How long does it take for the baby to pee or poop after being fed? I want to use this as a potty training doll, but is there a time lag before it comes out or is it instant?

I'd be sure to have a diaper on her as it's real quick. Here's a tip I found on Pinterest: use a paste of baking soda and food coloring (we like green) for "food" because there were several complaints about the food mix in the set getting clogged up the tube and getting smelly. I tried it once but I think the food mix was easier to feed....maybe my paste was too watery. Hope this helps

I have a pom and she uses it 2-3 times before we change it. Strangely she won't poop on it, she poops on a rug nearby and we pick it up with a tissue. TG she has firm stool. lol

I wouldnt recommend it before 1 month. I started using it at about 1 month. I needed to watch him closely because he didn't have head control and would slump to the side occasionally. At 1 month he wasn't focusing on the toys so I didn't put those on at that time. He loved the vibrations early on! Now he is 4 months and loves the toys. I hook other toys on for variety.

You just turn it on and wait, like any thermometer, and insert it in the baby's bum. Some people suggest putting Vaseline on the thermometer but I've never needed to do that. My child acts like I'm not even doing anything. I was concerned that a rectal read would be uncomfortable for a baby but apparently not. Also, fun fact, if your child is constipated, you can take a rectal temp using Vaseline and gently wiggle it (the baby still acts like nothing is happening) and sometimes that will produce a bowel movement.

I personally haven't had issues cleaning up solid poop with the Freetime diapers. In fact, they are my go to overnight diaper because they can take the challenge with no leaks. Diaper sprays are most helpful AFTER baby has started eating solid foods but while just drinking milk/formula it's not necessary. The best way to deal with the flaps is to place them the same way every time. For example: the front flap (the one that is sewn near the belly button) I place down first. Then I place the rear flap (the one sewn at the buttocks) over it. This gives a solid surface which is easy for wiping. If you place the flaps the other way it makes cleaning poop off hard because its on both flaps instead of just one. Free times are definitely worth the try. Don't let a few inexperienced folks scare you away from them. There isn't a problem when the flaps are properly placed.

I think it depends on the personality of child whether they will sit there or not. I used it up until 8 or 9 months because I would put him in it only to wash him and then take him out and let him play in the tub. It was just easier for me to have him in the seat to wash him. Then I could just help hold him as needed while he was playing. I hope that helps!

Once you have opened the bottle, it must be used within a hour. Do not use it after an hour, it is no longer good for use and will not be good for your baby's tummy. Just like cow's milk begins to expire after so long, so does ready to feed baby formula. It will begin to sour and will no longer be safe to feed your baby after an hour. So with that being said, you may refrigerate the milk in between uses, if the baby doesn't drink it all at one time... but after an hour has passed upon you opening the seal of the ready to feed bottle, I advise you to discard it and open up a fresh one. But in my opinion, I would not use these bottles if your baby doesn'tnot drink 2 oz quite yet. I would purchase the powder formula so that you can control how much you make. Though these bottles are convenient, our babies don't always drink it all in one sitting and by the time they want more milk, the bottle we opened before will be no good. Just telling you from my own personal experience. The powder formula comes with a scoop and it gives you more control over how much you make for a feeding. This is especially convenient when you begin to learn your baby's eating patterns.

Hello, the potty is small. My 3 year old barely fits it and has to sit in the exact same position in order for him to not "miss" the target. I believe it was made for toddlers only.

They have to suck to get the liquid. It frustrates my 18 month old to no end. It was easy to clean. I ended up buying a straw sippy cup (those are not fun to clean).

It's actually a little hard to clean the poop, best to wait until dry. The pee tends to filter thru the tray. I just took everything outside and sprayed with the house. We only used it a couple months due to how challenging the cleaning was... But it works, it's a good product.

We didn't really have a stool problem. Our dog had major gas issues. But I bet we saw a difference within 1 or 2 days. We used it every time we fed him which was twice a day.

its not the best for removing repeatedly, and yes, it does drip pee sometimes when you move it. i had a toilet dedicated for this, and every other day or so just rinsed it in the tub. a pain, but works great overall. very comfortable for the kiddo, and stays in place and the handles and the step made it super easy for your child to climb up on themselves. i would still recommend it despite the pain of cleaning.

Hi Stacy. Any updates on your little guy with this potty? My cat is the same way, and I'm thinking about getting one of the grass potty for her.

I would for sure make sure everything had dried properly. If not there can be a clog. And make sure the arrows match up it they aren't the release won't be proper.. that's my only advice or call the company. My daughter is growing gaining weight and having normal stools. Had it over 2months without any constancy issues.

I'm not sure since my dog was able to get out of the diaper in about 2 seconds flat. We didn't find the diaper useful. Her problem wasn't pooping in the house anyway, it was sneaking upstairs and peeing on the bathroom rug.

I only used formula with it. It always worked fine. After about 3 or 4 weeks it is time for a new one. But it is intended for a one time use, so 3 or 4 weeks of use is not too bad. My baby used it all the entire time she was breastfeeding.
