Introduction: Independence in going to toilet, controlling urination and bowel movements, is one of the most important developmental stages for children and an important educational process for parents. The purpose of this study was to examine the experiences of mothers with the training of dry and urinary control in toddlers.
Method: In this qualitative research (1397), 26 mothers with a child aged 3 to 5 years were enrolled using purposeful sampling with maximum variation. For collecting data, semi structured interviews and open-ended responses to mother's experiences of toilet training were used. The research environment was proportional to the qualitative research, the building of the health center. Interviews were recorded, handwritten and analyzed according to the method of "Content Quality Analysis".
Results: The age range for mothers to start toilet training was two years and one month.
The decision to start toilet training has been on the advice of people around you or by finding out about the signs of being ready for children. The procedures used in the pediatric urinary training were "spoken and persuaded, repeated reminders, encouragement, punishment, and the use of various teaching aids." Fear of toilet, stinging with parents, fear of the appearance of urine and feces were among other things that the participants referred to.
Conclusion: This study made it possible to gain a better understanding of the experiences of mothers in toilet training. The dominant or prominent pattern in teaching children was not identified. It seems that all mothers need education about toilet training for their children.
