Yeah - that's where I'm at now. I've given up on "training". Just waiting for her to 'feel like it'. It's extremely frustrating though!

He has not even wet the bed.

It was like that for my oldest too.

We're just starting with our guy. I'm really hoping that the "light" will go on, because most of the time I sit with him on the pot, he's looking at me like "what do I do now?" and if he's there too long without effect, he gets upset, as though he's being punished.

Is there a time lag in training? I see there being quite a while between him using it because he has to go (by telling me), and him actually getting up and going by himself. He also isn't used to pulling down his pants to go yet.

Have you tried singing to make it look fun?

If you want to know the song, send me a PM.

I check my sons pull to make sure he didnt pee and he has caught on/ Now he comes to me and pulls his pull down and says no pee pee. I hope he doesnt do that in public

Having success finally with my 3 year old. She has had some poop incidents. So far we haven't had a bed wetting. Just had to wait for her to stop fighting it.
