If your child is ready to be potty trained this book WILL work!!!!!,
By
This review is from: Potty Training In One Week (Paperback)
I bought this book when my daughter was 2, and I felt under pressure (from other mums) to start potty training. Using Gina Ford's easy to understand criteria, it was clear that she was no where near ready to potty train. When she was 2 and a quarter we looked at the book again and I gave it a go. In 3 days we were both totally stressed out and I decided it was time to go back to nappies. 6 weeks ago (aged 2yrs 9 months), she fulfilled all the criteria - following the instructions in the book she was completey dry in 4 days (has had two accidents since then) and completely clean in 3 weeks. This book does work BUT it's crucial to follow Gina Ford's guidance on "readiness" (can they tell wet from dry, can they dress and undress themselves without your help, can they follow simple instructions). If your child isn't ready, it will take much longer than a week.... oh, and YOU have to be ready too!!!!!!

Thank God For Gina Ford !!!,
This review is from: Potty Training in One Week (Making parenting easier) (Paperback)
I was at my wits end about potty training. My son was 3yrs old and was not at all interested in the potty. I tried all the tips the Health Visitor gave me, leave the potty for him to get used to, don't pressure him, let him do it in his own time. That's all very well, but when your son is about to start Pre-School and they won't accept him unless he is clean, you start to panic. And i did ! Then i happened to spot a book in a leaflet "Potty Training In One Week by Gina Ford". I was sceptical but desperate to try anything that might possibly work. I read the book in the evening when the children were in bed, and then resolved to embark on Stage Two the following day. That was a week ago now. And at the end of day two we had no accidents and he was fully clean during the day. And as from day five he is now dry at night time. I am amazed with this book and would strongly recommend anyone to try it. In fact, I think this book should be given out by all Health Visitors and available on the NHS !!!! Thank You Gina Ford you have made a stressed out mum in Swindon a very happy, proud and contented one.

It worked!,

This review is from: Potty Training in One Week (Making parenting easier) (Paperback)
My son didn't show any interest in potty training for ages but by the time he reached 3yrs old I decided it was about time to have a go at the potty training 'thing'. Hubby & I had used the 'contented baby book' so already knew of Gina Ford & decided to give this a try.I was close to giving up by day three - but stuck to it & by the end of the week son was indeed potty trained (to the amazement of friends). I found anecdotes of 'how it can be got right even when it seems to be all wrong' reassuring & son loved use of sticker chart & showing daddy how well he'd done by the end of each day. Best advice (along with Gina's other books) - don't get too uptight about following every little detail (or too worried when offspring won't follow every detail!), but Gina's basic principles seem to work very well......
