I've just started potty training with my 24MO and she totally got it straight away. She started really well and is still doing great but she's really stubborn about sitting on the potty until she absolutely needs to (or nearly misses) to a point she was dancing around on and off for 2 hours this evening and gettiing really worked up if we sat her on her potty so we stopped pressuring her but she was still dancing around not really knowing what to do with herself and a bit distressed. I don't want to stop because she definitely 'gets it' but I don't want to distress her either. We've tried sitting her on the potty and putting her the lion king (her current fave) on tv or distracting her with something but it's like she's getting herself too worked up to wee. Will this all settle if we persist? I don't want to sound mean but I feel like if we give up now or allow her pullups back then she'll just learn that she has that as an option and it'll be even harder in the longterm. Any help would be appreciated. I believe she's ready so want to get through this. Thanks.
