Sometimes I think I am the only mum with areluctant girl potty trainer. She will be three at end of Dec.
We tried potty traing as per the books earlier on in the year. My daughters behaviour ticked all the boxes but it was a complete disaster suffice to say she was crying to go back to nappies after 2 days of refusing a sit on a potty at all and just soiling and weeing herself all the time.
My daughter is bright articulate and knows exactly what happens in the loo. She even helps empty nappies in the loo and loves to pull the chain and then wash her hands.
She just still chooses not to use the loo or potty.
I have decided to avoid any further stress to wait and be led by her, does this work I understand this methos is used in other countries?
I will add that all her friends at pre school are toilet trained and the fact that she is not in pants or using a potty does not bother her.
She also gave her night time bottle up of her own accord at 2.6 bizarrely when on holiday.
The dummy has been dropped during the day by her hoping eventually to go by her at night time.
So is this worth a try seems to have worked with bottle and dummy.
Not bothered about her in nappies, pre-school are happy they say the same ie when she is really it will be easy.
