Potty training a 3.5 year old girl?

Question

my neice was doing ok kinda. she was using the potty most times, would have a few accidents. now the other day she pooped in her pull up twice and peed on the floor. what are the secrets of potty training a 3.5 year old girl. they have tried, letting her pick treats at night if she stays dry all day, putting her in her room, making her sit on the potty and growling. any ideas?

Answer 1

There is no trick.  That is one of the last things that belong to them and that they have some control over.  When they are ready they will go on their own.  Reinforce what a big girl she is getting to be and remind her that big girls go on the potty not in their pants.  Remember this, how many kids do you see in kindergarten that are not potty trained.  (none)

My granddaughter was almost four and now that she is, it is all a distant memory.  Hang in there because she is closer than you know to being potty trained.

Answer 2

Let me know if you find the trick.... You are not alone!

Answer 3

Little kids will have set backs there was probably a reason for what happened, even if it was something unseen as she just feeling a little under the weather, not to fret and be consistent about taking her to the potty. But personally with one of mine I had to give her 3 Skittles every time she went #1 and 3 every time she went #2, 6 for both. My last one doesn't even care about the Skittles she just wanted to wear big girl panties,maybe they should try to put big girl panties on her because I found out if my youngest wore a pull-up she didn't go potty like she should because it just got thrown away like a diaper.

Answer 4

well after she plays make her sit on the potty until she goes the after meals and naps and get like chocolet chips or m&ms and if she pees she gets 1 ad if she poops she gets 2

Answer 5

my daughter was 2yrs old when she was potty trained all u can do is tell her the next time she needs to go let someone know and when she does make up a song about going to the potty and then shell keep going thats all there is to it
