Thank you for this video. My son just turned 3 and is nonverbal. Potty training has been a STRUGGLE. He is one of those kids that won't go when you put him on the potty, and will go as soon as a clean pull up is on. 😔 I'm going to try some of these tips soon. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏾
I am a new subscriber and I am very glad that I found you and your family. Our youngest son is on the spectrum but he has also a big development delay. He is 5 and nonverbal. We are starting potty training now but we want to take it slowly. Thank you much for sharing your experience and tips. Greetings from Portugal
My son is 3 and is mostly non-verbal. We've been struggling for 6 months since he started showing interest in the bathroom but he just doesn't understand the concept. Every bit of advice or article I read was for kids that already communicate so I was feeling discouraged until I came across your videos. We will definitely be trying everything you suggested!
Thank u for the video. I’m beginning stages of potty training my son who is diagnosed with autism. The video gave a starting point. Nobody gets anywhere in life w/o help from someone else.
Emotions poster i got from Amazon. I have it linked in the description box. The picture prompts I made myself. I printed out the image and laminated it
We are starting today my son is 3 non verbal but seems to be able to pick up routines ok.. of course he never likes them at first so we are nervous… we are thinking about sitting him down every hour to try to go…. Being non verbal how does your son let you know when he has to go?
My 3.9 years old son stim a lot and is quite hyperactive though he has brilliant eye contact. The only thing that worries me the most is that he still pee and poo in his pants. Hope what you said will work with my son too
my daughter is like cristine like she also love strings play with my hairs but one thing now a days she is being so short tempered she get frustrated with anything she dnt like or out of routine things that make me so depressed
I think that’s normal. My son has days where he is happy and laughing and joyful and then he’ll have days like today where he cries if I hug him gives me pouts for no reason and seems anxious. Stay positive and things will look up 💙
I have a question My Don is 4 yrs old I’ve been potty training him month ago he was peeing in the toilet but now he is holding on when I put his underwear on he pees and takes it off and wants to sit on the bathroom again I think he’s getting confused 🤷♀️ What can I do ? He’s fine sitting on the toilet 🚽 flush it washing and drying his hand but he is holding the pee until I put underwear or until he can hold it
Is there a reward for peeing in the toilet (iPad, candy,favorite toy?) Potty regression can be hard. I understand that struggle! 😞 Sometimes having a visual about the potty steps helps as well
@@ROCKNSTIMS like i paste pictures in washroom ,in suers i remove daipers for day time nd took him to wash room again nd again...bt he never pee or poo in toilet he sit for long time bt hold his pee nd do it in room or sofa quickly cmng back from washroom...em much worried he is 5 now i feel like he has no sense about wetness
Has he ever had a successful void in the toilet? If he has do you give him a highly preferred reinforcer? Like food/toy only when he goes in the toilet?
@@ROCKNSTIMS he never do it i took him to washroom daily in the morning bt he never do it in toilet rather hold pee nd do quickly after cmng out much woried:(
Rocking The Spectrum how old is now is he fully train? Thinking doing this with my son I think you right about whole routine. My son is non verbal too. He hate being in dirty nappy so thinking this may he good time use toilet rather then potty. Daughter is nearly there. This mummy need sleep zzzz
Rocking The Spectrum that good, we don’t do ABA here it something UK dint do much and private. Through I think we are thinking about it as I know parents who had success.
Every child is different. I looked for potty cues liked staying dry. My son didn’t show a lot of signs but he still benefited from having a routine and little by little we were able to get more voids in the toilet
I love your videos, helps me feel like I’m not alone in this journey ❤️ my son is 3 and was recently diagnosed in the beginning of this year, he is non verbal. I have not yet started potty training him but I do want to start soon, I just don’t know if he’s ready. I don’t take him to ABA since it’s not covered by Medicaid in my area and I can’t afford it 😕 I have no idea where to start but your video was so informative I will definitely give these tips a try 😊
Thank you for your comment! A lot of states offer potty training classes for free or for a small fee. I would google autism potty class in my state and attend one if possible. They are often taught by a bcba(board certified behavioral analyst) I went to one that was very informative and a lot of the bcba’s will do a home visit to assist you in training ! It also helps to play videos or read books about using the potty. Write down how often your child is wetting their diaper so you get an idea if they are able to keep a diaper dry for a good amount of time. 💙
My son will be 3 april 9th and hes been taking his diaper off every chance he gets we have to keep onsies and footie pajamas to avoid that but im so nervous to start training lat time we put him om a potty he screamed
I absolutely love your videos! Youre super patient, kind, and informative. Its very hard for me and my son with potty-training. Hes 5 and non-verbal but were working on it and this way super helpful 👍🏼
I absolutely love this! I feel like our sons are identical! The playfulness and the smiles you give him I love it!

Where can I find picture prompts like the one you have in the restroom and your emotions poster?

My son still has that problem too but it definitely helps to have a routine down 💙
With developmentally delyayed kids, consistency is key
Love your videos.
Love you all 💖

My son is 5 year old bt he never pee or poo in toilet i tried many times he hold pee nd do it after cmng back from toilet dnt knw what to do :((
Can you tell me a bit about what you have tried in regards to potty training? Does he have a routine in place ?

How old was he when you started? I am new here. My son is nearly four. His sister potty training. Great video. Teeth cleaning oh my he hate it
Hello 👋 my son was 3 when we started potty training 😊
Rocking The Spectrum how old is now is he fully train? Thinking doing this with my son I think you right about whole routine. My son is non verbal too. He hate being in dirty nappy so thinking this may he good time use toilet rather then potty. Daughter is nearly there. This mummy need sleep zzzz
He became fully potty trained at 5 years old. He is 6 years old now
Rocking The Spectrum that good, we don’t do ABA here it something UK dint do much and private. Through I think we are thinking about it as I know parents who had success.
That’s sad to hear, We have had great experiences with ABA I wish it was more readily available to families 😔💙
What's the right age to start training?
Every child is different. I looked for potty cues liked staying dry. My son didn’t show a lot of signs but he still benefited from having a routine and little by little we were able to get more voids in the toilet

Rocking The Spectrum thank you so much for replying I will definitely look into those classes, and thank you for the tips. Wish me luck lol 💙🤞🏼
What age did u start potty training
I really started when he turned 3 but it’s different for every child. I looked for cues like staying dry for long periods of time and potty dances.
My son will be 3 april 9th and hes been taking his diaper off every chance he gets we have to keep onsies and footie pajamas to avoid that but im so nervous to start training lat time we put him om a potty he screamed
How does he do with you talking about potty or watching videos about potty?
Hes non verbal and doesnt understand it
He can sign for want and more
I absolutely love your videos! Youre super patient, kind, and informative. Its very hard for me and my son with potty-training. Hes 5 and non-verbal but were working on it and this way super helpful 👍🏼
Happy you found it helpful 💙💙
