| Potty training for boys |
| Does anyone have any good advice for potty training a boy. Our 2 yr old son has no interest in the potty, but I would like to get him started in the coming months. Any advice is welcomed! |

If you child is not ready you are going to have to put a lot of effort in it.
I guess you can have a potty available for him, you can read book related to it and talk about it...check out if at least he shows some interest.
What they say is 6 monthes if he is not ready 3 days if he is. I chose the second solution.

| thank you for the advice. We do have a potty available for him and we have read books and watched videos, and talked to him about it, but no luck yet. We will keep encouraging him, though. It will happen sooner or later. |

I have watched a lot of boys growing up and the best way, I have found, is to put some cheerios in the potty with water and tell him to aim try and hit sink them!! Whatever works!

| hello having problems I did wellthis is what I didi to get mine to use the potty.. I babysat other children older than my son and had him watch the other's use the potty and included him like he was using it too taking turns and then of course it is easier if you know another of the same sex that is around or maybe same age as yours and they will help your figure out what he or she needs to do and use jellybeans as a reward or someother candie or fruit snacks when they use the potty to show that when you use it and do it right you get rewared so they in turn do it themselves. It is good to use this until about six months after they have began potty training then they should do it without the rewards good luck! |

| Introduce him, let him sit on the potty with his clothes on, just to get used to it. Talk to him about it when you are changing his diaper. But really, if he is not interested, wait longer. It is hard when they are not ready when we think they should be, but starting before he is ready will make it a much more difficult process than it needs to be for both of you. |
