Early potty training refers to a potty training program that is begun before a child is two years old. Advocates of early potty training or infant potty training believe a child can begin potty training much younger than we originally thought, some as early as birth.

The Theory

In early potty training, the parents have to be very vigilant and watch their child for signs that he is about to relieve himself. When the baby looks like he needs to potty, parents rush the child to a potty chair. The theory is that by repeating this over and over, the child learns at a early age to associate the potty chair with going potty and becomes potty trained faster.

The Opposing View

Research has shown and most experts agree that a child’s neurological development progresses at certain intervals. Before a child can be completely potty trained, the neural pathway that carries the signal from the bladder to the brain that it is full must be in place. This takes place around two years of age. Until that time, the bladder will continue to empty itself when it is full.

Opponents of early potty training liken it to attempting to teach a child to walk at birth. The child has not reached the level of development necessary to do that. So in early potty training, it is mostly the parents that are trained. Successes then become a matter of averages. If you put a child on a potty chair long enough and often enough, you will occasionally be successful.

Is This Potty Training?

That is the burning question. Can a child who is incapable of understanding, much less controlling bowel and bladder signals truly be potty trained?

Whenever you buy a car seat for your child, you should always make sure you stay abreast of all the product recalls that may come up later. You can do this by tuning into the news frequently, or better yet, by visiting websites that will let you know when car seat recalls are in effect.

But what should you do if the frightening happens, and your child’s car seat is recalled?

The first step is to call the toll-free number or visit the website for the recalled seat. In all likelihood, the manufacturer will have a section or a phone line devoted strictly to the recall.

You can be sure that whenever there’s a recall, car seat companies won’t dawdle. They’re going to want to make sure your child is safe. Be sure to follow the instructions you get from the website or the phone line.

Be sure to have your child’s cat seat on hand when you call or visit the website. It’s possible you’ll need the model name or the serial number–you can usually find the model name in the instruction manual.

You will probably be advised to keep using the car seat until you receive your repair kit. In almost all cases, it is much safer for your child to be in a recalled car seat than it is for your child to ride in a car with no safety restraints at all.

Here’s another way to stay on top of car seat recalls: Whenever you buy a car seat for your child, register it with the manufacturer. Like many products, all car seats come with a registration card.

Of course, people usually toss them out. But in this case, it’s important to register your car seat so that the company can contact you.

There’s no guarantee that the company won’t use your address for annoying advertisements, but at least you have the assurance of knowing you’ll be contacted if there’s a recall.

However, a car seat isn’t automatically bad just because of a car seat recall. There are always errors in manufacturing, and when these errors occur in a car seat, the company acts quickly to fix the problem.

If you have any concerns after a car seat recall, call the company and talk to someone. They will probably be able to put your mind at ease and give advice on what to do.
