Potty Training Trials
Posted in Uncategorized on 04/23/2009 07:41 pm by admin
This sweet little girl has a dark side. She absolutely refuses to use the potty. I started the training process about qa month ago by going cold turkey on the diapers and putting that kid in big girl tinker bell pants. At first I put her on the potty every 3-4 hours and make a big deal when she succeeded. For a while she would pee in the potty all the time and mostly poo in her pants. I thought we were making great strides because my husband and I caught her twice when she was about to make a stink in her pants and got her to the potty on time.
But lately she has been hiding from us and peeing and pooing in her pants. Today I found her in the playroom with wet pants. So I cleaned C up and sent her to her room to get some new clothes. After 15 minutes I went to check on her to find poo on the floor. ICK!! After that was cleaned up I found that she had peed on the floor. At this point I was ready to pull my hair out. I felt like
I can’t believe how resistant this little 2 and 3/4 yr old is to using the potty. When her older sister was that age I was able to train her in a week using the same method.
What is a mommy to do?? Hoping for a better tomorrow.

Help. Did you ever sort this problem out? I have exactly the same problem with my son who refuses to wear a nappy – he just takes it off – and refuses to use a potty or toilet, just doing it on the floor when my back is turned. I don’t know what to do….
