Babies are born with a understanding that it doesn’t feel right to be wet and dirty. They also will often show you before the act happens so you can catch it in a bowl or potty. Over time they lose this ability as they have essentially been ‘trained’ to think that it’s normal to soil yourself. Key points to remember:
- This is the easiest window to begin
- Start by using the sound you have chosen to associate with pottying
- Observe signs during diaper free time
- Relax and enjoy your baby
