Pampers are very convenient and useful stuff. For my mother first. You do not have to change gauze diapers every 30-40 minutes, wash clothes twice a day and, therefore, less iron. Pampers allow you to remain a woman, not a machine. For a baby, the diaper is also good - it is not wet in it, and therefore it sleeps well at night. But in a certain period of the diaper should be discarded. And here's how to do it, we'll tell you.
When should I refuse a diaper?
Discuss about when you need to wean a child from diapers can be infinitely long - every mother has her own opinion. One will try not to wear them at all and adjust to the crumb at birth, and the other will wait until the child himself sits on the pot. Usually the child should be accustomed to the pot when he starts to understand something. It's somewhere in 1.5 years. But the period of habituation can last up to 3 years.
There are two ways to get out of diapers.
- This method does not call calm - you will have to work hard and spend a lot of nerves, and not always the works will be successful. You just need to take off the diaper and stubbornly walk with the cloth and clean up for the baby, even "... on the other side of the sofa ... oh, how did you get there ?!" At the same time, you can not blame the kid for what he's done, but not to him. This can all last forever. Not one month and not two. But there are cases when the child is taught quite early - from 6 months. From this method, no laurels, except how to save money and time for washing - the patience, in the near future you will not get. Patience and once again patience - here is our advice.
- This method can be called a method of minimal resistance - this is when the child grows up, you just calmly explain to him what a pot is and what it is intended for, and why you can not write more in the diaper. This method is much more humane than the previous one. You buy a pot and give it to your child for reference. When you see that the child is suffering from discomfort, suggest removing the diaper and sitting down on the pot, saying "A-ah." Usually, children understand this, well, not from the first, but from the third time, and accurately and quietly ask for a pot. Be sure to invite the baby to make a toilet after sleeping and eating. In the rest of the time you can offer to pisat every 40-50 minutes.
It is worth noting that, as practice shows, almost all the children who have disaccustomed to diapers and go to the toilet themselves somewhere in 1.5 years experience, let's say, a "potty crisis". This is when you knew how to do everything: pissing, croaking and even making a pot, but at some point it snapped, and the child simply did not sit on the pot for any mushrooms. Usually this period lasts about 2 months and is accompanied by hysterics, arching with every attempt to sit on the pot. There is only one advice - to wait. The child then agrees again to sit down on the potty. But this does not mean that the pot should be hidden. On the contrary, put it, for example, under the crib - so the crumb will know where he is and even sometimes play with him and try to sit down.
Rules that must be observed.
- Remember once and for all: you can not scold a child for being described or refusing to go to the pot.
- Be sure to praise the baby for success, even if he just walked over and took the pot in his hands.
- Talk with the child, tell him that he is already an adult and it is simply indecent to walk in diapers.
- Be sure to keep a few diapers on every fireman.
- If the child does not understand - show him what and how to do - visually. This mainly applies to boys - they will soon understand what's what, if they look at how it's done by dad.
- The game form will also help you to remove the baby from diapers. To do this, show the crumbs to the toilet, with it, pour the contents of the pot and rinse. Percent 70, the next time the child wants to pour the potty by himself, at the very least, just press the drain button - and this is already progress.
Regardless of which way of weaning you would choose. One must remember one rule: everything will come with time. There is no child in the world who does not learn to walk on a pot.
