First day of potty training my first DC. DD is 2.8.
We have had a potty and toilet seat for her from about age 2 which she has got used to sitting on but she has been reluctant to pee in the potty.
She likes her pants. She had one accident at 11.15 but has not had a pee since. It has confirmed that she has the bladder control to train but she is so wilful and for some reason won't pee on the potty or loo. I've been careful not to put on pressure, I've just explained that we are swapping nappies for pants and we will try and pee/poo in the potty. I made no fuss after her accident just cleared up and said never mind next time we'll try and do it in the potty.
I am worried about the length of time since she last pee'd. She is obviously holding it in. I've made sure she has been drinking plenty of water so she would need to go. I asked if she wanted to put on a nappy and she said no but she won't use the potty. Should I forget about potty training for now or carry on for a couple more days and see how she goes?
