Great potty training tips for 2yr. old girl???
Ok, I’m a frustrated first time mom. I started potty training my 2yr. old daughter this week. I set the timer for a half hour and when it goes off I take her to the potty. I have her sit on the potty for 5min. She cries almost the whole time. I try to encourage her, but she just cries through it. I’ve given her books to read, but that just seems to distract her. Then yesterday, I put her on the potty for 5min., got her off and two minutes later she went in her pull up. So, I put her right back on the potty and told her in a nice way that she needs to go peepee on the big girl potty and not in her pull-up. I then took her off. Within the half hour time span from the first time I put her on the potty she went pee in her pull-up twice. I just don’t know what to do for her to get the idea of it. Does anyone have some good tips as to how to get her to understand it and have fun learning to go potty on the big girl potty??
I’ve tried singing funny songs and I tried bribing her with gum (because she loves gum right now), but that didn’t seem to work yesterday. We have only been working on this since Monday, so I think maybe I just need to give her some time to get used it.
