Traveling with toddlers & potty training?




wrknhrdngt


I've heard that there's a website that lists travel destinations that are good for families with kids, rates them on the availability and accessibility to restrooms. We just spent a week traveling with a potty-training 2-year old and had an awful time finding open public restrooms and businesses (other than restaurants) that would let us use their restrooms--even when we were clearly getting ready to buy merchandise. Has anyone else heard of this site? I can't remember who sponsors it. Thanks!

from what I am finding for toddlers or potty training the all inclusive places are best because it's already all paid for you can use whatever restroom is close by and not have to worry about having to purchase something from a merchant on Rodeo drive because your child needs to pee!

I need advice about traveling with a potty training toddler.....?

My son is 3 and is doing really well with potty training. This Friday, we will be flying cross-country (4 hours in the air). I don't know what to do with the whole potty training thing while flying. We won't be able to get up every 30 minutes to go to the bathroom. Should I just put him back in a Pull-up or deal with the accidents we may have with him in regular underwear?


Answer
With my son, I would notice changes in his behaviour when he needed to go to the bathroom...even when he wasn't potty trained. He would fidget a little more. I would put him in the pull ups but explain to him that it doesn't mean he can just go poop or pee in them, they are just like underwear but just while they are on the plane. Try taking him before you get on the plane and say "let's just try to go pee or poop before we get on the plane". Give them credit, they understand alot more than we think sometimes. Once you get on the plane, try again before you get into your seat. Try him about 15-20 minutes after he's had something to drink. I'm sure there's no problem you taking him a little more often than the average person goes to the washroom during a flight. buy or bring his potty cover so that you can place it on top of the seat to make it easier. Best of luck to you, hope it all works out.
