hetal,thanks for sharing potty training tips. I got inspired after seeing the post about potty training and got a potty for Arjun today. He poops every morning after i feed him- his expression to show that he is pooping is sqautting.
hetal, i am thinking that I will try him on potty with diapers on and then change him once he is done every morning as I am a bit lazy and would like to avoid mess specially will hate carpet stains. I was thinking of doing that until he could signal before he goes. What you say? Hetal replied. yes it can be done !
i was inspired by cloth diapers so i tried them,,well cleaning heavily solid ones were a big work so i too ended up buying potty seat for her...but pee training i m feeling good with cloth ones because they are easy to clean;just throw in wshing machine,, than the soiled one(needs prewash) and babies feel wetness in cloth better than diaper..also note that cloth diapers a good quality ones dont leak that often,,until 3-4times..i observed..
however if arjun is able to feel the wetness in ordinary diaper,,volaah,,you are lucky :)
good idea :)

arjun is ready for potty training, as he is showing some signs of it so go ahead..put him on his potty chair as soon as you see him starting with those expression..

make him wear only tshirts and no pants or ne thing that covers his legs, except diaper,,,,as they are easy to remove or just lift them, before that short 5-10mins of time..

because often kids get irritated when something disturbs before passing bowels,,esp if they are in urgency ! or they might become conscious and just stop their bowels,,just like it is happening in sweety case..

so good luck,,a great idea,,
i think i did receive your email,m confused if its you or my cousin arti joshi..so let me know the reply here or there...
Love to arjun
Hetal
