So sorry if this is long but I'm at a bit of a loss with what to do with DD, she's been toilet trained since 2.5 and is now 4.9.
For as long as I can remember she's had small accidents where it isn't a full blown wee but her pants are wet. sometimes it's daily, sometimes she can go weeks being completely dry. There isn't anything that I can put my finger on that is triggering it. She's fully capable of taking herself to the toilet etc but it's like she just can't be bothered so waits and waits until she can't hold it any longer. She doesn't care that she's wet and often wont tell anyone so ends up sore and if I tell her to go sit on the toilet it's a massive tantrum because she doesn't want to. She's the same in nursery, they remind her every so often and she has a great dry few weeks then as soon as they think she's got the hang of it and give her that bit of independence with it she's back to accidents again.
I've spoken with our hv who suggested using the Eric website and some form of reward chart which worked for a bit but it doesn't keep her motivated very long.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, will it just be something that clicks one day? She starts school in September, is it normal for primary 1 children to still be having frequent accidents? I'm so worried that she just isn't bothered by it at all.
