Potty Training Twins
If you have twins or children of a similar age you may feel that potty training them together may seem like a time-saver, but it doesn’t always work out that way, as your children may approach readiness at different times.
A key point to remember is that not all children are ready at the same time [...]
Does Anyone Have Tips On How To Deal With My 3 Year Old Daughters Regression In Potty Training?

She has done so good for almost a year now, and for about 3 months she has been taking naps w/o a pullup also….any suggestions?????

Go back to the begining of potty training give her praise if she does good or give a star sticker each time till she gets enough to buy some big girl undies!!Good luck
ReplyI’d look into whats up with her. I mean it could be something as simple as she is just having accidents. But pay attention to when and where she is doing it and make sure to listen to her. I hope that there are no possiblities that she is being molested which would cause potty training regression. If she mentions any new games people have been playing with her listen and ask questions. Maybe there is some underlying reasons for her potty issues.
ReplyIs their any changes at her school that you don’t no about?May be She is needing your attention start praising Her about all things and see if that makes a difference….Good luck and God Bless….And you need to ask her why She is doing it….Could have a kidney infection….
Replywhat is she doing? having accidents while napping? i have read somewhere that when they are potty trained early (like before 27 months) there are chances for relapses—not sure why though. my daughter potty trained just before the age of 3…and she had a few accidents…it was mostly because she was too involved in playing. don’t go backwards, i would just keep reminding her to go to the potty.
ReplyFirst git rid of all pull ups, and tell her they are all gone and tell her you cant git anymore and she needs to be a big girl now soon she well be going to big girl school and they dont let you go if you cant go to the potty. you just have to think like her maybe offer her going to the toy store and gitting something she would like. Hope i could help it worked with all 3 of my kids GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
Replyspeakin from experience….just let her be, she could be testing you, or who else cares for her. alot of children do it. most important thing is not to get angry, if she has a accident just say ok. and ignore it as if its a normal thing. once she see’s its no big deal she will probably be fully toilet trained
ReplyIt is always discouraging for parents to live with these potty regressions.
Replya thing that occurs frequently, though is sometimes overlooked with potty training toddlers, is a natural regression that comes from having mastered a skill. u may have noticed when your child was a baby, she would move with fierce determination to learn to roll over, crawl or stand unassisted. Many children, after gaining this control, move on with the same determination towards other skills, leaving the old skill behind.
This same process can occur with potty training. Once your child learns to use the potty with regular success, it’s time to move on to other skills. it may seem like your child is suddenly “too busy playing” and forgets to use the potty. This is precisely what happens. They are too busy figuring out another important part of their world.
You can help your child by reminding them frequently to use the potty. And don’t take “no” for an answer if you feel it’s been too long between bathroom breaks. “No” may not mean “no, I don’t need to use the restroom” but instead could mean “no, I don’t want this activity to be interrupted right now.” Show your child that you understand the importance of the activity they are involved in by using phrases such as, “I know you’re very busy right now,” and “I can see you almost have that worked out,” and “You’re working very hard on that (picture/building/puzzle).” Then, state the importance of staying dry and using the potty and gently guide your child to the bathroom.
My daughter had the same problem when she was 2. The lady at daycare let go of her and she feel into the potty. After the she wouldn’t go on the potty because she was afraid to fall in. I made going potty fun for her. She only got to play speacial game or read special books on the potty. If she went potty then she got a reward. Finally she had the confidence to do it on her own. Keep trying, she will get back into the routine. Good Luck!
