His... anatomy makes it necessary for some help from his hands. He'd probably do well standing up but I'm just not willing to live through the process of learning how to aim! He's aiming this way, anyway, so I guess it doesn't even really matter. 808love on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-459656 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 01:38:03 +0000 808love 459656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Soo funny!!

Um, I've somehow not called it anything? Girly parts? That's what I say...

They have asked if girls pee out of their bums since they don't have a penis. I said no they just have another hole in the front. We didn't really get into what a vagina is yet since all they are really interested in is how girls pee and poop. I told them the word urethra and they just ignored it and said sister has holes. mrbee on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-459582 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 23:00:17 +0000 mrbee 459582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @mrs. wagon: Charlie uses the toilet to pee, and leans forward onto his hands so that everything is pointing down.

DS says his "boy parts", for awhile he would say winky instead. When I change DD's diaper he says "don't forget to clean her girl parts" so that just what we're sticking to until they are older.

PENIS DOWN!! hahaha. yeah, you don't really have reference anything when potty training a girl! err, aim your pee hole down?? haha, naaaah. @Mrs. Bee: Charlie and peanuts?? That could not be more perfect. mrs. wagon on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458444 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 12:35:35 +0000 mrs. wagon 458444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Pen: and/or when he starts calling me mom instead of mommy. TEAR! mrs. wagon on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458443 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 12:35:18 +0000 mrs. wagon 458443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Pen: yeah. Very typical story of starting out meaning well and ending up doing the very thing you didn't wanna do. 2 year olds tend to yell and repeat things a lot, and I didn't want him to be screaming "PENIS DOWN!" through the mall and stuff. At least when he refers to his wee-wee, it's cute. He's always like "look at my wee-wee, mommy" which I tell him immediately not to do but at least I can kind of giggle at it. If he were to say "look at my penis, mommy" I'd just feel a little weird. He's still a baby to me. ;) I'll teach him to refer to it as penis once he's older. Maybe when he starts having health classes in school.

I was thinking I'd use penis, but I just couldn't say the word penis that many times in one day. To my 2 year old's face. Especially since most of the time you're yelling or sing-songing it. "PUSH YOUR PENIS DOWN!!!!" "Don't forget to push your penis down, buddy!" "PUSH YOUR PENIS DOWN! PENIS DOWN! PENIS DOWNNNN!!!" brownie on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458366 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:56:21 +0000 brownie 458366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Peeny and Butt. But he doesn't call them anything. We call it that. He can point to all of his body parts but the only one he has said is "no" for nose.

That's hilarious :) DD is only 4months so this isn't an issue yet. But I think we'll use the French words "zezette" for girl parts and "zizi" for boy parts even when speaking English...

So true too! It's definitely still more comfortable for me to say privates lol DS can't talk yet but interesting discussion... I suppose we'll just try to stick with penis even though wee wee is probably what I might have used lol!! purrpletulips on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458268 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:20:38 +0000 purrpletulips 458268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When DD started potty training, I tried calling her girl parts "front" and butt "back" but DH decided it should be called her "who-ha" however DD refers to it as her "ah-ha". Her butt is butt.

We're working on it. She can't say "va" for some reason so the closest she's gotten is "gina".

My niece calls her whole lower half her "butt". So she'll tell my SIL that she's changing her butt when shes getting a diaper change lol Mrsbells on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458218 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:08:14 +0000 Mrsbells 458218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I will just tell her to call it her private part til she is olde.r I dont want her yelling vagina out at the wrong time. Plus little girls dont even know much or "use" their vagina. Most kids want to know where they pee from and So if I was gonna be technical I would have to explain all the parts which is too much for a little girl to grasp. mrs. wagon on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458196 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:03:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 458196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ haha!!! Wagon Jr. calls it his "weewee" and butt is "bum". Necessary to decide on what to call them when you start potty training...!! Especially with a boy who has to push his penis down when he pees. mrbee on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458193 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:03:30 +0000 mrbee 458193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Watch out, those childhood names can stick!! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGol5n1YT4w" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGol5n1YT4w</a> Andrea on "How do your LOs describe their private parts?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-your-los-describe-their-private-parts#post-458185 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:01:14 +0000 Andrea 458185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @meredithNYC: peek-a-boo is so creepy!

Right now LO is too little to call it anything, but like you I am going to encourage "vagina" since I think the euphemisms some people use are kind of creepy (I am thinking of my grandmother who called it a "peek-a-boo"... gross).
