Potty Training Boys: Hell on Earth?

November 2nd, 2008   Filed Under Potty Training Boys  

Many parents believe potty training boys is harder than potty training girls. They base this belief on two ideas. The first is that boys mature physically and mentally later than girls do. The second is that biologically and thanks to their penis, boys feel little discomfort when they wet themselves. Other parents disagree, however. They think that potty training boys and potty training girls are equal in that both are difficult. Experts share this idea, too. According to doctors and child-rearing experts, it’s the strategy – not the gender – that means the difference between potty training success and failure.

If you’re a parent with male toddlers to potty train, you need all the help you can get. Who better to turn to for advice than Dr. Wayne Jensen? He created ‘Potty Trained in 1 to 3 Days’ as a guide for parents to wean their kids off diapers early. The guide is available in audio format so you can download it to your computer or iPod and listen to it while you go about your chores. The guide walks you through the process of potty training boys and girls and is the product of years of research and first-hand experience.

Baby Potty Training: The Science Behind Baby’s Plumbing

November 2nd, 2008   Filed Under Baby Potty Training  

Think baby potty training is impossible because babies are too small to control their bladders? Think again. Research shows that infants are capable of holding it in for a short time and then releasing it on cue. You see, babies do not pee randomly or haphazardly. Infants, for example, pee only while awake or are about to. Moreover, baby bladders do not leak easily. In one study, researchers tried and failed to make healthy newborns urinate by pressing their bladders. They failed, and the reason is very simple: even during infancy, the bladder wall’s muscles have become stable and these walls contract only when the infant urinates.

These findings debunk the idea that baby potty training is impossible. In fact, not only is baby potty training possible, parents around the world have done it. Think about this: the diaper is a fairly recent invention. If baby potty training is truly out of the question, how then did parents deal with their children’s urine and poop? Before there were diapers, there were open grounds, latrines,  and toilets. When babies have to poop or pee, their parents simply hold them over the target.
