Dribbles of wee in pants before going on toilet/potty

[juliedennis74]

My DD who is 2y5m has been toilet training for 5 weeks. She is doing great with her poos, getting them all on toilet or potty and we don't have many big wee accidents, one every day or so. Howver, almost always, she seems to let a bit of wee out into her pants before she then says she needs to go. Sometimes I can remind her to go but more often than not she will not go when I suggest (very stubborn and independent) and would prefer to decide herself when she needs to go. Any advice and is this normal? If it is a phase we have to go through then that is fine. My DS was an absolute nightmare to toilet train but that is a whole other story and this is so much better but just not sure if it is okay.

I think that sometimes they dribble a bit while they are trying to remember whether they have pants on and the wetting is while they try to control themselves, so it's all a bit last minute iyswim. I think it will get better in time as she gets herself to the potty/loo a bit sooner. It's good that she only dribbles and doesn't just wee all the way to the loo!

Hopeful bump

Also having this problem - any advice? We are on day 6 now, first poo in the potty today which was unprompted, but most wees start with small dribble and being told he needs to be changed before we take him to the bathroom and he then does the rest on the potty. Will never agree to go when prompted, even if I can see he needs.
