My Potty Woes

Jacquelyn - posted on 04/03/2009 ( 2 moms have responded )

I have a daughter who just turned 2 early march and i was wondering, how can i potty train her? Well is it too soon? She is a little smaller then average, and we got her a tiny potty to learn in... But she just keeps playing with it, and taking it apart. So not sure how to get her to stop playing and use it.

My daughter is 27 months and she is going potty. I would definitely introduce it to her but not push it on her. My lil one is so in dominate that I noticed the more I pushed her the more she didn't want to potty. Also entice her with panties and let her know if she is going to where them she has to be a big girl and tell you when she has to go. Yes stickers are wonderful. It takes time. My son didn't get potty trained until he was 3yrs old. So take is slow and make it seem like her idea. Have fun!

My daughter is 27 months old and she has been working on potty training for a couple of months. We have not been very consistent with her. We let her try on the potty if she wants. The tiny potty I bought for her was a waste as she just wanted to use it as a chair or put her toys in the potty or under the potty or near the potty. The potty seat that goes on the actually toilet has been better. She likes to get her stickers for a reward when she actually goes. I think after this set of diapers runs out we are going full boar on the potty and training pants. Good luck and don't pressure your daughter - it will all happen.
