Here's her bio and general tips: Hello I am Ceiamaria I am a stay at home Mother to 4 children ages 12,8,7 and 11 months old. I am happily married for 12 years and we are still going strong. I am determined and driven for success FAILURE isn't an option for me. I potty trained my oldest at 9 months old. My 2 middle son's were more difficult they were between 18 months and 2 years old. My baby boy was showing interest in potty training, I decided to buy him a potty chair. Potty training tips 1.) Don't rush your child 2.)Don't yell at your child 3.) Don't punish your child for having accidents 4.) Don't give you child candy 5.) Don't compare other children to your child 6.) Do praise your child 7.) Clap your hands when your child goes to the potty. 8.)Take your child every 15-30 minutes to the potty 9.)Don't criticize your child 10.) I don't recommend pull ups but I don't bash mothers who decided to use them. 11.) Remember potty training is not taught in one day you have to be determined to potty train your child.

Anyone tried these before & it worked? What are your suggestions for potty training. My daughter will be 3 on Tuesday and we’re still in pull-ups 😞. I feel like a failure sometimes because she’s not fully potty trained & I slack off a lot.
This week I’m going to start the potty training journey. I just pulled out her potty chair and she was so excited. I would love to hear any tips you have!!!
Any tips on potty training girls?!?! She literally comes to tell me that she has pooped and drags me to change her but I can’t get her on the pot. She’ll use it when she wakes up in the morning but that’s because I bribed her with a cookie 🤦🏽 ♀ . I’m out of ideas now
TWW!! 2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

You could try cloth diapers. They will feel more like undies

@prestonjeanetta0120, My son just wears diapers and tells me when he has to use the potty. He doesn't like to go in his diaper so he takes his pants and diaper off when he has to go. We're just using up the rest of his diapers. If you want to let her walk around naked, then definitely do that. But if you can't find underwear or pull ups that fit her, then a diaper in public is really your only option.

@danad269, she only 1 she’ll try and eat the sticker lol . But I’ll think of something we do handclaps when she goes but I know I still have to think of something cause I’m sure she’ll get tired of sitting .

@prestonjeanetta0120, I will let her sit there for a few mins, if she doesn’t go try after another 5 mins go by until she goes. Or reward her every time she goes w a sticker or a sticker chart. That also sometimes helps them now they are getting something but sounds like she is on a good start on her own

@kalidream, I have a girl so I don’t want her walking around naked I guess I can put a tee on her or a dress and let her be and put her down every 30 min and between time hope she doesn’t pee the floor a lot because we have carpet everywhere lol . She’s pees a lot so she can’t go an hr without sitting cause she’s drinks water all day long pretty much

@aengs2, okay so what do you do ? I only wanted her in her diapers during naps and bedtime . I know I have to sit her down every 30 mins cause she pees a lot due to always drinking . But when she’s not on potty do I just let her walk around with nothing on cause if she pees herself in between I want her to realize it and know that that’s a no no

I never used pull ups. I let them walk around naked and then went to underwear. When we went out I would put the plastic underwear over the regular ones to keep them from wetting through their clothes.

@prestonjeanetta0120, I just put summer dresses on my daughter w no underwear on while around the house so she could go whenever she needed to
