[quote=Anonymous]She’s ready. When my 2.5 year old DS peed in the shower to imitate his 5 year old brother, I knew he was ready and he potty trained very soon after. IMHO at this point it’s more about the parent being ready than the kid - it’s mentally so tough to stay positive and encouraging. What worked for us were special potty stickers (small smiley face ones in different colors so he could pick his favorite every time) — not the m&m’s that I thought would be a sure bet with this sweets-loving kid. Days 1-3 were so hard with him peeing on the floor quite a bit but it clicked on day 4. Poop took longer with this kid. What worked for that was letting him pick a big prize and putting it in the house where he could “visit” it. He came to look at it daily and I told him he could have it when he pooped on the potty. It took a week or two but as soon as he did it, he asked for the toy and he got to open it. You’ve got this![/quote]
