Child potty training is a difficult time for both parent and child.
  However, it can be turned into a more fun experience with a bit of planning.
  It also helps to know that this is a stressful and embarrassing time for your child.
  Knowing this you as a parent, need to do everything you can to make it easier on them which include not allowing yourself to be stressed.
  There are some decisions that you can make ahead of time, which will allow you to focus more on potty training than be stressed.
Decide if you are going to use a baby potty chair or the toilet.
  There are advantages and disadvantages to both.
  You should pick one that you feel most comfortable with, one that you can easily enforce wherever you are and one that is easily accepted by everyone who will be assisting in the potty training arena.
Determine if you are going to use pull-ups or not.
  Like a potty chair, there are advantages and disadvantages to pull-ups.
  From personal experience, pull-ups work great at night but during the day, children can confuse them with diapers.
  Nevertheless, making this decision ahead of time will help lessen your stress level.
One of the biggies with child potty training is wearing appropriate clothes.
  Putting your child in clothes that he cannot get off easily is a big no-no.
  You should dress him in comfortable clothes that are easy for him to get off quickly everyday.
  The quickly part comes into play when he held it too long and is running to get to the toilet.
  This type of clothing is necessary until your child is comfortably potty trained.
You should discuss with everyone involved with potty training how rewards will work.
  If your reward system is different from your husbands or anyone else who is helping, it will become frustrating and stressful.
  Ensure everyone is on the same page-even if it means no rewards at all.
One of the other big one is to start potty training your child at the right time and not too early.
  Many parents get excited about potty training and begin before a child is developmentally ready.
  If you child does not know ahead of time that they have to potty, they cannot be forced to learn this as it is developmental.
Child potty training will be work on both you and your child.
  Preparing ahead of time and focusing all of your efforts on making it easy for her will help to make the process much easier.
  It will lessen the stress that each of you feels and will provide for more bonding time.
  Enjoy this stage in your child's life; it only happens once.
