Guest guest Posted May 26, 2003 Report Share Posted May 26, 2003 This is one place I've heard of for larger sizes and they deliver. http://www.absorbentsolutions.com/ Re: [Potty Training > My daughter is 5 1/2 and still not potty trained. She is autistic and extremely sensitive to sensory things like smells, touch, etc... Getting her to go INTO the bathroom was a major accomplishment for us. She always plugged her ears and was terrified of the sounds of running water, flushing toilets, and so forth. Now after years of therapy she is doing so much better but we still can't get her potty trained. Can anyone help? She weighs 78 pounds so she is not your typical sized 5 year old. We are on the LAST size of pull ups which are the GOODNITES bed wetting things. The psychiatrist keeps telling us that she will be ready by the age of 7! What will she wear by then? Help! Any suggestions? We live in the Lubbock area. Everyone just keeps telling us to be patient. The school here tried all year but she still did not meet that goal. > > Corina > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 There is a wonderful company called HDIS that sells all sorts of supplies for people who are incontinent. My daughter was also slow to be toilet trained and I found this place to be a life saver.

Wow this is awesome My daughter is 7 now she was nearly 7 when she was potty trained my other child was potty trained at 6. Last year I knew nothing of a company like this my children were in night time potty pants because they are the biggest ones and they barely fit when they finally mastered potty training. I am so glad to be over that hump. Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 Hi, My son was diagnosed at 2 1/2 with PDD and placed at the moderate to severe range on the CARS scale. My wife potty trained my son for No. 1 in about a month and for No. 2 in about 6 months starting at age 3 through 3 1/2. She used ABA- positive reinforcement. She gave him a lot of juice all day and then would MAKE him sit on the potty every 15 minutes FOR A FEW MINUTES at a time. Then when he did go potty,... MASSIVE positive reinforcement, ...yoohooooing, clapping, dancing and smiling and singing. No. 2 took longer but we used the same techniques, MAKE them go sit often, for a few minutes at a time and then massive positive reinforcement when they went. Also, she we kept books and toys by the potty to keep him from fussing while he sat on the potty. All in all, my wife did a really good job considering his abilities at the time. Hope this helps. J.
