How do you moms deal with accidents potty training? Leonel went poop for his first time on the toilet today. Said he was done I cleaned him up and then put on his underwear and after he took a Bigger poop in his underwear and peeped on my kitchen floor. 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

I handle it very calmly. I say:
“Uh oh, looks like we had an accident. That’s okay. Accidents happen. Let’s clean this up and get you some new clothes. Then we can try again.”
Some parents get mad or frustrated. I try my hardest not to. I don’t ever want my children to be afraid to tell me things. I want to be their safe space.

That’s exactly what I didn’t want is him to think I’m punishing him but after I clean him I do sit him on the potty while I clean the mess. And I was thinking to myself that’s kinda like a time out. That’s probably why he isn’t wanting to use the potty? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😭 I try to sit him on the potty first thing when he wakes up while I cook. And a little after anything to drink or eat & before bed. But he doesn’t seem to be interested in it at all.

@leonelsmom., It’s all so confusing! Especially because every child is different. We did something similar, just kept putting our son on the potty at first. He had good and bad days. Some days he tried. Other days it seemed forced. But honestly, the best he has done is when we’ve just put him in undies and backed off. Now he just runs to the bathroom himself when he has to go. He still has accidents sometimes but he’s had enough accidents to know that he doesn’t like the way it feels when he pees himself. So he’s learning! It’s trial and error and you’ll have good days and bad days. Once he’s actually interested, it’ll just click for him though. I promise! We’ve been told that many times but it took firsthand experience to really understand it. Just keep offering positive guidance and support. It’s all you really can do. Keep up the good work!

I never say “it’s okay” instead I say “oops! Poop and pee go in the potty, let’s get you cleaned up”. Accidents will happen, they’re still learning. Just don’t give it negative attention and they’ll come along.
