those with girls! potty training help please!

Just ask her why she doesn't want to be helpful and use the big potty. My oldest was afraid of falling in but didn't like her training toliet so I just took her to the store one day, she picked the one she liked the best that just sits on the toliet and never had an issue again.

I am no help since my dd was a late trainer. Shoot my mom even was here for a week and saw that dd was not emotionally ready even though her body was physically ready. The good news is she did not go into kindergarten using diapers and only one accident the first week of school due to having too much fun in the daily welcome routine.

I suggest waiting until she wants to do it. My son didn't potty train until he was 3. We tried 3 times between age 2 and 3 but when he didn't care about his acciendnts I put him back in diapers. Then right around his 3rd birthday he said he needed to go so I sent him in by himself since he already knew everything he needed to do, and that was it. He used the potty every time from then on.


My dd is 25 months and she will take off her diaper and sit on her little girl toilet every time I sit on the big girl one. But she won't go potty!
She has peed only once and I think it was just because the seat was cold!

My daughter does the exact same thing. I suggest getting a toilet ring and putting her on the actual toilet, not just a kid's potty. DD refuses to get near her kid potty but she will go on the toilet.
