Guest guest Posted February 20, 2000 Report Share Posted February 20, 2000 Hi~ We did things pretty much as described, just a few additions. As much as possible I let my son run around in just his underwear and a tee shirt...he is a little guy ( not quite 3 when we did this) so nobody really thought anything of it. We did the same for my NT daughter and sometimes not having to fool with the zipper and jeans was the difference between having an accident and not...it cut down on the laundry too.. Also for the first week or so I planned to stay home always so we didn't have to fuss with the possibility of accidents or having to wear a diaper in the car. Pretty much once the diaper was gone it was gone except for at night. Also if he did have an accident we always went to the bathroom to clean up. We REALLY reinforced for going in the potty, we even mildly reinforced ( good try, Quin ) if he had an accident in the bathroom. It took us about a month and 1000 loads of laundry until he was really reliable for bowel and urination during the day and then we took off the diaper at night and he was fine. Ironically he was pottytrained faster than my NT daughter! Go figure. good luck! Spencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2000 Report Share Posted February 20, 2000 We did not do it this way. Instead I set a timer for 15 minutes. Every 15 minutes it when off and he went to the bathroom and sat for just a little bit. Put the underwear on, set the timer and left the bathroom. I think I rewarded him for just sitting on the potty a little. We did this all day about 40 times the first day. Next day increased the timer to 20 minutes and then 30 minutes. He wore diapers at night. He had lots of accidents, which we cleaned up with out a fuss. Put him on the potty and said next time go in the potty. We coaxed him with go in the potty and you get a cookie. He finally did go in the potty, got the reward and lots of praise. We ran the water while he was sitting on the potty sometimes too. It took a while for him to understand the feeling of needing to urinate. And going on the floor was learning experience. I find what you describe as an odd technique. I rewarded the behavior of going in the potty, not rewarding not going in his pants. But this is because I feel having an accident is not a willful act, it is truely an accident because he is not used to recognizing the sensation for urinating. My son then became trip trained for about 3 months, I would remember to tell him to go potty every hour then every two hours. His self initiation came much later. He actually likes to tell me " potty " before he goes, like he needs permission. We are still working on hand washing after every time he goes. This has yet to become self initiated. This is tough going. I know. This is the ultimate potty training experience, this is really training. I'm sure there are other ways of doing it. This worked for us. just a mom At 07:18 PM 2/19/00 -0800, you wrote: >From: " Kohler " <joko1994@...> > >I posted a few weeks ago on potty training and since got the book by Foxx.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2000 Report Share Posted February 20, 2000 I started out my potty training mission with tons of data sheets, reinforcers, and enthusiasm, fully expecting to have him potty trained within a week. It took a month. I took data on every sip of liquid he had. I took him to the potty every 10 minutes. I recorded when he sat on the potty and for how long. I ran water, I read books. I praised him for dry pants. When he had an accident (usually 30 seconds after I pulled his pants up), I'd just say " Wet. Pee pee goes in the potty. " then I'd clean up. Through data I knew exactly when he had to go - then he learned to hold it for about four hours! One trick that seemed to help was that I put a ball of wadded toilet paper in his small potty. I though maybe we wanted the sensation of something against his bottom (like a diaper) before he released. This went on for a month. I did so much laundry! Then one day, in typical fashion, he got it. It took a month, but almost overnight he started using the potty and didn't even need a diaper while sleeping! The problem seemed to be the toilet itself - not the inability to control the release of urine. He demonstrated that he had control when he went from urinating every 30 minutes after drinking to every 4 hours. Best of luck to everyone doing this. We're almost at our one year anniversary of using the potty, but the memory of the experience is still oh-so vivid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2000 Report Share Posted February 20, 2000 I guess I should tell you last June we had a potty party for 3 days doing what you desrcibed. Since he never initiated on his own he's learned to potty to get out of doing work/as a behavior issue. We've always taken him or told him to go-over the last 2 weeks this has increased to a point where we need to reshape/overcorrect etc. I know there are a few different books by Foxx, and when I saw what we had to do I was discouraged. He is getting rewarded for Going potty and keeping DRY pants. He never gets reinforced for wet pants, It was suggested to wait before bumping up the time. But this is getting old(2 days) Maybe I'll move it up to 15 min.Thanks for all your help- Re: [ ] Toilet training >From: " L. " <diana@...> > >We did not do it this way.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Sounds like our son a while back who is 5.5 yrs now. I agree that it is a major control issue. We would know that he needed to go potty and explain thru his " no " that he needed to go and physically put him on it. And lo and behold he went to the bathroom even though he said no. We just pushed through it and " assisted " him and in time the no's to potty and everything else went away. It's amazing how his lights were turned off for 2+ years and to see him go back to repeat stages that were missed. This definetly was a control issue that I also believe stemmed not only from a skipped stage but that he always has to perform at school and probably doesn't get to use the no word there because they won't let him get away with it. I would continue to politely assist him Goodluck, Mike > Does anyone have any suggestions for toilet training?

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Has anyone who trained him at school visited you in the home while he was there? That may help. Do you use pull-ups? If you do but the school doesn't that confuses him. Stop all liquids after dinner. Actually, don't use diapers in the home setting at all. Never ask him if he needs to use the toilet. Just put him on it once every 30 minutes while you monitor the liquid consumption, too. All I ever told my sons in toilet training was, " That is correct. " Nothing more.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 Hi Joann, My son is over 5 and is not trained yet. We started him also when he was 3. ' dx's are global delays, hypotonia, and apraxia. He shows no interest in going on the toilet. I think it's just too much effort for him to request it, take his pants down, sit on the thing, and push, if he has to. has a definite motivation problem - he just doesn't care. Same with speaking. Therapy is working on this and it's helping! If I catch him soon enough, I'll sit him on the toilet, but it's obvious that he doesn't want to be there. He makes NO effort to push, so we have a problem with getting backed up. I just keep trying. Someday he'll get it! It is frustrating for us, tho. We try to make it as pleasant as possible and have even tried bribes, but to no avail. I sure hope you don't become discouraged by this! Every child is different. I have known apraxic children to be trained early. There are some in his class. It just depends on the child. Good luck with it! ~~ in PA > hi all...yet another question on toilet training! so > please bear with me..do children with apraxia > typically have trouble toilet training?.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 Hi Joanne, I just trained my 2y and 9month old son. We started giving him M & M's everytime he would go but he started the habit of going only when he was running around without pants on. Then I had to say you get the reward only after you go potty and put yours pants back on. After that it took just a few days. My daughter took longer. I think kids really can vary with the amount of time it takes to train .

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 My daughter was 4 when she was completely trained. Prior to that, she would do well at the sitters but, not at home. At home then I started to push the issue with her. Due to this she regressed at the sitters and refused to go anymore anywhere. I finally got those old training pants and rubber pants and made her wear them. I also quit making a big deal out of it to her. I like pull-ups but, I think that they are a little too absorbant!! I wanted her to feel uncomfortable when she went in her pants. When she did go in the potty I made a BIG deal out of it with big hugs, and kisses and candy or cookies if she initiated it. I finally realized it was just a battle of wills and she was going to do it when she wanted to, regardless of what I wanted. So, I let her be in control. I think that is the key, let them be in control; they will do it when they are ready.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 Hi, My daughter was 3-1/2 before she was potty trained, and that meaning she still had some accidents. I used blow pops on the back of the toilet in a container, when she went, she got a blow pop, then when it came to pooping in the potty, blow pops did not work, so I used videos to get her going,(Ok, I was feeling desperate, as cleaning poop out of panies, actually just throwing them away, now I would not use pull-ups, they do not seem to feel wet, and I think pull-ups confuse them, I used panies, and she KNEW when she was wet, and did not like it) expensive-yes and once she got in the habit of pooping in the potty, she understood, that I would not buy more videos everytime she pooped. Just a note though, my sister's little girl who is almost 3, is NOT potty trained, she does NOT have apraxia, or anything else, she has used the potty a couple of times, though never pooped in it, so it may have nothing to do with apraxia, she is now using the m & m's and it is working, and she tries to go all the time. Hope this helps, Liz --- In @y..., Del Monte Jo Ann <jaasdelmonte@y...> wrote: > hi all...yet another question on toilet training! so > please bear with me..do children with apraxia > typically have trouble toilet training?..my son just > turned 3 and i have started potty training but no luck > yet...

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 JoAnn, My son had real trouble potty training. We started when he was 2 and didn't complete until he was almost 3 and a half. There are different schools of thought on the right age to begin. In one class they would say you started late and the other would say don't worry about it when they are ready they will do it themselves. Me personally, I come right in the middle of the two. If it were so easy to let them do it themselves why do you call it potty training? I am not sure if apraxia has anything to do with it. Or if it is one of the other disorders that they have I just know everything has been more difficult for my son than his sisters or any of his friends. I know this didn't answer your question directly. But if I had to do it over with him. I would have put him in pull ups to save my sanity! In fact I am potty training my two year old girl and decided that was the way to go!! Wishing you lots of luck and patience! > hi all...yet another question on toilet training! so > please bear with me..do children with apraxia > typically have trouble toilet training?..my son just > turned 3 and i have started potty training but no luck > yet...any suggestions?..it's been two weeks since he > started and nothing..i let him run around the house > with nothing on and all i've been doing is cleaning up > after him...i try not to pressure him but i would > think i would get some signs if its working?..am i > starting too early?..did i start too > late?..thanks...joann(from nj) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 My twin daughters with apraxia toilet trained at 2. They are 5 now. My son who is 7, didn't potty train until after 3. The other tip I have heard is to wait until summer so that you can let them run around in just underwear. Winter is a hard time to start potty training because there are so many clothes to take off and put on. Good luck! > hi all...yet another question on toilet training! so > please bear with me..do children with apraxia > typically have trouble toilet training?..my son just > turned 3 and i have started potty training but no luck > yet...any suggestions?..it's been two weeks since he > started and nothing..i let him run around the house > with nothing on and all i've been doing is cleaning up > after him...i try not to pressure him but i would > think i would get some signs if its working?..am i > starting too early?..did i start too > late?..thanks...joann(from nj) > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 Hi Joanne, maybe if you haven't tried already get a potty training video tape. My son loved watching this it was fun and had lots of songs and he'd run to the potty after watching for awhile. (sometimes he tried and sometimes just washed his hands etc.) All in all he loved it put it on himself when he wanted to watch it and it went through a little potty routine. Check your local library our library is great and has a rental section for videos. I eventually purchased one because he watched it alot. Steve was just a little over 3 when he was finally completely potty trained. Hope this helps .... Good Luck Kerry mom to Apraxic age 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 13, 2002 Report Share Posted October 13, 2002 We selected a period when we had no outside commitments for 1-2 weeks. We stayed at home and put Nick in big boy pants (real underwear, not training pants). We put him on the pot every hour. Within a week he was potty trained with 2 accidents (number one only). The number two took another week. I made him stay in the bathroom to watch me rinse out the poop so he would see that I just threw it in the toilet anyway. Make certain your child has overcome any diarrhea issues before you try. Also be patient as your child is still quite young.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2002 Report Share Posted October 13, 2002 Hi, We went to the dollar store and got a bunch of stuff and placed it in a laundry basket behind a french door so that he could see the stuff but not get it. At first we would let him pick a toy for just sitting on the toilet. Once that was well established we made it that he had to do something to get a toy. It didn't take him long to make the connection. He could talk when we did this and so he would say immediately " I peed in the toilet. Let's get a toy " and run for the door and wait for us to open it.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2002 Report Share Posted October 13, 2002 Bissell, Now that's funny and true. Dave, were are having successes daily since Sept 1st. He is in big boy underwear so he knows when he is wet. (we still do diapers at the mall)Matt is taken to the toilet every hour, if he doesn't go they take him a half hour later. Soon we will start to take him at infrequent times, like 45 minutes and then 1 1/4 etc. He has a PECS routine strip, showing him to pull down pants then pull down underwear, then sit on toilet etc. he also has a social story about going to the toilet, which is read to him. We also use a lot of other books that he likes. We don't use a toilet insert because he hand flaps and fidgets too much, so with no insert he has to hang on! When he pees we have a parade, cheering, hugging, high fives etc. If he has an accident off the toilet, we take him to the bathroom pull down his pants and say " this is wet, pee on toilet " and sit him on the toilet for a couple of minutes. In six weeks he is up to about four successes a day and we haven't had any negative experiences.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2002 Report Share Posted October 17, 2002 Rifat, Many of us have seen very positive results with Kutapressin. No need to be concerned about it being from pig's liver. My son has been on it for approxiately 3 1/2 years and it was extremely helpful in promoting in his concentration, attentiveness, and responsiveness. I have nothing but good things to say about Kutapressin!

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Kiersten: Take a look at Steps to Independence: Teaching Everyday Skills to Children With Special Needs (http://www.amazon.com/Steps-Independence- Teaching-Everyday-Children/dp/1557666970/ref=sr_1_2/002-3431576- 0708019?ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1179320264 & sr=8-2). This book contains a very good approach to toilet training for children with special needs. Although time consuming, it is very effective. I tried everything with my daughter before trying the method set forth in this book -- it worked very well. Thanks. Debbie Z. > > I am posting for a friend with a 4yr. old on the spectrum (girl).
