A. potty training and toilet training should be initiated as soon as the child completes one and half years of age. avoid before that except if you feel that the child is giving cues when he or she wants to pass stool. also good demonstration has to be given again and again to the child to reinforce the habit. make the child sit on potty seat daily so that the child gets accustomed and not fearful of the seat and situation kindly go through various articles on potty training on firstcry. normally bedwetting is very common during the night time and the child is able to tell you regarding urination during the daytime. usually this problems improves with increasing age of the child and usually no medicines are given until and unless recommended by the doctor( you can easily wait for ten years of age of the child) usually treatment of medicines (if started) gives only symptomatic relief and the problem goes away only with increasing age with the strengthening of the muscles of the bladder which control the urination. steps decrease the amount of water intake just before going to bed and make the child pass urine before going to sleep. also you can wake up the child at around 2 o'clock 3 o'clock and make the the child pass urine. never criticize the child for this act because this will again aggravate the problem due to stress. meet your doctor who will tell you more regarding this
