In July she was dry literally day and night for 5 weeks ,although she would not poo on the toilet or potty and went into corners to hide and do it in her pull ups.She really 'got' the idea and was asking for the toilet when she needed to go.She would not put proper pants on and was still wearing her pull ups.
Then for no reason she just decided that was enough and stopped and now just wets herself and apart from maybe 1 wee per day or every other day on the toilet .She is back to square one.
She is 2.8.
HELP

Go right back to the start and give a sweet for each success and lots of praise. It must be fustrating for you though.

So her pelvic floor is as weak as yours then ?

God, I had this with dd2. She was just being lazy/absorbed in playing. have you gone back to the sticker chart/choc button bribery thing? Have to take her every 45mins for a week or so too, till she gets the idea again.Don't go back to pullups though.Good luck!

lol Slouchy

We have tried stickers .
She wont wear pants.
Sometimes she refuses to even sit on the potty or toilet.
She knows what she is doing thats what i cant understand.

Gotta get tough then, I reckon.

Buy a new thing she really wants and put it somewhere visible but out of reach. It's hers when she has gone 3 days without a single accident.

I would back off completely, don't even ask her about it. Let her wear pull ups, take her to the potty/toilet if she asks but just let it go for now.

I may try that slouchy then failing that back off .
It is so frustrating though and i really need her to get out of pull ups because she is in the XL and they dont make them any bigger.
