Getting your baby to stop using diapers is a stage that usually causes a lot of stress for parents – especially the new ones – but also for the baby, as we are interfering with their routine and changing their habits. <\/span><\/p>\n

Generally speaking, between the ages of one and a half and three years old, the child is required to change or eliminate many of his\/ her habits, such as breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pacifier use, eating, etc., so they have to change several of their habits in a short period of time, and this is something that can cause stress and tension.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For this reason, we should make sure that we are as helpful and supportive as possible and listen to our baby’s needs first and foremost, without pushing them too hard. The ideal age at which your baby can slowly stop using nappies is considered to be two years and older.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, there are cases of babies who have stopped using them earlier, but this is the exception rather than the rule. In any case, such examples of babies in your social circle should not make you anxious, as every baby has its unique growth and adaptation timeline.<\/span><\/p>\n

1st rule: Patience & resistance to setbacks!<\/b><\/p>\n

A very basic rule of thumb regarding overall habits and parenting of children is not to set a double standard, i.e. not to return to habits that we have already overcome because we may have a difficulty at some stage of our efforts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the vast majority of cases, this setback is due to the parents’ insecurity rather than to the child and their needs. So, it is important to feel confident with your choices and stick to them, after following the instructions of the pediatrician, obviously.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The child is able to sense your confidence and certainty and gain security in order to move on to the next stages of their development.<\/span><\/p>\n
