how do i potty train my 3yr old daughter. she refuses to go in the potty or toilet only in her pullups. Help?

what parents do not understand is a pull up is a fancy diaper

stop it is confusing to her

you need to put her in real panties and rubber pants (plastic cover up used for cloth diapers)..or the plastic lined panties....

you need a timer and every 20 mins she sits and tries

some books about using the potty are read when she sits...

the other option is a sippy cup with endless drink so she is successful and uses the potty...once or twice of the motion and going...she will get it...also when she wets in the panties she will feel uncomfortable and not like the moisture ...in a pull up she does not feel moisture..or uncomfortable...

she also needs to be taking off the wet cloths and wiping herself and putting on new panties

the other part of this is all the switching from diapers to pull ups...and then maybe to panties is all to confusing...this is why if you want to be successful it is all or nothing...in the panties..and it is all day everyday training...working the timer and having her go throw the motion

when the timer goes off it is not a choice to sit or not to sit on the potty ...the timer goes off and we sit....read sit try...don't rush this....then..wipe and wash hands and go through all the motions...set the timer again and work it....

it is this effort that will potty train her not the pull ups....but most parents these days are not up to the challenge

One of the first steps would be to toss the pullups. Peeing in underwear and feeling wet is a normal part of beginning potty training and pullups reduce that sensation. You may even have luck doing a few days of no undies/diapers at all, which is how we had to start. You can buy her special panties with her favorite characters and tell her that they dont like being wet. If she is scared of the big potty, get her a potty chair. We put my sons potty chair in the living room and introduced it as a fun chair for about 2 weeks, and then explained that it was a special chair for peeing in after he got used to it. A reward system is usually very helpful- if you want to avoid candy, you can try stickers and sticker charts. Lastly, if she seems to have a lot of accidents and just generally doesnt seem interested or willing, she might not be ready. Make sure not to scold her if she has accidents as this can scare her away from trying. Good luck!

As your daughter is old enough to understand what you say, first, educate her on the necessity potty training. You can also make it as a game. Say like, If she uses her potty she might get some gifts or a popcorn or a drive etc.... This is how we can bring a playful interest on her potty experience.

Another way is, once she starts using potty, make sure u compulsarily take her to the potty every hour initially. After a week extend timings, every 2 hrs then to 3 hrs and finally stop taking her to potty voluntarily.

After a fortnight, you can see your kid going to potty, herself whenever she feels so.

I knew a mother who would let her children run around the house naked to potty train them. They would not urinate on the floor, knowing they would get in trouble, so it forced them to have to use the potty or toilet.

No more pullups, put her in big girl knickers, and tell her to tell Mummy or Daddy as soon as she needs to go.
