hi its called regression, most kids do it, dont know why but you have to persevere, my lo is 19 months and have finally cracked potty training within a week thankfully, weve been out and no accidents whatsoever. You have to just keep trying, she will get it again shes possibly just messing you about, try rewarding her when she does go on the potty maybe a sticker chart and a cheap toy at the end of the week or something if there has been no accidents, sometimes the usual praise isn't enough especially at a young age.

I think putting her back in nappies is probs for the best for now. I don't know your little one but either she's messing you about or she's not ready yet. I'd say leave her til she's about 2.

Hi 'mummy2twins' try reading my other post in 19-2?months forum, 'POTTY TRAINING, GREAT, BAD, WORSE' I tried the advise the lady gave me and so far today 'touch wood' it seems to be working, no accidents and I'm not using th potty just the big girls toilet. Yesterday by this time we'd had bout 4 wees on the floor so I'm holding out hope!!

hey hun i have had exactly the same prob with my lo she is 20 months and for 5 days dint have any accidents nd now for the last week she hasnt been on the potty once!!!!she just stands there n wees n then points to it and says wee wee!!!i have put her back in nappies for now cos think i may have tried her a bit too young althou she understands what she has to do ie wee in the potty- im still not sure she is old enough to understand why- ie so she doesnt get wet- so hoping if i leave her for a few weeks she may ask to use the potty

My DD is 19 months old and has been going on the potty for about the last 3 weeks. The problem is that to start with she was brilliant she would always get herself on to the potty if she needed to go and only had maybe 1 or 2 accidents a week also she was completely dry over night and would wait to wee until she was put on the toilet in the morning. the trouble is that for the last week-2 weeks she's just been weeing wherever she's standing and then coming to tell me even if she's stood right next to her potty she'll still wee on the floor and sometimes thinks it's funny. I just can't understand why she is relapsing so badly, we always made such a big fuss singing & dancing when she used the potty so she knew she she was doing a good thing but as the days go by she's getting worse and worse and today I've finally had enough and I've put her back in a nappy. Any help would be greatly appreciated







sorry but i think putting her back n napppys will knock her back when she has been so good and clever.
mos kids go through the relaps stage you just had to reenbforce it again and dont worry she will soon pick it up again
good luck huni xxx
