Little one is 2 and seems to be ready for potty training - we have a potty and steps to use the toilet. She doesn’t mind sitting on either of these however, when it comes to having a wee/poo she seems to panic and want her nappy on - but doesn’t want to wee/poo in the nappy either and is pulling it to one side so that it doesn’t dirty her nappy (just any surface in the house 😅). I don’t know how to proceed here - don’t want to force her into anything but also seems pointless using nappies anymore.

Any help/links to anything much appreciated!

We only had two accidents fortunately, but from the start we involved my son in cleaning up. Explained casually that wee and poo belonged in the potty and that he could help Mummy or Daddy clean up the wee or poo and put it in the potty. After that he knew where to go.

Have you tried leaving your DD completely naked? Then watching for the signs she's about to go and getting her onto the potty?
