In daily life, it is common to hear some mothers complain that their children always wet the bed and cannot control their urination and defecation. After reaching a certain stage, children can master urination and defecation well through exercise, and they have strong self-control. So, how to teach a 2-year-old baby who can't control their urination and defecation? This is something many mothers are eager to learn.
How to teach a 2-year-old baby who cannot control urination and defecation
1. Train children's bowel movements in daily life
Parents should train their children on the regularity of urination and defecation around the age of two. You can control your child's water intake before bedtime, or set an alarm at night to wake them up for urination. Over time, a benign urinary reflex may form. This can help children get rid of diapers and find a normal bowel movement lifestyle.
2. Psychological guidance for children
Some children have not developed the habit and ability to control urination since childhood. As soon as they wet the bed, they are scolded, beaten, and scolded by their parents. They are in a state of excessive tension for a long time, and always feel anxious before going to bed every night, afraid of wetting the bed again, which leads to inferiority complex and causes bedwetting to persist for a long time.
The optimal age to teach babies how to control urination and defecation
Toilet training should be conducted between the ages of two and a half for babies. Because before this, babies were unable to control intestinal peristalsis and the sphincter responsible for excretion, and the central nervous system was not fully developed, but each baby's specific situation was different, so there was no fixed optimal timing. Training can only be twice as effective when the baby is willing and actively cooperates with adults.
Learning to control one's own urination and defecation is a stage that babies must go through during their growth process. Mothers can help their children develop this skill. During the training process, parents should not be too anxious and should master certain methods and techniques. If you are in a hurry to achieve success and see that your baby is not performing well, you will punish them, but it will not achieve good results.
