2.5 year old asking for toilet then FREAKING out at said toilet
So my daughter is 2.5 and not yet potty trained. We potty trained our son when he was 3 and it was such a breeze. No accidents when training and he got it down in less than 3 days. I know I shouldn’t compare them, but I think we were so successful because we waited so long. He absolutely seemed ready. He’s also an agreeable child. My daughter is the opposite. She’s strong willed and not showing enough potty training readiness signs (diapers aren’t staying dry for 2 hours, zero indication she’s going pee, and she’s also struggling with poop right now). Anyway, over the last few days she will randomly scream “need toilet!!!!” we would tell her she has a diaper on and can go pee but that doesn’t calm her down. So we bring her to the toilet and she absolutely loses it. We’ve tried a small plastic potty in the bathroom, small plastic potty in the family room (don’t worry no carpet haha), regular toilet with child seat, and regular toilet without child seat. We’ve also tried introducing the small child potty when she isn’t stressed about it but no matter the environment she loses her ever loving mind when we bring her to one. Has anyone experienced this? Potty training is such a sensitive thing and I don’t want her to be in distress around it. Thank you!
