I have been training my 2.11 year old DD for a week now (unfortunately was waiting for her to show any interest but it was never forthcoming).
We started off with the usual 'accidents' and were getting a few wees in the potty but it was mainly because the wee had started coming so got her to the potty in time rather than her instigating it. But now we have the extreme whereby she is holding her wee's in ALL DAY. This is the 3rd day - it's 5pm now - and despite many trips to the potty and her indicating it's hurting she just cannot seem to relax for it to come out spontaneously. She has been dry ALL day - that's not normal! On the plus side it's good she has learnt some control then just before bed when she can hold it no longer she fills an entire potty! She is going to get a bladder infection at this rate. I'm really concerned....
Any tips please? I'm doing the sticker chart & even chocolate button bribe but it's like she hasn't learnt to relax her muscles yet. I've run out of ideas and am getting desperate.
Thank you.
