[blParent] Toilet training

Right. We were able to wipe our kids as they sat on the potty. Sitting will expose all the cracks and crevices that need to be cleaned well.

> Hi,
I have a 5 year old girl and a recently potty trained 3-year-old boy.

Prior to training my first I was anxious about how it would go, and how 
I would handle poop messes that weren't contained on the change table. 
As it turns out, it is way easier to wipe a bum when the poop hasn't 
been mashed around in a diaper for a few minutes!

My daughter trained really easily. I think maybe only 1 or 2 poop minor 
poop accidents.

With my son, I think we maybe started him before he was ready. It is 
pretty tough to deal with poop-filled underwear, whether you can see or 
not. We backed off with him, and in a few months a switch went off and 
he trained himself.

A helpful suggestion my mom made was to have my kids bend over the tub 
while I wipe them after a poop. It's nice to keep them standing still, 
bent over, and not touching the toilet.
I'd also recommend waiting until you are sure your child is ready. Be 
excited, be very excited. I am a very happy father, do be done with diapers.

Oh, one more thing. I keep some baby wipes on top of my toilet for the 
messier poops.
Good luck.
Keith
