073 - Is your child ready for potty training? with Drs. Jack Herrin & Janys Lim
About this episode
Is your child ready to be potty trained? Do we even need to wait for readiness, or can anyone really potty train at any time and have it over and done with in 30 days or less?
In this episode, you’ll hear from trusted developmental pediatricians Dr. Janys Lim from Ontario, Canada, and Dr. Jack Herrin from Manila, Philippines.
We'll tackle questions such as:
- Is there one right way to potty train (like many on the internet claim)?
- What influences when and how we potty train?
- What are the signs that your child is ready to be potty trained?
- What are signs that you may need to wait?
After listening to this episode, you'll be able to remove a lot of the stress, guilt, and pressure around potty training!
