂 No worries at all!
Hello Emma, thanks so much for the video! Could you please provide the reference of the stepstool shown, it really looks ideal and I find it hard to find one that would match it... Thanks so much
Thank you so much for these information and tips that you share!💕 may I ask you what you think about the EC method?
Hi Emma. Love the videos for potty training. Would you be able to provide a link for a wooden stepping stool with handles as I’m having trouble finding one like it. Thanks
Thanks for the helpful video! Can you share product links to the items you shared?
Great info! Thank you 😊
You are so welcome!
Hi Emma! I religiously follow all your videos and recommend r you to a lot of people I know. Keep these great videos coming.
One question? From what age are these family seats suitable. My bub is 11 months old now. Asking because the ones I'm finding in Germany are seemingly a bit big.
Dear @Emma thank you so much for all your support and shared information. Just wondering if you can recommend where to find (online or in store in Australia) the wooden 2-step footstool. Can’t find it anywhere.. thank you 😊
I hope you enjoy the coffee ;)
My 4 year old little boy has Autism so toilet training is a little more difficult but I will use these tips for my younger boy who will be 2 in December I want to try potty train him soon x
Thank you Emma, Could you do offer tips on how to manage a 2.5 one tantrums...when understanding and physical ability is growing
Emma please do a video on car seat features we have to look for and also ur recommendations
Wow thank you so much. I feel at ease now about potty training😊 you are the best Emma..
That’s so great to hear 🙂
Thanks for the video dear I had requested this recently , please make video about EC training new borns
Thanks for the tip!
Great video! Emma, do you happen to know about square shaped family seats? We are struggling finding one here in Europe, only found portable reducing rings for square shaped toilets. 😔 Thank you!
Hi! Thank you for this!
Which toilet seat would you recommend? We are in AU
Thanks!
No problem!
Thank you for your amazing content Emma! One question: how would you handle pottying out-and-about? These products are not exactly portable, is it better to have a travel-specific potty/insert, or to just have to hold them over a toilet? I could see pros and cons to both but maybe there's a third option I'm not considering?
Awesome advice! I have a family toilet seat already, just need to replace the wobbly plastic step 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Where do you buy the seat from?
Hi Emma, please what’s the brand of the family toilet seat in the video? I use a Bemis brand that I can remove and rinse when cleaning the toilet, but it’s wood (the child toilet attachment is not wood) and I am looking for one that is not wood and is removable.
Awesome tips. Hope it works…
THANK YOU
It’s my pleasure!
What do you do when out and about
Many thanks for another super helpful video. You are wise and beautiful 😊
So glad it was helpful!😁
Thanks
No problem
Does anyone have any ideas for those who don't have these tools available? or for those who can't afford it? That would be great thank you.
This is great, my twins are a year old already,
1. when do I start potty training them?
2. You never mentioned anything about using a potty. in Africa, we start with a potty.
Do you have a recommendation for a wooden stool? None of the ones on Amazon are tall enough for the knees
You should make an affiliate link for these items! You should get commissions for the items you recommend. I wouldn't have known about these great products if it wasn't for you
Do they sell this stool on Amazon? Thanks!
The only lady i can trust blindly.
Thanks so much!
ditto! #HeavenSent!
I see why she’s An Angel!
I’m a First timer and I’m looooving the info I’ve made most of these mistakes we’ve over came now were both relaxed and don’t know the next step 🙏🏾 THANK YOU
True!
I also from the start 😅😊
We started elimination communication around 6 weeks old. People don't believe me but my 7 month old sits on the potty and does her business every time I do. We use a baby Bjorn potty with the high back.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi !👋 i m Manaim .. Congratulations 🎉 it's a great success when your infants are diaper free 😊i m also working on my 6 months old daughter you know it's a big success when your child is giving you response in the toilet.. Mantasha always did it ... but for pee or sometimes poop when she is having motion sickness... she did it in the diaper she just started her solid a month ago ..So I just wanna know about ur experience. .. can U please share your success ...
Thank you what is the name of the wooden foot stool I’m trying to search on Amazon I don’t know the name to describe the product to find it?
How do you find that kind of toilet seat? I’m in the US and have never seen that.
Emma, you are an angel. Questions about potty training. My boy is 14 months and I’ve purchase potty training seat for the floor it is fixed to the floor so it won’t tip over.
Do I seat him to poop, and stand to pee?
If my boy takes 10-15 minutes to finish pooping in his diaper. At what point to I take him to the seat?
Do I add water to the removal bowl, similar to a regular toilet?
And finally no one else in the family wants to start introducing potty training, how do I over come this to be consistent when at work.
What about the all in one ladder and toilet seat combo?
Hi Emma,
Would you have a working link for the toilet lid please?
Thank you x
Did you find it?
My 18 month old’s bottom is still too small for even the family style seat reducer. Would you recommend I just keep using the little removable potty ring until she’s just a bit bigger? She’s doing great with it for now - no pinching, very successful poos and wees. Her feet also don’t dangle far enough to even touch a foot stool so for now she just puts her feet up on the adult seat and sits almost cross-legged with her knees higher than her hips.
Thank you for the video... I needed it...and I also want to know when to start training baby for poo. My baby will be 4 months this September 25..
Look up elimination communication. Hey shayla has a video. We started our daughter at 6 weeks and I'm so glad I went this route!
The thumbnail though! 😂.
Same question as someone else previously asked, Emma, this is really great advice but what about when you are out and about having to use other people's toilets or public toilets? Do you try and use the seat reducer then by taking it with you?
That's what I want to know.
@@CalynnCorner She replied on another video where I asked the same question: "Hi Alison, when out and about you can use portable reducer rings. I do generally find that once the child is toilet trained which can happen in a few days to a week if they are ready, they will be comfortable to use a toilet at the park or shops if you just help support them. But there are portable reducer rings which fold up and go in a nappy/handbag as well."
Great video Emma. At what age do you recommend starting toilet training?
I prefer to wait until the child is around 2.5 years. At this age they can stay dry for 2 hours and have the ability to control their muscles to voluntarily do a poo or a wee. A child is toilet training is when they can tell you they need to go to the toilet and goes to the toilet without having accidents during the day. I find this is something children generally achieve at 2.5 years or older. Before then children are toilet timed (so parents take them to the toilet at set times) and accidents are common.
@@EmmaHubbard thanks.
Wow. My mom had to potty train me at 8months so they could accept me in daycare. Accidents sometimes happened at night.
Just bought a family seat & footstool!
Thank you for this video. great help.
One question: what if the child gets used to these things and then these are not available in other places like their schools etc.
No worries at all!
Once they are toilet trained then they are able to generalise and use toilets without these features. You will find that the school toilets are made for kids - they are shorter and have kid sized toilet seats so they won’t need the foot stool or toilet set insert.
Is that your son in the video? He's so adorable ☺
Also, what do you recommend for when you’re out and about and there is no seat reducer? My 18 month old is dwarfed by an adult seat and she looks uncomfortable as she tries to wee and I have to hold her under the arms. I haven’t even tried to have her poo on a big seat yet, but someday she will need to go poo when we’re out and about and I am a bit nervous about it.
Look into a travel potty
Hi Emma. Thanks for all the great advice. May I ask, what age would be the best to start toilet training?
Hi! I usually recommend starting toilet training when the little one is able to stay dry for 1 -2 hours at a time and is doing soft formed poops (so not constipated). Usually kids are able to stay dry for 1 -2 hours when they are 2 years of age. So I recommend starting toilet training when the little one is at least 2 years of age. Hope that helps!
Why wait that long? Babies can learn much earlier than that.
Hi !👋 i m Manaim .. Congratulations 🎉 it's a great success when your infants are diaper free 😊i m also working on my 6 months old daughter you know it's a big success when your child is giving you response in the toilet.. Mantasha always did it ... but for pee or sometimes poop when she is having motion sickness... she did it in the diaper she just started her solid a month ago ..So I just wanna know about ur experience. .. can U guys please share your success if you did to your infants ❤️
My little is only 13 months so we have a while before we need this, but I'm so glad I'm getting this information ahead of time! I was noticing just the other day that when he poos, he assumes a squatting position, and I've read many times that this is the natural position that humans want to be in when pooing. I was just thinking, I wonder how I can help him (years from now haha) keep this natural position once he's ready to toilet train. The wooden ladder! That seems such an obvious, simple answer! Love it. What are your recommendations when traveling? Thanks!
Yes please tell us what you recommend for travel! Planning to be on the road alot so how do you deal with public loos 🤔
When is the right time or age for potty training? Pls
We got a baby potty, just to get her to sit on, we don't expect her to use it or anything - almost half of the "extinction method" she's a year old this month. We haven't started to use it yet- any feedback for a tiny potty? it's basically an adult toilet but shrunk.
I’ve tried looking up family style toilet seats but they all look like an attached separate seat. Just a smaller hole to place over the bigger one (and looks like it can also pinch). Where might I find one like in the video? Any company recommendations?
I would also like this 😊
What family toilet seat do you recommend? I don't know what to choose. :/
My son is 18 months old and I want to start potty training him. However I will be traveling with him abroad in 2 months so I’m wondering if I should start once we get back instead.
Great vid, can’t help noticing your monstera needs attention! X
How to fix it?
So true!
What’s your opinion on an actual separate little potty ( throne type thing)? Thanks!!
I prefer using a standard toilet seat straight away. Kids are use to seeing their parents use a standard toilet and this is what your child is going to need to use in the end. Stat with.a potty just adds an extra transition into the toilet training process and can make the kids fearful of using the toilet.
@@EmmaHubbard Thank you for this response. I needed this question answered as well
What is the ideal age to potty train? How do I start?
the familiy toilet seat? So do I have to reinstall the whole toilet to the one you mentioned? I'm confused haha
What age can I start potty training x
Interesting but when we go out and about they don't have the family seat. So I think practice with a little portable potty or the ring is helpful. We did road trips a lot with my 2nd and he would ONLY go in HIS potty 😂
Q1. Should a parent stay inside the toilet all the time while kid is trying to pee or poo? Child is 3.5 yr old and safely sits.
Q 2. How long (time) should we wait for child to stay sitting on toilet seat? My child can sit for longer than 5 minutes (but hasn't pee or poo in toilet yet. It's just the beginning for us).
Q3. So, there are 3 toilets in home. This means putting 3 famioy style toilet seats AND 3 wooden stools ?
Thank you for your wonderful tips.
Hi Emma, your tips are so helpful. I watched your other video as well with the idea of putting on underwear under the diapers, which I would have never thought of - it's a great idea!
I signed up for your Toilet Training essentials PDF because I wanted to see what product you are using for the step-stool. Would you mind double-checking that PDF because none of the product links are active. I click on it and it doesn't take me to anything.
Same here! No links.
Is it bad that I bought my son his own little toilet instead of what she suggested? I thought it would make my son feel more comfortable and safe.
only 1 link in essential doc works((
Hello, I am from Bangladesh and I couldn't find these family style toilet seats anywhere. What do you suggest instead, a portable reducer ring or a small potty?
I would go with a portable reducer ring which sits on the standard toilet seat
@@EmmaHubbard thank you for replying! One more query : can I let my 7 month old pee/poop on the toilet every day after naps just to familiarize them with eventually going diaper free at some point after 18 months?
Which brand is the family style toilet seat you show in the video? 2:10
It’s a Caroma Family Toilet Seat
@@EmmaHubbard Thank you :)
Hello Emma, I have a two year old I’ve started potty training 7 days ago, she recently started saying that she needs to go pee or poop but I would know that she doesn’t have to go because she had already pee or pooped just moments before that…she especially does this when I’m talking to someone else and she just wants my attention. What would you suggest I should do?
I wish to know how you resolved this after 9mos? This is my current problem now 😢😥
My 2.5 year old has been great with no pants on just going to the potty by himself. When I put underwear on him he doesn’t tell me until after an accident and then says he has to go potty. Any suggestions?
I tried the 3 day potty training system with my 2yr old but he's speech delayed. He is doing great so far going pee in the big potty my only issue is he doesn't tell me when he needs to go to the potty. I have to catch him everytime before or when he is having an accident. Am I doing something wrong?!?! Is it to soon..HELP!!
What's your advice for what to do during nap times / bed times while the child is asleep? I'm assuming the child will still have to wear diapers during this time while they're asleep...?
I am potty training my 20 month old and we are just focusing on daytime potty training for now. I've heard that night time can be done simultaneously or at a later time - it mostly depends on what the parent is ready to handle 😊
Can I potty train my baby at 11 months old? I’m only asking because my cousin potty trained his daughter as soon as she learned to sit up.
I prefer to wait until the child is around 2.5 years. At this age they can stay dry for 2 hours and have the ability to control their muscles to voluntarily do a poo or a wee. A child is toilet training is when they can tell you they need to go to the toilet and goes to the toilet without having accidents during the day. I find this is something children generally achieve at 2.5 years or older. Before then children are toilet timed (so parents take them to the toilet at set times) and accidents are common.
@@EmmaHubbard ok. I thought babies can be toilet trained around 18 months. This was a good video
At what age is appropriate to start potty training my baby?
The book that I am following for potty training my 20 month old girl is "The Tiny Potty Training Book" by Andrea Olson
It's an Audio book + digital book and it seems to be going okay for us (I'm not doing a perfect job) but i am also under a little bit of a time crunch because I'm due in August with my second baby so we really want to get this done now
Hope this helps 😁
All of this sounds like a lot of work anyway. Is there a simpler method when you perform just a small piece of work at a given time? For example, repeating some magic word with each attempt. :)
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
💕
What’s the ideal age to start potty training and what are the signs the child ( and parent!) are ready for it?! Thanks:)
Most kids are toilet training between 2.5 years to 3.5 years!
My boy is 3 years old, he can go pee at almost any time, he knows how to control the muscles but he has no interest in going to the bathroom. He doesn’t dance when he has to go, he has no tells, he will just go while he is playing without missing a beat and will stay wet without saying anything even with underwear. He is incredibly smart, he is reading already and can hold conversations, but no amount of Im proud of you, candy or youre a big boy mean anything to me. In fact he told me once that he just wants to be a baby and wear diapers. I have nothing. He’s been in underwear for weeks and I take him to the bathroom every two hours.
He will go in the potty and then 5 minutes later he will go in his pants.
We are in the exact same situation. Running out of options here.
@@phoebec6024 we got it figured out for ours
@@isaacbussey3216 what turned it around?
How do you also know when she has bladder control???
HI Kaitlyn, if your little one is able to stay dry for 1 - 2 hours at a time then they have enough bladder control to start toilet training. I hope that helps.
@@EmmaHubbard thanks it does😊 I will check her every hr or 2.
How do you know when your toddler is ready to sit on the potty? I have tried to tell her pull down your pull ups and she did but got a little upset when I told her... "ok now sit down on your potty"... what do I do now or do you think she's ready... she's a late talker also because of bad eye sight as a baby ans we didn't know until we brought her to special eye doc for little kids. PLEASE HELP!!!!
IM FEELING VERY overwhelmed😮💨😩😮💨😩😮💨😮💨
It can be extremely overwhelming. I have a YT video on how to toilet train which I think you will find helpful. Here is the link in case you want to watch it :czcams.com/video/FuEOVu6U4CI/video.html
At what age do parents start potty training their toddlers?
I've potty trained 5 kids already successfully now Im Lost after 10 years i have a toddler and I don't know how to potty train a totally forgot
NOBODY SAYS... and THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW.😮💨
that if your child at 2 and a half has SPEECH DELAY... you don't start potty them till the age of 3.
A language delay can make it a bit more challenging.
But what is more important is if their body is developmentally ready. So by that I mean they have the bladder capacity and control to stay dry for 1 -2 hours at a time and are not constipated. If your child is able to do these things, then they are ready to start toilet training. Like you said age should not be the deciding factor.
The only other thing I would add is if a little one has a language delay then visuals are extremely helpful.
What are your thoughts on little toilets?
Should I not use a little potty
