Hello, new poster here.
I've been potty training for 2 weeks which has gone really well. dd is 2.3 and after 2 days of accidents, was asking to use toilet (won't use potty) and we had no leaks or accidents for 2 weeks, although she was still pooing in nappy at naptime/night or in her pants. However, she seems to have lost her confidence and is not asking to use toilet anymore, saves it for when she has a nappy on at naptime/night and the occassional accident. I'm worried she might get a urine infection from holding in for so long. If I suggest going to use the loo, she gets very stroppy. She will not poo in toilet and has gone from being regular to once/twice every 2/3 days. I'm thinking she might be holding in the wee in case she starts to poo as well? Anyone had any similar experience? Should I stop for a while? She was doing so well to start with, now seems worried by the whole toilet experience. We keep saying she can poo in her nappy if she wants, but that doesn't seem to help.
We are being calm and not getting cross at all, and are full of praise if she does go to the loo. I've even stopped asking her if she needs the toilet so often, so as not to pressure her. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
