When is the right time to remove the diaper to a child
The phase of "weaning" from the diaper is a very important moment in the evolution of the child.
As regards the neurophysiological maturation sphincter control is acquired progressively and, usually, the control of the anal sphincter that precedes bladder sphincter. The complete sphincter control is between three and four years, but there is no precise age when the child is ready to make less of the diaper because every child is different and must avoid force the issue because it could force him lengthen the course.
So it must respect his time. Usually two to three years we proceed with the first attempts and the girls for physiological reasons are a bit early. Surely the spring and summer are the best times, because if they get wet, do not take too cold, also with the heat the diaper is impaired.
During the "weaning" from diaper plays an important role on the affective attitude of the family. The mother-child relationship is extremely involved. For baby feces are a material "precious", special, has an important sentimental value. The child considers his own excrement a product, its "work of art", and is happy to show them and donate them to mom and dad. Therefore a positive attitude from parents, particularly mothers, about their expulsion will facilitate the child to abandon the security of the diaper.
But how do you know when is the right time?
There are some signs indicative of achieved psychological maturity that can be caught, such as observing and imitating the behavior of adults or older brother, show desire for independence, walk and sit alone, ability to raise and lower the pants alone , etc.
Some tips for moms ...
1) not be in a hurry: wait for the right time is an important factor for success.
2) It may be tempting to choose the child the potty with her mother. In market if they are different, in all colors and patterns. They are also very comfortable gearboxes, or those soft tablets that are put directly on the toilet to reduce its size, giving a child the feeling of doing something as large. Very inviting for small are also panties with his favorite cartoon characters.
3) let him choose your seat (not necessarily the bathroom, but with common sense), the games you want to have with them, and if they want or not have her mother close.
4) Create a daily life: for example, to accompany him to the potty after meals (or at regular intervals, for those who just can not make it to withstand a few hours) and set him without diaper.
5) Put into account a series of "accidents" of course, that should not be too remarkability (but not ignored: simply, must be accompanied by an explanation serene, "it does not do anything, the next you run and tell his mother we travel to the bathroom ").
6) Have patience, never to hurry, but also do lots of cuddles and cheers when the child is able to control the sphincters. Do not scold him never in cases of bankruptcy and, you never make comparisons with the children of others.
