My daughter is 2 years and 8 months. She toilet trained very well, with the exception of one set back, she had a temporary regretion when I started to train her twin sister, that however solved very quickly and simply. Then last week she was clearly in pain doing wees and is now terrified to go any where near the potty or toilet to wee or poo! She is clearly very very distressed and I just don't know what to do to help. I would be so grateful for any help or advise.
Many thanks

Hello Marion,
I hope your daughter is doing a little better.
If not, try returning to diapers. Will she go in the diaper without complaining? If so, take a break from training and give her a chance to recover from the fear she's developed.
Did you eliminate the possibility of a urinary tract infection? If she is still having problems, and particularly if she complains when she uses a diaper, check with her pediatrician to be sure there isn't a medical reason for the sudden and apparent pain.
After a little break and checking with the doctor, resume training. I recommend talking about it with your daughter first. Talk about how exciting it will be to wear big girl underwear again and how proud you will be of her when she chooses to use the potty again. Don't pressure her but rather watch for signs that she is willing to try again.
Let me know how it goes. And good luck!
Sincerely,
Narmin |
