So on and off being trying the potty with our 2.5 year old, since she was around 18 months old.
Every time we try she just doesn't seem to grasp it, or understand what she needs to do despite showing the signs of readiness like saying her nappy is wet or smelly.
She'll now sit on the potty and look between her legs and ask the water (pee) to come out... but as yet hasn't managed.
She has pooped and peed in the potty when we've tried before, but each time it's given her a fright and she's jumped off before finishing. We tried her on the toddler seat on the loo thinking it would help but it didn't.
So we are trying again today.
Any hints or tips?
Do you let them sit on the potty for as long as they want? I feel she uses it more as a seat when I do this, she'll sit on it for ages.
Do you keep putting them back on it every hour or so to try and catch the pee/poop? Do you reward it if you catch it like this?
Help us please lol.
