When is the right times to put them on the potty?
My daughter just started potty training and its been going alot better. Today she actually potty a couple drop in it and this was right after she woke up this morning. Yesterday when i was at work, my husband put her on the potty and two times he had to leave for just a second cuz of our other baby girl and when he got back she stood up and peed on the ground. So she so close. When are the best times to put her on it. She says pee pee but when we put her on she doesnt go. She is really interested in doing this. Any ideas on what i can do? I already started the candy thing if she goes and i did reward her for going that little bit so she sees that she will get out if she goes. But do you have any ideas on what i could do? BTW she is 2 years old!

maybe she's just not ready yet. My youngest is 2 & 7months old and has only just started to use the toilet/potty. Because my other kids where fully potty trained around 2 years I felt that he should be to, however he just wasn't ready. I left it until a few weeks ago he came up to me and asked to go himself.
I'm really not worried, as long as he is out of nappies before he starts pre school next summer then there is no problem.
As far as best times to put them on, I just ask them periodically " do you need the potty?" If they haven't been for a while I sit them down on it anyway and sing silly songs about the potty, make the toilet seat talk in daft voices ( that always got them giggling) or my little boys favorite is to read him a story while he goes.

We take my 2 1/2 year old son potty every 45 mins to 1 hour. We set a kitchen timer and when it goes off, it's time to go potty. He doesn't go every time, but he at least tries. We did the M&M reward thing for awhile and did a potty dance every time he went. Your daughter will eventually learn what the urge to pee feels like. Be patient.
