Publisher's Summary

Let Jamie Glowacki show you how potty training is done. Her six-step, proven process to get your toddler out of diapers and onto the toilet has already worked for 10s of thousands of kids and their parents.

Here's the good news: your child is probably ready to be potty trained earlier than you think (ideally, between 20 - 30 months), and it can be done faster than you expect. If you've ever said to yourself:

  • How do I know if my kid is ready?
  • Why won't my child poop in the potty?
  • How do I avoid "potty power struggles"?
  • How can I get their daycare provider on board?
  • My kid was doing so well - why is he regressing?
  • And what about nighttime?!

Oh Crap! Potty Training can solve all of these (and other) common issues. This isn't theory, you're not bribing with candy, and there are no gimmicks. This is real-world, from-the-trenches potty training information - all the questions and all the answers you need to do it once and be done with diapers for good.

Skip it

I’m sure the “method” works. The other themselves states there is no real method, but I’ve heard it works.
However, this person is not a formal expert. She spends at least three chapters going off about how lazy parents potty train after 2.5 and that waiting for them to be ready is a myth. She even touches on breastfeeding as other parenting topics with a ton of criticism. She is a self proclaimed “expert” and wildly judgemental at best.
Wish I didn’t waste a credit.

zero stars isnt possible so 1 it is

if you want to be berated for like 3/4 chapters this is the book for you! if your kids 3 apparently your to late and it's going to be impossible. oh and your a terrible person and parent and lazy for not doing it properly on your other attempts. working parent? low income? to bad you have to completely stop working for a few days or WHY DID YOU EVEN HAVE KIDS. the author isnt funny like she wishes to think, it's not harsh reality, it's just a rude person writting a book to bash gentle parenting for 3 chapters. Her methods might work but I'm not about the shitty attitude towards parents and their kids, it's weird af.

A must for potty training!

This book provides a very easy to follow guide to potty training with a gentle approach and plenty of options based on the child's age.

great method

This helped us get our twins potty trained. One took to the method right away and the other took considerable time but I felt the method helped both - one of my kids (boy) needed extra time because he just couldn't feel his body when he had to go.

Potty pro in a weekend

I was still feeling nervous about potty training my son because the last time I tried he would run away screaming in tears at the tiniest mention of potty. Using glowacki’s method I felt confident and empowered to get it done this time. I started on a Saturday morning and it’s now Tuesday night. Little man pees and poos without any help, he goes all on his own and hardly needs any prodding at all. He wipes his tushie and I can tell feels so much like a big boy. No treats or candies to con him into doing it, just praise when he does a good job. I’ve used exactly one paper towel to clean up a partial floor pee, which he held and then ran to the potty right after it started and one sheet change when he stayed in bed late one morning. I’M THRILLED to say the least! Make this program work for you, remember she says in the book that it’s just a guide and you will find your diaper freedom.

My only complaint is that now my child loves to run the house completely naked due to block one... but I’m totally okay with that.

Great for first time parents

I enjoyed this book, it helped me as a first time parent get over the nervousness of potty training and how to approach it. I recommend it to any first time parent who needs tips and an idea on how to get potty training started!

Incoherent digressions of opinionated garble. It's crap all right

She takes 8 hours to say what could be said in 5 minutes. Goes on constant tangents about how amazing she is or how the Paleo diet works for her and other unrelated topics. She says basically the same thing as the other, shorter, better best seller on potty training, except Jamie opts for punishing your child in illogical ways rather than using rewards.

Awesome book, currently trying to potty train a 19 month old baby

The chapters are glitched since if you want chapter 10 - you need to tap on chapter 11 . But the book seems good. Let’s see how it goes with my 19month old
