My two year old won't go potty but she knows how.Help!?


My daughter was potty trained 6 months before her 2nd birthday. BUt because of the day care that she was in and the refused to move her up she had to wear a diaper and go in the diaper. Well, no I have taken her out of the day care and I want her to go potty. She refuses to tell me she has to potty until after she has done it. She that she has had a bowl movement because she brings me the baby wipes to clean her. IF I don't do it when she wants it off she takes off her pamper and starts to wipe herself. She likes wearing panties but she always urinates in them and gets very upset when I take them off and don't put on another pair. There are times when she tells me that she has to potty but she doesn't do anything. How do I get her to go to the potty? I do still have pull ups on her because she doesn't go to the bathroom and she hides when she urinates in the panties so no one will notice that she is wet or a wet spot in the floor. HELP!PLEASE!

Answers:
my daughter is going through the same phase which is crazy she is also 2 and she know's how to use the bathroom but she won't do it so what i did was bring other kids that are using the bathroom around her and let her see them using the bathroom so now she want's to use it more. just talk to her and tell her stuff like big girls use the bathroom or my daughter likes dora i so i would put dora on her old potty and tell her dora is using her potty and she would go.also you can tell her if she pee's in her pull up's she will not get something she likes alot like ice cream.if that doesn't work then you just got to be patient with her she'll get the hang of it.

you have to start all over again from the very beginning. good luck

I think that you have to reteach her how to go to the potty. Remember, she was for a long time in diapers in the day care, for whatever reason and she knows how to go potty, so you just have to sort of make it fun. You can give her some kind of price when she actually goes potty. Sounds to me like there may be more going on with your daughter than you realize. Be patient with her....no yelling......reward her for going. Dedicate your days off to taking care of this problem. Putting diapers on a trained child was a mistake. You confused the poor girl. No more diapers.....panties only. You may have some messes to clean but enforce the idea she's a Big girl now.
You can do it


She is not ready! You are forcing it way too much. She is sensing pressure from you. She needs all the signs of readiness. Poor child. Some childrens' bladders are not fully developed physically until they are 2 1/2 years old. So physically, it is pointless to expect her to hold it if she is not ready. Check below.

They should know that kids develop at their own pace..Not when it's ok for the day care to say its ok to learn to go potty...Remind her to go potty maybe she forgets...Maybe the day care is not changing her often enough???
