She just take her pamper off and all her pooh in on the floor. After she finished then she tell me she had pooh. I'm getting very frustrarted because she goes potty but does'nt do anything.
Have you tried putting her diaper on backwards? It is harder for her to get the velcro tabs off. I know it is just a temporary fix, but I thought it might help anyway!
Completely lay off for about 2 months. You guys are probably in a power struggle. Go to www.3daypottytraining.com . We did her techniques and my son was completely potty and poo trained 100% day and night within 1 day of following their steps. We threw away the diapers on day 1 and have Never used anything but underwear since then.
Hello, I am right there with you, My daughter will be 3 in July and we are not potty trained either. She shows interest but doesn't go in there, she will go on the floor or in her underwear and then tell me it is gross. Sometimes she goes in there and sometimes she doesn't. Some tips I have gotten is put their underwear on and every time you even look at them make them go potty, try not to take them in public for a week or two while you are potty training (which is impossible for me) but if you do take them put underwear on them (bring an extra pair) and if they go then they sit in it until you get home. (or until you can change it)getting the plastic underwear covers helps. I give my daughter a little pez everytime she goes and we make a fun time of washing our hands and praising her. It is not easy because I am no where near there and I hope soon she will just show interest. Good luck!
Keep putting her on the potty. My daughter sat on the potty without doing anything for 2-3 months. And after that she went back and forth with the potty training. She stopped wanting to sit on it for a little bit cause she saw my frustration when she didn't go. Eventually they will go. If she would pooh in her diaper I would dump that into the big toilet so she could see that there is where it is supposed to go. I found it helpful to set a reminder alarm every 20-30 minutes and sit them on there. once my daughter was potty trained I had another baby and had to potty train her all over cause she went backwards:) Once she did actually do something on the potty I would clap and we would dance. After my 2nd child was born I ended up having to bribe her with chocolate. Sounds bad but I would give her 1 peanut M&M everytime she would put something in the potty. Good luck to you! Be pacient, sounds like your on the right track:)
At 2 1/2 years old, she shouldn't be doing this. Next time she takes her diaper off and lets the pooh fall in the floor, have her pick it up and go put it in the potty. Tell her that is where pooh goes and you're NOT going to pick i t up for her anymore. Hopefully this will be a visual for her and she'll be smart enough to know how to keep it off the floor. Take the diapers off and put her in training panties to make her feel like a "big girl" too.
I am going to take a totally different perspective on this than the other advice you have received.....
Your dd is showing you that she is already part way there in the learning to use the potty. (I hate the use of the word train.) She understands when she needs to go - or when she is going...Now you just need to get her to connect with pooh goes in the potty.
One of the things I don't see addressed a lot in parenting books is how children have bm....Usually you will hear potty learning parents frustrated b/c they find their child hiding behind furniture - squatted and going ....
The natural postion to have a bm is a squat...and most toilets don't allow one to position for the best voiding.....
I would suggest looking for one of the low potty chairs that put the child in more of a squat position. (Like Baby bjorn) If she is in a more 'natural' position her muscles in the pelvic area will be more likely to 'know' what to do.
I would really try to avoid anything punitive with her as you may end up going two steps backwards. (You could end up with her just holding it in and not going at all - which creates a whole other set of problems)
Hang in there...once she connects getting the pooh in the potty you will be well on your way!
What I did was put a potty chair in the roms you spend most of your time in and that way it would be easy for you to wach her closer. I found that it helped us our daughter is two. Good luck TS
hi iam a grandmom who watchs her 21/2year old and she does the seam thing.She was doing so well then she got sick and now we are back to square one.I just keep putting her on the pottymaybe she will start doin it again. good luck
1. Forget the whole thing for at least 1 month. Don't even mention it...and don't reply if she does.
2. When the weather gets nicer put her in cloth panties and only cloth - all the time. This is the only way she can feel when she's wet/soiled and she won't like it.
3. Get a book about potty training that is really encouraging to little girls. Praise efforts even if they are not successful. She wants to please you. When she fails, show her how to take care of her underwear and give her fresh.
You can get cloth panties at WalMart. You can do it!!! :)
I have a three year old daughter, and she was very difficult to potty train. One thing that really helped was "Elmos Potty Time". It's a video about going on the potty, and I used to allow my daughter to watch it in the living room, while she sat on her potty chair. She did eventually go, but she wanted to use the big potty, so I never had to clean her potty chair. I don't know if your daughter likes Elmo, but if so, I would give it a try. Good Luck!!
It just takes a lot of time to potty train I did 2 at a time One took off faster than the other they will catch on It seems that is all you are doing do it even when you go out in public just carry a lot of panties
potty training is hard but you can do it. Try and make it a game of sorts. If you get her interested you may get a better response out of her. I would put diaper on her and use safty pins so she cant take it off. My grandson is 3 and he still has problems. I had someone tell me once that if you wait untill the summer it is easier. It sounds to me like she is just not ready yet. Keep trying, if you give up she will to. GOOD LUCK
My son didn't do this started to pee gradually around 2 then really began to potty train around 3 now doing well, he loved to sit and pee in potty chair then he had to stand on big potty like daddy,it was the poopies he was afarid to go in the potty so he developed the sense of holding it in.We had to brib him with a sucker he had to sit down while holding it to poop then when he was done he ate it,or it was toy car's to play with books to look at something to distract him while he went it was a struggle but he finally did it and it became one of the biggest deal's.It didn't last but a few months he was potty trained.What really helped was potty books read them over and over again,they catch on so fast and now he's 4 he rarely need's help he doesn't want me in the bathroom with him.One other thing is I started to let him wear under wear all the time when he was over a yr old hea wanted to go potty but it didn't last so 21/2 he was wearing under wear then we'd switched back and fourth to pullups at nite he never had an accident in public with underwear,out of pullup completly by his 3rd B-day.Frustration on our faces,show's up and the kid's know it!!!
Don't give up! My youngest was really hard to potty train. I remember going to get her after every nap and she had taken off her diaper and gotten poo everywhere EVERY DAY! You're not alone! Just keep your patience and keep trying
my son was potty trained at 8 months. you have toward them and show them that when they go potty in the toilet there is a award. Think of something he really likes. It is no different than trying to train a dog to potty outside. You have to be consistent and don't let him push the buttons. Good luck. You can also start a star chart that will give him a big reward when he gets so many stars. Let him put the stars on the chart when he has done well.
My little man who is 20 months takes off his diaper and hands it to you. so i started potty training today. my mom suggested m&m's. Buy a bag and when they use the potty, give her just one. My son went on the potty once today and when he got that , he was ready to keep trying. Good luck!
M., monitor her pooh sessions. How much time has passed between eating and drinking to pooh time? Once you average this time out. Start taking her to the pot and be creative in keeping her there for a few minutes. Hopefully she pooh's in one of these sessions. When she does, make a big deal of it. A lot of hand clapping, good girl, big girl, you made pooh in the pot. Then let her help poor pooh in the big pot and fulsh. It is also a good thing to reward her with a pair of big girl panties. This will help take her to the next level. Keep your cool through mistakes. This will only last for a season. Good Luck
Take her with you everytime you go potty, get excited call yourself a big girl and wouldn't she like to be a big girl like mommy? Use a doll and have her take her doll potty and be a mommy like you. It worked on my daughter and granddaughter!!
You want to let the little one know that she/he is a big girl/boy now. One thing I found that really helps is to take them shopping and let them pick out their new under-garments. They feel grown when doing this and tell them that those are there special grown up undies. Once you have put the new under-garments on them-It is important NEVER to place a pull-up or a diaper on them again. When they soil their new undies, simply tell them it is ok and show them to the bathroom to change and clean themselves up. It is a part of independence that a child has to go through and believe me it wil work and they love being independent for themselves. Praise them every time they go successfully, even if they mess themselves, tell them it will be ok and better luck next time. Never get angry with a child who is trying to learn--patience is key here. Good luck.
i am going through potty training my 2 1/2 year old daughter too. i will tell you what we are doing wich might help you.
I started with her going potty with me, her potty chair next to my potty, once she understood what peepee was and poopoo we moved her potty chair to her own bathroom. we then had problems with her going on the potty. we just started getting her to go on the potty againg by taking her to the potty every hour and no longer using pull ups, just regular underwear. she does not like the feeling going down her leg. we are also using a sticker reward. we give her a sticker every time she goes potty on the potty without complant. she then puts it on a good job chart. when she gets a total of 10 stikers she gets a bigger reward. An example would be coloring together in a coloring book or somthing else she really likes to do or eat. so far it is working she is even starting to tell us when she has to go.
I hope this gives you some ideas that might work for you
J.
