I have asked potty training questions before but I need more help!?


I always get great answers from different people so I am going to ask again. I have read potty training books with no help. My daughter went to the potty once and now won't go. Any ideas on how to help her? I do not want to push it but she will not keep any kind of underwear or diapers on and I cannot have her keep peeing and pooping on the floor.

Answers:
I wish you stated your daughters age. But Here goes I think she may not be ready. My son who is now 2 1/2 yrs old. Just started using the potty on and off. Everyday more and more. Until recently he would not even sit on the potty not at all. I kept talking to him about it. He went in with mama and dada to potty. After a short while he started slow wanting to sit and play around and get up and sit back on it over and over. Well one day he just did it and then did it again. But I also have to reinforce keeping a diaper on because he will still just go if he pleases. If she takes it off put it back on after asking want to try the potty. She says no diapy goes on. Keep at it she will get there.
Get her a potty chair and let her carry it around and play with it. Putting toys into it (as long as its clean), sitting on it while watching cartoons, etc.. Let her gain an interest in it for a while with no pressure and next time she takes a diaper off ask her if maybe she would like to sit on the potty chair and let her take it wherever she wants to sit. This has helped alot of friends I know. It just take a little time and patience.
