I'm going to start potty training my daughter...

I'm in the middle of trying to potty train my daughter too. She's not taking to it very well, but she loves wearing "big girl panties" lol. I have a sheet of smiley stickers that say hooray, good job, and excellent, that she gets to choose from when she goes on the potty. She has her own potty, but the top comes off so you can set it right on the toilet seat. Since she was able to walk I've been taking her into the bathroom with me and that has helped. It gets frustrating and I'm sure you are sick of having to change diapers or wet clothes, but stick with it, she'll get it. I ask my daughter about every hour and a half if she has to go. Even if she says no I tell her "well, let's go make sure" and lead her into the bathroom. More often than not, she does go. Sometimes she just needs a little encouragement. Good luck!!

are you going to get some of those little kandoo things for her? i often wonder if those would actually help teach kids along with that toilet paper with the paw prints on it to know how much to use and stuff..but most certainly just put her potty beside of yours and when you go ask if she has to go too..and as she gradually learns start telling her now you are going to take turns when needs to go and she can go first ..make little games out of it..does she already wear the pull ups? (my nephew is doing potty training right now not fun for my sister in law but hes so funny) lol Good luck

The best advice I can give is to make it fun and don't put pressure on her. She will have accidents. If you make a big deal about the accidents it will make the whole thing a lot harder. Also, don't worry if it takes her longer than a friends or relatives child. Each child is different. Ask her about every hour if she has to go. Pay attention to her actions. Some kids will start to hold themselves or do little "dances" when they need to go. These are good signs that it's time to ask her. Since she's a girl, if you are comfortable, you could even have her go in the bathroom with you. You could go and then tell her it's her turn to try.

yep, just be cool about it, don't berate or punish her for doing what she's done since she was born. just let it happen naturally, in her own time, no matter how much you want to stop the diaper duty :)

Go easy with her. Don't yell or punish her. Reward her. Wait until she is atleast 2 to 4.
