Is she ready?


My little girl is almost 2 and loves to go sit on the potty and say "tee tee" when she sits and then want toilet paper to wipe. I have tried putting her big girl underwear on but she just pees in those and then tells you tee tee.

Answers:
If a child shows interest in using the toilet they are ready to begin...a good indicator is after a long nap, if her diaper is dry, then she has learned how to control it....pick a weekend, buy 15 pairs of undies, and keep her in it all weekend...don't switch back and forth between undies and pullups/diapers, b/c this is confusing....bring her to the bathroom every 2 hours to try....get a prize box where she can pick a toy after she goes in the potty......once she feels the wet undies, she won't like it and will start holding it til she gets to the potty...and if you do it all weekend, don't send her to daycare in diapers...tell you daycare you have started potty training and bring like 10 pairs of undies...good luck!
Maybe try pull ups...to show her that she can go to the bathroom but in case of accidents while she's learning, it's not that big of a deal.
