Has anyone used the Weeman?

Google "weeman toilet training" and it's an aussie site.

I'm thinking the novelty of it might help us with our weeing problems, but wondered if anyone else has used it this early on in toilet training?

Anyone?

Perhaps I need to get one and I'll be the first to review it here on BB! hehe

Hi there,
I have not used one but i did google it, I wouldnt use one, I have 2 boys that are TT and i cant see where i would have used this. My ds2 is 3 yrs old and he still sits on the toilet. he uses a stool to get up there and when the time comes when he says he wants to stand up ( he has tried before) he can just stand on the stool and will be tall enough. HTH its just my opinion.

thanks Krissy. I do have one friend who used it for their son, and they said it worked well, but I think he was a bit older and already pretty much trained, but it was used just to teach him to stand & wee.

Right now he climbs up onto the loo. We have a step & seat thing that we use. But it takes him so long to climb up and turn around that it's not really that great for teaching him to get himself up on the loo, and in time! Which is why I wondered if the novelty of being able to run up to the loo and stand there and wee might work.

Liz, we have one, and DS1 has used it a couple of times when he decided he wanted to wee standing up like daddy. But after that he went back to wanting to sit so it's not been used since!

Liz I see what you mean, if it is taking him too long and you think it would work better for him, then go for it! they are all so different arnt they, good luck

My sister used one and found that her DS wanted to empty it into the bowl and would do it too fast and make a wee fountain all over the place lol
Not nice to clean up

i havent used one but have looked at them in the shops as a possibility for my little man when he is ready to stand and pee, but i was also thinking maybe you could buy a cheap plastic jug to hook on the side of the loo too just to see whether buying the weeman would be a good idea or not

I haven't used one but I also am considering buying one, my sons TT and wont sit on the toilet he's not tall enough to pee directly into the bowl and the stool is proving to be very painful! I'd see how he prefers to go, if he's sitting down I wouldn't bother but my little one will only go standing!
Best of Luck with the TT!!!!
