Potty Training Help PLEASE!!!!

topic posted Mon, March 17, 2008 - 9:26 AM by  offlineJessica
So my kiddo is 2 1/2 now and we are having the hardest time potty training. We have tried everything from the every 30 min to bribs to pull ups. You name it we have tried and nothing seems to be working. She knows when she has gone and will take off her own diaper or pull up but she wont go in the potty. We have tried the regular toilet and kids toilet and the attachment to the regular toilet. I need any and all advice I can get so I can try something new.
Thanks
Jessica

    Shoot, my son's 3 1/2 and he's not trained either. But our friends have their daughter fairly potty trained and she said it just took them getting a different potty. I got the fancy one that looks like a toilet and he just thinks it's a toy, but he'll sit on it and pretend if I'm going. I'm going to try to set it up next to the potty, he's shown SO MUCH more of an interest now that daddy's home. They have the safety first (I think) potty and he tried to snag it when we were over there and he sat on it and sat on it. So I'm not sure if we should try switching or not. I've got a few books on it but I can't begin to tell you whether they're good or not because I just haven't had time to read them!

    Not too helpful, I know, but maybe it can jumpstart the conversation!

    Pull-ups never worked for me! They are just like a diaper. When my son was that 2 I just put him in underpants during the day at home. Its a little more messing but they really figure out there body funtions when they can feel it. They make more expensive cloth training pants that work well and are less messy and one pair is cheaper than a bag of pull-ups. Let me know what you think :) Christin
