2 weeks into potty training do I go back to nappies

[Bekindtopeople]

My DD is 30months and I thought I would try potty training again (1st attempt was 4months ago)
she gets what she has to do but if she is distracted or can’t be bothered doesn’t care and she wets. She is also holding her pee for hours I will tell her its potty time she fights back kicking and screaming she is so determined and stubborn to do it her way. But then she ends up with wet pants/clothes/carpet/sofa/toys
I don’t think she isn’t constipated cause is going every day and we get in the toilet or potty most of the time.
We are 2 weeks in and I’m am exhausted and frustrated. Should I just put her in nappies again

ps I she wears a pull up at night always dry

this is also 2nd attempt tried a couple of months ago cause she was pulling at nappies and wanting it changed or off went back to nappies after 3 days cause she was having 20+accidents a day

Have you tried bribing her and making accidents inconvenient by getting her involved with clean up? I’d be reluctant to go back to nappies given you’ve been successful with poos because that’s the part most people find harder and if she has the bladder control to go hours between wees and is producing the hormone to be dry at night then she sounds ready. You just need to figure out a way to persuade her to do it!

She’s definitely ready and at 30 months is old enough to learn about consequences for not going to the toilet on time. As pp said, get her involved in cleaning up after an accident. Stop her from playing / pause the TV or whatever and get her to help put the clothes in the washer and have a shower to clean up. Every time. She’ll soon learn that it’s better to go when she needs to than leave it and have an accident. Obviously if it’s a genuine accident then deal with it quickly but if she’s deliberately avoiding toilet time, make it inconvenient for her to wet / soil herself.

Bribery with chocolate buttons is usually a good move too!

If she is holding onto her wee then she is ready.

If she's holding, she has some control over it, and she's consolidated her random weeing.

Are you giving her the chance to initiate?

We're in the midst of this, and we've backed right off the prompting. "The potty is there if you need it", and we only put him on it if we're just going out/about to eat. He still has accidents (in fact, he's mainly done wees on the floor) - but they're accidents right by the potty, which he ran to himself. He'll sit on it after to check for more.
