So we’ve been in the process of potty training our 4th and youngest child. One might think I was an expert at this by now but alas, I am not. Each kid had their own personality. Each kid had interests at different times. The one thing that’s been a constant and helps both me and my potty training kid are Huggies Pull-Ups® from Dollar General.
My youngest is my only daughter. The only girl I’ve had to work on potty training with. She started showing an interest in potty training about a year and a year ago. I’d start putting her on her little potty when I went to the potty. She didn’t do anything at first but pretty quickly she learned to pee on the potty. Peeing on the potty is not the issue right now, it’s doing #2. She’ll literally go and hid behind the couch or under a table and poop her pants. Some of my boys did that too and I have no idea why. Unfortunately she’s so quiet about it I don’t always know what she’s doing until I hear a grunt or smell her. If I catch her on time I’ll immediately carry her to the potty.
One thing I though might encourage her is getting her “big girl” Huggies Pull-Ups® training pants from Dollar General. (Just so you know they also have a $2 off coupon in the DG digital coupons section.) Huggies Pull-Ups® training pants have some of her favorite characters on them like Doc McStuffins, Sophia the First, and Cinderella for the overnight ones.
When it’s warm enough I let her just run around the house in a shirt and her Huggies Pull-Ups® so she’s ready when she has to go.
I also set the timer on the stove for 1 hour. Every time she goes I set the timer for an hour again. When she hears the timer go off she knows it’s time to go potty again. The funny part is now sometimes when I use the timer for cooking she hears it and heads right to the bathroom.
We have bathroom upstairs and a bathroom downstairs. I keep a seat insert for the downstairs toilet and a toddler potty for the upstairs bathroom. I can’t really say one works better for her than the other. Of all the things we use I think the Huggies Pull-Ups training pants and the timer are the key tools for her. I also took the Pull Ups Potty Training Personality Quiz because I could use all the help I can get. Just because I’m potty training my 4th kid doesn’t mean I don’t still needs some advice now and again.
