Have you ever wondered how mothers managed without diapers in the past or how families toilet train in different cultures? There is an age period from birth to 6 months and that some babies remain receptive beyond this age to teach your baby potty training.
The basics of infant potty training involve learning your infant's body language, timing, patterns, in relation to feeding and waking In addition, many mothers instinctively know when their babies need to go. In short, it's about communication between you and your baby.
The goal of infant potty training is to toilet train a child while still an infant. Some parents begin this from birth. It's a very controversial issue with most experts agreeing that an infant does not have the neurological or physical development necessary to actually learn to control her bowels and bladder at this age. Mostly, it is the parent who is trained to hold the infant on a potty seat until she goes.
Opposing Views
Proponents claim there are many advantages to infant potty training though not much scientific data can validate such findings. They claim infant potty training means that the baby and their mothers can bond well together. It is easier on the infant and more comfortable for them as well. In addition, infant potty training allows the baby to become more independent and it also helps in reducing diaper waste, while it is also a natural and normal thing to teach your baby.
Opponents of infant potty training point to the futility of trying to force a child to learn something before she is capable of doing it. They compare it to trying to teach an infant to walk or talk at birth; the baby just isn't ready to do it. They feel the time spent holding an infant on a potty chair would be better spent letting the baby be a baby.
The gap between the two sides leaves parents to decide what is best for their child. Is the effort, when the child is so young, worth it? Only you can decide that. - 32531
