In the same boat. Daughter’s birthday is April 17th.

have you tried thin underwear my daughter kept peeing in the training ones and i switch to the thin ones and it worked for us.

My daughter was the same way. We took her to the park in underwear (on accident) she peed all over herself and we forgot a change of clothes so she had to play in wet pants (we did bing a pull up) and after that she has been a big fan of using the potty. Instead of doing at a park you could play outside or in the house and make her sit in it for a while. It's gross but effective

The book "oh crap!" Suggests that it's muscle memory. Underwear fits like a diaper so their unconscious mind thinks it's a diaper. The book suggests going commando for a few weeks then trying underwear. This is actually acting as a reminder for me that I meant to attempt underwear today. (It also suggests buying a size up)

We also started a potty chart that she fills out with stickers and she gets rewards each time she fills out a row. It really got her excited to use the potty. She will do anything for a sucker or toy 🤣

We don’t use underwear at home- just sweatpants and a tshirt. When we travel we use trainers that are super absorbent and bring our 2yo to the potty every 30 minutes if possible.

My son will be 3 on April 6th and if I put him on the toilet he will pee and poop. He will tell me if he needs to pee or poop. He gets excited about big boy underwear. He even took a nap in underwear and didn’t have an accident. But after his nap he screams and cries for his diaper… do we force him to keep wearing the underwear?
