Potty Training Issues - Pensacola, FL

When ever she goes in her panty what do you do? Do you get upset? How long do you sit her on the potty? Also have to tried this. She is 3 1/2 so she knows what you are talking about. So you take her to the potty once every 15 mins. You give her the chance to go. If she does not go then you take her in another 15 mins. If she refuses to go. You tell her that if you go in your pants you will be punished. Meaning you will give her a time out. Where she will not be able to do nothing but, sit in a chair for 3 mins. You keeping doing this she will come to understand that it is bad to go in her pants. She should be potty trained within a couple of days with this routine. You have to tell her that you have to go on the potty. You are not going to buy and training pants anymore. If you dont want to sit her in the chair, then you tell her that she cants have any juice for that time. You give her water instead. You have to take something away that she enjoys. She will get use to the ideat that you have to go on the potty. A women told me this is how she got her daughter potty trained. She did not want to potty train but, when she took her daughter to daycare. They told her that the next day you will not be able to bring her in diapers. So she just told her daughter no more diapers or pull ups you have to go on the potty. She was 2 1/2. So she just did the routine above and she was broke. My daughter is 18 months she is almost potty trained. She goes on the big potty twice a day. I am trying to break her of diapers, hopefully by january. She is ready. She knows when she has to pee and she takes her diaper off.

the first thing you should remember is to not stress your self because then you will stress her. i went through a simular experienced with my son. it was no matter what i did he just didnt want to use the potty. so i acyually just took a break from it for a couple weeks, and they we started over and then we started over. i think that because i was stressed i had stress him to where he didnt want to do it. try that and she what happens.

when we were potty training my daughter we would take her to the bathroom every 30 mins or so and let her sit on the potty and if nothing happened nothing happened but when she did go she got one M&M and we did the "Pee Pee Dance" I would just dance around and sink "pee pee in the potty" over and over and she would join in. and we would go down the hall singing and dancing she really loved that.

we had the same trouble with my Grandchild I had to take her an extra pair of panties to Day Care. when aat last i could think of nothing more and like you i had tried it all I took her to the Dr. and found she had a weak kidney she didn,t know when she needed to go.It was a fight to first grade but we got it licked and so will you in time. first time mom is hard you have to learn it all and when you feel like running try just one more thing.once i found it was medical I was ashamed of some of the things I had tried on her like telling her if she kept doing that everyone would look at her and say there goes pee pee pants;;.one thing almost helped i got a bowl of tiny marshmellows and eatch time she remembered to use the pot she got to either drop one in the pot are her mouth. do you have a stool for her? dear I would have a Dr. look at her and explaain to him are her the trouble then go from there. lot,s of luck to you I am sure she is a beautiful child----Nanna

I've potty traijned all of mine before they were 2, so it's a little different, but when they have had accidents or wet the bed, I calmly tell them that they need to clean it up (with my help as needed). My 3½ year old will occasionally be too preoccupied with riding her bike or something and not want to come in to go potty, so she will wait too long and then just come in and change clothes. As long as she takes care of it herself, I don't care if she has an accident. The point is to let her be as responsible for her elimination needs as she can be. If she can't get there in time but she can take her wet clothes off by herself, then start with that.

Keep in mind that the only things a child can really control is eating, sleeping and eliminating. When all other things have changed (for example a move)---they try to control the only things they can. So have patience, she'll be ready when she is ready (just like when she was ready to walk).

With mine---I simply asked my daughter when she thought she would be ready for big girl underwear--she told me she would be ready when she turned 3. 3 rolled around and she wasn't ready. One day she saw a doll she wanted badly. I told her that they only let girls who used the potty get that doll. In one week she had mastered the potty (we used a sticker chart) and we went and bought the doll. She's used the potty ever since.

ok.. i got a book called.."toilet training in less then a day"... my daughter is almost 3, come this december. i actually started with the techniques in the book this past thursday afternoon, and it took 2 days before she had no accidents. the technique really works and your daughter is old enough to understand very well, and follow it through. i know it sounds crazy, but it helped a lot. just read the book all the way through before you begin that way you'll have all the steps down. the book really helps in getting the child to take on full responsibility for going potty. they get them to tell you when they need to, not the other way around. so i would say to give it a try.. it couldnt hurt after all your previous efforts. and i hope she does well. it does explain the use of a doll to teach them, it is as though they learn through teaching. i didnt use the doll, i just went through all the steps when i went potty then i did all the training the way the book dictates. but either way i think you need to try and get a time where you can sort of devote like two days to it. so the first is when the training happens and the second will reinforce everything. and i bet she'll take to it quickly.. good luck!!

I finally got my daughter potty trained at 2 1/2 and she hasn't had a single accident since. I completely stopped buying diapers/pullups. SHe was afraid of the toliet so I bought the musical potty (never even put batteries in it) because it was her size. I left in the living room so that she wouldn't have to run to the bathroom, it was right there. She wore the thick cloth training underwear at home and when we went out I put the plastic training pants over them so it wouldn't be as big of a mess.
