Ok my son is being difficult. I know i need to just back off but we were so close. he went 3 days with only 1 accident a day in his underwear. I was so happy. But now he has reverted back to the pull up.I hope my daughter isn't hard to potty train. Some people say when he makes accident don't get to mad. don't let him see you so mad. I have been doing that. it's working somewhat but it has helped in other areas of teaching him things.Besides waiting it out What else can I do to encourage him?

No advice just :huggy:
I am currently PTing my daughter. She was doing so well with a dress and nothing underneath that yesterday I had her wear underwear. She did not go once on the potty once, just in her underwear. We are back to no underwear today and she is back to going on the potty.

Let him go "water the flowers and trees". Worked for my son a little too good because he would rather "water" things when home than go in the bathroom :lmao:

We're doing the potty training too! She's done extremely well, very few accidents. Saturday she went poo on the potty, said she was all done, finished the paperwork and washed up. She trotted off upstairs to watch her movie and within a minute started crying. Apparently she wasn't finished and pooed on her bedroom floor :lmao: Poor baby was very upset about her accident. Other than that, :yay:

I tried everything. I thought he was potty trained 3 times but he kept reverting back. Eventually, he was just ready. I rewarded him so many times with money and toys. In the end, all he needed was to know how proud of him I was. I can't count how many times I sat there and clapped with him when he peed. Now, he just does it out of routine. I never have to ask him if he has to go anymore. He just does it. Good luck. :yay:

My brother is 4 and he freaks out when he has to poop. He will go find a pull up so he can poop in that. It was funny at first but it worries me now that he will 5 soon.

The need to tell him that pink PullUps are just for girls and forbid him to put them on. Who are the parents here? He's ruling them.

My nephew is 11 months and he knows how to poop on the potty! :lmao: My sister said he pooped in the tub once, so she started watching his expressions, and when he got "the look," she would sit him on the potty. Now he'll start pushing when she sits him on the potty! :lol: She doesn't do it all the time, but if he has a clean diaper when he wakes up in the AM, she'll try it.

My youngest tried to pull that crap on me. I got down in his face and very quietly but firmly told him he was to either knock that crap off or he'd be sorry. He knocked it off real quick.

my parents make excuses why they dont do this or that. "They work" Its stupid. I am just glad i am not there to have to deal with it. I think thats why my son has some problems doing things. Kids learn from other kids.We lived with her for 6 months before we moved here. My son was almost potty trained before we moved in there.i have adifferent way of raising my kids. I pay attention to them and make sure I recognise a problem and try to fix it. There are 8 of us. You would think she was a pro. Don't get me wrong I love my mom.

I work 2 jobs. Luckily I have great person taking care of my kids during the day who was willing to work with my son. Between the two of us, he was almost immediately potty trained when HE was ready.

I am glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. I need time away from the kids in order to be a better mom and they have experiences that they wouldn't otherwise have if I was with them. I saw alot of kids the first day of preschool and/or kindergarten who had never even been baby-sat by someone other than family. They freaked. I felt so bad for them.

I would go back to work but child care cost to much and I don't want to be away from the kids or hubby.I didn't have my mom growing up so thats probably why I won't go to work Well until they are in school.
