[quote=Anonymous]DD is 2.5 (3 in July). She 100% understands the potty and has for some time, but she got freaked out about 6 months ago when she pooped on it and surprised herself. since then, I've been waiting for her to come around and it hasn't happened, but she shows every other sign of readiness so I decided to bite the bullet.

In short, today blows.

Started off awesome, she tinkled first thing and was super proud of herself. Then, I think she felt like she needed to poop while she was on the toilet and she FLIPPED. Doesn't want to go on it, has had 2 poop and 2 pee accidents, all immediately after I've either taken her to the potty or asked her if she needed to go. We are doing underwear while awake and pullups for sleep, the "Diaper Fairy" came last night and took all the diapers.

We have made the biggest f'ing deal of this - told all her preschool teachers, family, etc - so I don't think we can back out (plus, I think she would cheerfully wear dipes forever) but I am so discouraged. Just venting, but can someone make me feel better? :( My mom said "Oh, you trained yourself," and most of my friends have said "no big deal!" [/quote]
