Not only did this work well for a potty break, but it was also great for when we went to the store. Katie could easily and comfortably slip off her clothes and sit on the potty without having to worry about her clothing constricting her or being too tight or uncomfortable. Moreover, the use of disposable training pants also made potty training toddlers easier. Underwear is way more fun when it features your kids’ favorite character. If your toddler is into Minnie, then this set of seven Disney training pants will be a hit. These are also available in smaller sets of three, though you’ll need a fair amount of training pants in the beginning so you always have a clean pair on hand when accidents happen. Training pants mimic the feel of regular undies, and the main difference is that they’re made of a much more absorbent material so the spillage won’t be as bad. Many parents may decide to forgo potty training while traveling. It just is too off the norm and too different from your toddler’s routine and schedule to seem manageable. Potty training on the road is also just another thing to stress and worry about while on vacation! Softly padded, waterproof protection that keeps car seats and strollers dry. Whether it’s a wet swimsuit or a toilet training accident, Dry Seat makes travel more comfortable and stress free for everyone.”

If you’re not familiar with a potty watch, it’s a wearable that goes on your kids’ wrist that lights up and makes sounds at regular intervals (30, 60, or 90 minutes). When your toddler hears the song and sees the lights, they’ll know it’s time to go try. The watch, which is suitable for kids ages 18 months and up, makes getting your child into the bathroom less of a battle because it’s not you doing the reminding. Plus what little kid doesn’t love a cool, loud, and bright gadget on their wrist? This is available in pink, purple, or green, just note that it only counts down and does not actually tell time. Oh and when DD was napping I used to listen really carefully and as soon as I heard her stirring I used to rush in with the potty and plonk her in it half asleep. Seemed to work Any advice would be really appreciated! I have another daughter and I'm pregnant with third so I don't mind investing in something decent. The chart itself is magnetic and the stars are magnets, so they can be used again and again. This also comes with a felt princess crown and a book.

There are several options when it comes to portable potty chairs. We brought our regular one with us (the classic frog one which I love and have used with multiple kids now) but it ended up taking up quite a bit of space in the car and kept toppling out during stops and so on. That’s what a true “travel potty” may have been a better option, things like: I would prefer to leave it in the car seat with a spare for accidents. My thoughts are it needs to keep the car seat dry, and absorb as much wee as possible without my daughter feeling completely wet. I researched online and learned that there are protectorsthat are specifically designed for car seats, but I was hesitant to spend a lot of money when I knew I could achieve the same result with some creativity. When it comes to small children, don’t throw all your hard work down the drain. Help your potty training toddler by having a portable potty seat, a change of clothes, extra clothes and more clothes, and have them work on telling you when they need a potty break. You can continue with the toilet training and not have to worry about potty training regression! Use a protector on your car seat that is specifically designed for your toddler’s car seat, or you can also make one.

The unfortunate thing about potty training car seat protectors is that they are not actually tested with car seats in car crash safety tests so they could be compromising the safety of your child in their car seat. I am not saying they do in fact make it unsafe, only that it hasn’t been proven or tested to be safe when used with your car seat, in your vehicle. You can choose to invest in one of these if you so choose. There are several options out there, most which are water proof and even include storage (which can be handy on a road trip!). The “ Oh Crap!” Potty Training Method is popular these days, and this book will walk you through everything you need to get started. Beyond just teaching a method, the book answers a lot of common potty training questions like when it’s time to start, what to do at night, and so much more. Some parents find the book a little harsh, while others love it, so it’s a good idea to read before you plan to start the process to see if it works for you.If you don’t want to give up (like our stubborn selves…) you may then want to consider the following recommendations for car potty training during long road trips: I won’t go into all the details of “how to potty train” (though I really need to write that article too!) but let’s just say that she hadn’t mastered her bodily functions by the time we left on our vacation. Pee almost always went in the potty, but poop was a completely different story. At first, I was a bit skeptical; I wasn’t sure if pee pads were a good idea for a car seat. I mean, wouldn’t they make a mess and be hard to clean? But after some research and talking to other moms, I learned that you can actually put pee pads in a car seat and they can really help with odor control, clean-up and protecting the car seat fabric from the mess.

Despite the many diasters and accidents our daughter had during our 3-week family road trip, after we got home, she only got better! And a very short while later she was good to go! She now only has an accident maybe once a week, and usually just when she doesn’t quite get her pants down in time. Okay. DD has now been awake from nap since about 3pm. Not sure if she had wet nappy after nap, but I do know she did a wee just before nap (the accident caused by holding on for the Pull Ups). I have given her some juice in the past hour and I am pretty sure she wants to go. She keeps going and sitting on her potty, and when playing she has said "need wee wee" but still nothing. I have the potty right next to wear she is playing ready, and give her gentle reminders. It can also help to have a portable potty training toilet seat insert with you as you travel, especially if your child is very small/young or has often had trouble with public restroom toilet seats and their size, etc.It’s potty learning time here at CSFTL. We have a little handful of kiddos who turned two this past year and new potties and undergarments abound. I’ve never thought much about it in the past, we’ve just made do with the other kids. Having gone through three car seats in one week with my last child during this period, I’m determined to keep that from happening to my precious Foonf. Our review on the Clek Foonf touches on how fun it is to disassemble! Here on Home Cleaning Family we strive to be the go-to resource on all things home and family. We want to help you manage your own home and family life with all the tools and information you need to be successful, the first time. You know how you’re supposed to reassure your toddler that you can almost always find a bathroom? Well, this OXO travel potty makes that sentiment a reality. Long car rides, strolls outside, trips to places where bathrooms are scarce are nothing to fear thanks to OXO. Basically, this has flexible flaps on the sides to hold a plastic bag, and while it may seem weird at first to pee or poop in a bag, it’s better than in their underwear. This can also fit over a public restroom toilet (the legs can be positioned outward so that it’s a flat seat) to make it cleaner and more kid-sized. If you want to find a potty training car seat cover, you’ll likely search for your brand of car seat and see if they have one for the same model car seat, though I am sure many of the options will work fine on any brand. Just make sure that it doesn’t interfere with the proper use and operation of your child’s car seat! Once she can tell you she needs a wee/poo then it's not too difficult to stop the car and whip the potty out wherever you go. Or now in our case pee at the side of the road/down a drain/up against an ancient monument (DS who else????). DD recently did a poo at the side of the M1 into the potty.........the lorry drivers thought it was hilarious!!!
