Potty training help

[Runningjayne]

Hi ladies, looking g for some potty training help please. My dd is nearly 2, under no pressure to potty train but I think now might be a good time. Her sister was done at 20m, and when I say done took no training at all, literally asked her if she wanted to wear knickers and she did, scary easy. Anyway so because of that I've no idea about actual training. Part of me thinks why dont I just wait until dd2 is at the same point and wont take training but also cos we're stuck at home now might be a good chance

She always tells me she is weeing or pooing when she is doing it and quickly gets annoyed by a wet nappy and asks to be cleaned and nappy done. She can also pull her trousers up and down on her own

So what do I do? Put knickers on a watch her like a hawk and try and encourage her onto the potty when i think she might go? Weve had the potty out for a while and she will sit on it but hasn't ever done anything

you could try the block method (I think there is another name for it too): The first block your child is completely naked all day until he or she can go to the potty on their own or with you bringing them to it — i.e. moves past peeing on the floor. The second block your child wears clothes and underwear and the third block you add small outings, eg walks.
when she uses the toilet for a wee, give her one smartie or raisin, and a poo is 2 smarties or 2 raisins.

all the best x

I recommend the oh crap book.
