[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not great, seems when we can't do it in the week we start from the beginning again. I've taken her every 30 mins and we've had a couple of successes, but we've had a couple of accidents as well after sitting for 10 minutes which has been frustrating. I'm not so sure why she isn't ready when we take her for the accidents.

She's seems to be starting to develop a fever, so she's not as full of energy compared to last weekend, but we'll keep trying[/quote]

She’s not ready. Try again in a few months. You’re making it stressful for her and for yourself.[/quote]

Op here - she needs to do it by Fall,  about half the people I speak to say it was stressful. She's 3 now and that's too old?

We didn't get much further on Sunday.  We've not had a chance to work on it over the last two evenings,  but will try and go naked and on a timer this evening[/quote]

Between now and the fall is a lot of time. She will mature, and her body will be rapidly changing between now and then. I’ll reiterate that it doesn’t sound like she’s ready nor you’re ready and if she’s not telling you, she needs to go to the bathroom when you’re not pushing her then you’re setting each other up for failure. Try again in two months.

Op here Should I be speaking to a doctor if she's not ready at 3, sorry all the books and information I've read have had this as the top end for the range. We will try again this weekend, but if we don't get there we'll hit pause as it is getting me upset I can't support her and teach her through this and I really don't want to pass that onto her[/quote]

DP.  I can’t speak to the age appropriateness (but I’m always pro ask your doctor to confirm/deny whatever the internet tells you), but I will say this: potty training is HARD on parents.  There’s literally no way you can connect the dots for your kid since it’s all inside their bodies/brains.  And often this is the first time we’ve had this experience with our kids.  I really struggled with that aspect (as a parent).  Just want to put it out there that your feelings make sense.  And also dealing with accidents/the stress of waiting for an accident is extremely wearing.  Best of luck with whatever you decide to do and know that this doesn’t make you a crap parent![/quote]

OP here, thanks for the kind message, yep it's one of the few things I can try to enable her, but can't do or help her. I'm giving this weekend our all, but if we're not consistent we'll probably pause and pick it up soon[/quote]
