adamsmum Report post Posted January 25, 2006 We wont to take Adam out of nappys in the summer. Adam use to sit on a potty but not the loo. T potty is now to small for him he's nearly 7. Is their some place i could buy a bigger one. Someone must have thought to make them. or is there something like a potty i could use. We are getting desperate now to sort this out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elouise Report post Posted January 25, 2006 You could try and see if an occupational therapist could asses him and see if you get get such an item on loan from the disability services. Might be worth asking any of the parent groups who also have paremnts of physically disabled kids if any have one thier kids have outgrown you could try (my areas local parental newsletter lists items for special needs kids that are outgrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynden Report post Posted January 25, 2006 We were told today that when it comes time to toilet train, we can get a rifton toilet chair from our OT department - it might be worthwhile trying them to see. Lynne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ceecee Report post Posted January 25, 2006 My n.t daughter used to have this potty that was basically a childs chair with the potty fitting into the middle.This was because she was too scared to sit on a little one.Trouble is i'm not sure where i bought it from now.
