A lot of kids are potty trained around the age of 2 or later. Another option available is baby potty training which has its own benefits even though it might be harder for some people to implement. This article will discuss 5 reasons to give early potty training a try.
1. Helps Increase Baby-Bonding: Although scientific study is lacking, people that support this method claim that infant potty training can bring you and your baby closer. In order to find success with this method it is necessary to be very aware of your baby and his or her signals. Being so closely connected in this way allows you to form a communication of sorts that wouldn't normally be present.
2. Less Irritation: An increase in crying and fussing that many children experience has been linked to possible diaper irritation. Naturally, by using less diapers with this technique, these common rashes can be decreased or even avoided.
3. Develops Independence: Diaperless babies are encouraged to crawl to a potty at an early age, which gives them a sense of independence that diapered babies do not experience. Instead the diapered babies are very dependent upon the parent to change their diaper over and over again.
4. Less Diaper Waste: The number of diapers used around the world has created significant waste in our landfills. Cloth diaper usage can be one solution, yet it has its own negative effects on the environment as considerable energy is used to launder them. Baby potty training can help in these areas as well as being friendlier on your budget.
5. Completely Natural: Mothers in Africa and Asia often carry their un-diapered infants around. They are able to do this without being soiled because they have become accustomed to reading the signs of their babies. While the technique of holding your baby away from you before being soiled won't work for most modern families, the same principles of reading your child's signs apply.
This article looked at 5 reasons to potty train your baby early. Not using diapers can encourage baby bonding, be more comfortable to the child, increase their independence and reduce diaper waste all at the same time and has been considered more natural.
This idea is not well documented and is greatly debated, but if you are considering this method you probably have more questions...
