LATE POTTY TRAINING TIPS | HOW TO POTTY TRAIN A STUBBORN CHILD

[@lizab8400]

Mom potty shaming IS REAL. And so frustrating when you know in your heart you have done everything and that your child does not have any mental disabilities. It was nice to have some encouragement today because I am at the end of my rope with my little one and am going to take a break for a while which I know will be the best thing for the both of us. Please momma's be kind to each other.

[@monicarai1497]

My child's day care teacher did that and I told her off. My daughter transitioned at 6 beautifully at her own pace. No problems at all since. You're right. This toxic culture needs to stop. I remember telling her day care teacher 'oh so you base a child's learning capabilities based on potty training ?' She couldn't answer me. Very toxic culture

[@melissaraupita3385]

@@monicarai1497 Well done. I am in the process of toilet training my 3 year old son because he refuses the potty. He loves it. He's going to day care tomorrow and I'm giving them a schedule to follow so he gets the same treatment that he gets at home. I told them specifically not to change anything because it will backtrack his progress at home. Let's hope they listen

[@bluedreamsz143]

it's hard also when your a mommy and your Lil one not being potty training fully and then coparenting with the dad who makes me out to be a terrible mommy saying her not fully trained is me being a bad mommy. then calls his mom a state away and the both mom shame me how I'm holding her back..so hey make me feel bad about myself when im the only one really trying to get her to use the potty. when she was 4 she was using it but then when she was 5 we moved to a new house new toilet so I'm not sure if that made a difference well she is in pull-ups but I'm hoping this video can help me potty train asap.

@@TheMummyBubble Oh I'm in really bad situation. 6 year old, 10 days until school starts. He's in underwear & keeps claiming he doesn't need to go. He has gone before so I don't get it. I don't know what to do except for make pediatric urologist appointment. He does not complain of any pain & went a day & a half ago. I think he is purposely holding it but how on earth could a child hold it for a day & a half? He somewhat acts like he needs to go - kinda crossing his legs kind, messing with himself a little but when I say come sit on the potty, he says he doesn't need to go. I don't know what to do because when he was in nappies, he was going at least 4-6(?) times a day. So I don't think it is sudden urinary retention. This is my fault for lazily waiting this long. I could make excuses but am not going to. Just flat out 100% my fault. I think he got so used to it that he is hoping if he holds out, I will give him pull-ups back which is not going to happen. I'm so upset with myself for failing him this long.

Great advice!!! One tip I’d like to share is setting an alarm on your watch and/or phone to go off 30 mins to remind you to remind your child to use the potty! :) between my ADHD and running around like a nutcase all day it has been the biggest help for me! Hope this helps someone else too! 😊

I’m glad I came across the video and viewed the comments . I deal with people shaming me and my children for not being potty trained. I have twin boys they are both completely different and learn different . So I try alternative methods for each one of them. It gets frustrating and expensive always buying pull ups. But I understand that every child on this earth is different. And it just may not be their time. However, I want to remind any mother out there struggling with this issue to stay strong. Don’t listen to others. You know what’s best for your child. You got this !

[@ginnybuddenberg6765]

Words cannot describe how happy I am too have found this video. I have twin 3.5 year olds and potty training has been my living nightmare for the last 6 months. I have so many mom friends who are "surprised" that my girls aren't potty trained by now. There's so many "3 day potty training" methods it's disheartening and NONE of them work for my girls. All they do is stress all 3 of us out. This video made me feel so much better. Especially when you talk about stopping and starting. Just knowing that I'm not the only one who has 3+ year olds who aren't potty trained and that that doesn't make me or them failures. Thank you so much for this video ♥️

[@brittengelman4577]

My daughter is 3.5 as well. We have been trying to potty train for several months now. She likes to sit on the potty but has not actually gone to the bathroom yet. We are still trying to get her to wear underwear, she does not like them at all and runs anytime I mention trying them on. I've tried different styles and fabrics.

[@JelenaKrilova]

Twin mum here too! Potty training two at the same time is overwhelming! My girl twin got the weeing in a day, one day she just said she wanted big girl pants and no nappy, and that was it, very few accidents and she knew very well when she needed to go. My boy twin is still not able to tell when he needs to and is peeing his pants every time if I don't get the potty timing right. We've been trying for a week now and I'm ready to give up. Especially when both of them also poop in their pants 🙈

[@claypool4208]

I've got to say, I'm about in tears!! This is day 4 of probably our 5th attempt at potty training since roughly 13 months ago starting. My daughter is 3 years and 3 months. We're coming off of a looooong gap in trying because I made the executive decision that she just wasn't ready and me picking her up and sitting her on the potty to "at least try" was becoming more of a traumatic experience for her and I knew I'd fuck it up entirely if we didn't take a break or tried to force it. She's a VERY particular child as is. Sooooo I can get her to sit on the potty for what seems like hours, nothing! She camels that til the point of bursting at times. And I mean I've tried it all. Water sounds, actual water running, water activities on the potty, warm water in a bin with toys that she can "clean" on the potty, everything! I even let her use my phone on the potty which has led to 3 full wees on the potty!! BUT I'm worried she might not be listening to her body or even realizing when she goes? I dunno. I'm losing my mind and my patience but still forcing out "its okay, accidents happen" with a smile but what all am I doing wrong exactly?! I know she'll be so much happier without pullups!! Also not even close to.a.poop on the potty yet. Send help. 🤣😂🤣

My son will be 4 soon. This is him to a T! Sticker lasted 1 maybe 2 days then he got bored of them. Candy was exactly how you described. He’d want to sit on the potty every 5 mins and claim he went (sometimes did a tiny tiny bit) and say he peed and demand his M&M. I am not a patient mom tho and I have started showing my frustration in front of my son so I think it’s becoming a negative thing. He had like 4 of 6 signs of readiness when he was 2, but now...nothing. He doesn’t even hide to pee/poo anymore, just does it in front of us in his diaper. Like he doesn’t give af. Lol. Potty training shaming is real. Parents ask me all the time “he’s not potty trained yet?” And I feel like I’ve failed as a mom.

[@misslari24]

Basically, I told him no more diapers. Tried to get him hyped up about wearing "big boy" underwear. We couldn't do pull-ups either because he was too big. Bought underwear with cool patterns he liked - both briefs and boxer briefs so he could choose what was most comfortable. One incentive for him was that he knew if he pooped himself, he'd possibly be ruining his favorite undies for good. We used our regular toilet, not a training toilet. We have one of those "family" toilet seats that has a smaller seat that he could just pull down and sit on. Reminded him to go every 30 min or so. Volunteered to stay with him and help him, but he likes his independence, so I didn't hover too much. I know some people advise against treats, but it worked with my girls so I did it with him - 1 small candy for every pee in the potty, 2 for poop in the potty. They hardly ever get candy, so this was truly an incentive my girls were willing to work hard for. But my son didn't care as much about the treats. His biggest obstacle was the feeling of letting the pee and poop fall away from his body, and once it finally clicked that that was okay and normal, he relaxed and hasn't looked back. Every kid has their own hang ups and timing - your son will get the hang of it eventually! Just be supportive, not pushy. It won't happen until he's ready.

[@mandilake9227]

Love all your tips! Agreed, potty shaming moms really needs to stop. I have a small one for getting a child potty trained at night. I put a pair of panties on my daughter and then a pull-up over the panties. This helped her to feel when she was wet, but protected the bedding at the same time. There’s less to clean up, and she was able to make the connection rather than having the comfort of a diaper to get her through the night. Hope that helps another mom looking for a nighttime hack. Stay strong mamas, ya got this!!!

I am struggling with my 4yr old boy, he is just not interested at all with the toilet and every time l go to research tips on the internet, all l come across is how toddlers who aren't potty trained by a certain age are associated with bad parents, then l find myself just not wanting to try at all and pushing even the thought of trying away. I would just like to say thank you Vicky, your video really made me feel better about the topic as l've also read that "waiting until they are ready" is also just an excuse of bad parenting.

The chiropractor adjustments at 7 worked great to stop bed wetting. It stopped The first night. But after skateboarding or football practice immediately back wetting his bed. Pretty much happened until late teens because he refused to go back to chiropractor after a couple years. But if anyone wants to stop bed wetting go to chiropractor. It worked the very first time, the very first night for a week until he went skateboarding.

This video reaffirmed everything I’ve been telling my husband. My toddler just turned 3. We use the M&M reward system. My son doesn’t abuse it. Now thats its been 4 weeks, he doesn’t even care if he gets the candy or not. However, he wont poop on the potty and he wont tell us when he has to go. He will pee but hides to poop. He hates being soiled so I think I’ll try the training underwear instead of pull ups and make him clean up the mess. He also hates being exposed. So I’m hoping him being naked will frustrate him enough to tell us when he has to go. Hope this works.

What confuses us most is that he is perfectly continent when he is naked, but he is so scared of the potty that he doesn't even want to be near it. Even just the sight of the potty is negative for him. He'll be naked for hours, then pee in a nappy and take it off again. We've talked about it (positively) so much and we think he'll hardly have accidents once he's finally ready to ditch the nappies, it's just about getting there!

[@Speckled_Butterfly7206]

My son just hit 3, and he did have some delay, but he is doing much better now. I have had to go on leave from work to help my mother prep for her surgery and post surgery, and now we are about to start potty training for real as my prior work schedule did not give me real time to devote to it. Once i run out of the reserve of diapers, that's it. I can't wait till he can go. 🙏🏻

Exactly my problem. Thanks a lot!!

Looking for tips for my 3 year old who doesn’t talk thank you for this

[@YannaS727]

Thank you thank you for this video I swear when I hear people talk about how they potty trained their kid at 1 I’m like please stop! My kid is not your kid.

[@AllAboutKatherine88]

Really appreciate this video I have a son with autism who is not ready to be potty trained but I'm sooo ready for him to be but I guess it's when he ready

[@zzizahacallar]

Thank you for this. My toddler youngest daughter is stubborn and 3 not potty trained.

[@dr_ewcredible1756]

Thank you for this video. I’m a bit 3 years late watching this. But my kid is around 2 going on 3 and we do have a problem with communication at the moment plus potty training. But after watching, I now feel a bit more confident at the moment. Although the dynamics with the me and the other parent is different. I understand a bit more on how to handle a late potty trained kid.

[@candygarner7066]

very helpful video I have exactly the same experiment and problem about potty training my toddler .I am very happy watch and learn the tips.Fingers cross to my success !hoooo

[@coreyannhurst3447]

My 3 year old can not be bribed. Its insane. All she does is get mad that you won't give her what ever the bribe is because she refuses to use the potty regardless. 🤦‍♀️

[@sweeteverglades8381]

How is your daughter now

[@alitadsouza288]

So true...my daughter was the same

[@KarriSimone]

Wow thank you for this. I didn't know a lot of information thank you.

[@martanessl2865]

Thank you so much for your tips. I'm trying to potty train my 3 year old grandson and my gut was telling me that the he will go when he is ready. We have had so many starts and stops I lost count. I let my him run around nude and people tell me I'm crazy. I am relieved to hear this is one of your tips! I didn't go through this with my son or daughter so I was second guessing myself. You confirmed that I am not doing anything wrong. I feel so much beeter after watching your video. Thanks again.

This is my daughter right now at 3 years old thanks for sharing. I blame my self like always but your right they just might not be ready.

[@JasonCarrera-j2r]

Thanks for teaching me

Thanks for this! I followed her signs to start potty training and it made all the difference. I didn’t have expectations for full success right away, steadily she is making pee and poo on her schedule

i have 2.5 year old twins. i tried only once during first lockdown as it was warmer but didn't work out. then i gave up🙄 as patience is not one of my strength. and it was frustrating to me n my boys😥. i am going to wait till this summer and start again. so good luck to us💪. thank you for the tips. very practical and helpful😁

My daughter has a problem with her bowl she's always getting constipated makes toilet training very hard to keep consistent and every time over the YEARS when I take her to the doctor I just get told to keep giving laxatives now years later I've got her off the majority of laxative and go natrually...things haven't been easy I'll be downloading this video

I have 3yo twins and I’m so scared 😔

[@MonIya007]

Thank you for the video. My 3 1/2 yr old daughter just started to use her potty last week. I have been encouraging her for over a year but she has no interest in potty training and I just backed off. Until last week, she said, I have to pee in the potty. My husband and I were shocked. She is just scared to poop in the potty. This is the struggle we have with her. But we will not force her to poop, we will wait when she's ready.

[@ErinMorgan-o1d]

Best way to go is to literally teach baby how their body functions. Think about how you, yourself feel when you’ve digested food and how long it takes before it’s “potty time”! I a Dedicated, Peaceful, QUIET place,Take their hand and help them get in touch with their body! Guide their hand to their tummy and Very Sweetly explain that after they eat, (they’ll understand after going around THEIR Appropriate Times!), that their food wants to come out. Then guide their little hand while explaining “This is how food goes inside our bodies.” Gently and Sweetly (Patiently), guide their hand down from their belly to their peepee and then poopee. Explain (Sweetly), that this is where our nibbles come out . Now we can Feel our “Foodee” need to come out our “peepee and poopee”. Take your Sweet, Pleasant time explaining this WITH THEM and I GUARANTEE YOUR SWEET PEA WILL PEEPEE & POOPEE IN THE RIGHT PLACE!!! ❤😊🧸 🎊 🎉

I’m having such a hard time with my four year old. she doesn’t mind being in pee pants, unless I notice and change her she just stays in them. She’s about to turn 5 and still has at least 10 accidents a day. First year of school she would come home with a bag of wet pants every day. She has no development delays. I’m so desperate for this to end . My first child is 10 and she never had this problem I don’t know what to do 😔

Thank you for this video because I’m on the verge of giving up potty training. I can’t fully put my preschooler in preschool because of the child not being 100% potty trained. It’s difficult and I need help before I throw in the towel.

How long did u try for before realising she was still having too many accident and to try again another time?

[@tarrahrogers9933]

I have been struggling hard with my five year old (her dad is the one who shames me for that, everyone else has encouraged me to have her evaluated) and my three year old wants to be just like his big sister so he’s been a little tougher too but he shows interest. I’ve felt like the worst mom because my older two got it in DAYS at or by 3 years old. Day one in underwear for my 3 year old…wish us luck

[@beth8132]

I'm so glad I came across this video. My girl is nearly 3. She just won't. I've been hit, bit, and the potty and toilet seat thrown at me. My girl is happy walking around f in pee soaked clothes ( obviously, I do clean and change her as soon as she's wee or soiled) She just "cleans" her own mess. She's been classed as a busy child, and when she's older, she will most likely be sent for an adhd assessment. She was 2 prem and walked 2 or 3 months late according to child development literature. Her speech is average and her emotional intelligence is exceptionally good. She goes the pre school for 2 hours a day. But in September she needs to be toilet/potty trained for school as my school has a dull view on sending a child in with nappies. We have all the equipment needed, but she says they are all too hard and cold... even the padded toilet seats.

[@TheMummyBubble]

Best of luck to you, we had exactly the same thing at age 3, months of stress and all of a sudden it just got easier and we had it cracked in a matter of days. I think some kids just don't have any interest in it. One thing that can help is allocating a whole week where you are not too busy and sticking close to home, keeping trips out to a minimum and having alarms on your phone regularly to remind her to try to go. I'm sure you will crack this!

[@beth8132]

@TheMummyBubble thank you, I really appreciate it. I've got no help or guidance on how to potty train. I've been told I've started too early, then I've been told I've started too late and my H.V just says my daughter will do it I her own time. I only work one day a week, so when she's ready..... I'm ready. 😃

[@themessesIallow]

Great video ❤

[@andaprojuma447]

I wanted to potty train my daughter the easy way, keep her wearing pull ups and just putting her on the toilet every 2h or so, but she would just pee in her pull ups. Then I bought cloth diapers and tried that way, so she would feel wet, but I didn't have to deal with puddles everywhere. That did not work also. Then I decided that puddles are unavoidable and she started to wear underwear. For 2 weeks we had so many accidents in her pants and she would never say that she needs to go. But after 2 weeks she started to say - I need to go to potty. We still sleep in pull ups, but during the day we are alright. When I read about this topic, I found that 2 weeks are the time nessecary to train your child. Not 2 or 3 days, but 2 weeks. Thats a long time to keep cleaning up the messes, but I think that is what you should be preparing yourself for. Good luck everybody who struggles.

[@kritika462]

He is almost 5 years old. He literally refuses to go. We are trying to get to the potty every 20 minutes and he just goes in his undies 2 minutes after the toilet time. He is screaming and crying because he is scared because it's different and he's scared.

[@tallchicknvegas]

PT issues can be very stressful for families. Sometimes the child needs someone other than the parent. Especially if you naturally coddle him/her. I help parents by having them video a few struggles and leave the child with me Friday - Sunday. Most success with just 1 weekend. The child doesn't want to return to my firm military scared straight method. It's mainly for children who play games with the process, but it helps slow learners too. They have an epitome almost overnight.

[@elenarae_]

Dear moms and dads, don't feel ashamed and guilty that your child is not following what other parents are doing at a certain time frame. Even if your child will get potty trained at 4 years old, it will never be on his or her resume. So really, it doesn't matter. Do what works best for you and your family. My daughter is 3 months shy from turning 3 and I am watching the videos now to see if I could potty train her. She pooped in the toilet twice already within the last year. But I'm trying to do it to avoid diaper usage. I'm a single mom, and want to be wiser with my finances. So pray for me that we will be successful in this journey. Thank you!

[@mcsmaria28]

We have been trying with our 3-and-a-half, almost four year old son for what feels like an eternity.He knows how to use the potty. He will use it, if he feels like it. But for the most part- he is still in diapers. If he’s diaper less, he will pee on the floor and sometimes poop. I ask him if he wants to and he refuses nearly every time. But, every once and a while, he will use the potty on his own; but then he’ll go back to the status quo. I don’t know what to do anymore and I’m at my wits end. I’m terrified that he will never be potty trained and he will be in diapers forever.

We've tried several times and it's nuts. I do see that she's behind verbally and is just now starting to talk well. She will peepee in the potty, so I think ok...time gir panties....ummm nope😢 it's constant accidents and I don't want to force her. I just don't know how to help her.
