Does anyone have any helpful hints on potty training 2 year old girls? My son was so easy, thank god I'm having another boy, I want to get her potty trained within the next 2-3 months before. The baby gets here.

    When u find out let me know cause I've been trying my hardest to train my daughter. She does poop but no pee.

    Don't use pull ups. My daughter would just go in them because they keep the heat like diapers. Get big girl undies. She will pee herself and hate it. Took me 2 weeks this way to fully train my 2 year old. Now she's 3 and wears panties to sleep, no accidents. I laugh when she poops so she wants to go on the potty to make me laugh, then she flushes and we wave bye bye

    I got the pull UPS with cool alert...she tells me after the fact I even tried taking her every hour...she waits until she gets back upstairs....boys are so much easier.

    Thr cool alert are just a gimmick. Try the panties. I used pull ups for almost a year and she would still go in them. As son as I put her in undies exclusivley she went to the toilet. I would put her to bed with undies then as soon as she fell asleep put a nighttime pull up on her. Remember too if little kids don't go poop bc there scared they cab get backed up really easy. I had to take my daughter to the hospital because if ir. She now had to take miramax, it works like a charm!

    Awesome thanks I will defiantly have to try it! It will be so much easier when the new one gets her if the other two use the potty.

    Take her toget the undeware, let her pick them out, explain to her she is a big girl an no more baby diapers an have her throw them away when u get home,,, it worked for my daughter and now she is 5 she may slip,up while aleep,, but as long as she uses the potty befor bed she is just fine

    I took my daughter to buy knickers when I needed to buy them and then we put them on together. When I needed a wee she came with me took her about 3 weeks to get the hang of it this was when she was nearly 2 she now nearly 3 and been dry day and night since

    I totally agree; I had a hard time switching to undies full time- I was caught up in being afraid of pee getting all over, but it only took a few days! We took her to Target & she picked out Princess underwear & I explained to her that princesses always use the potty & don't wear diapers & that did it. We also sing songs & read books on the pottty. She was completely out of diapers at 2 & 1 month, even at night. Good luck! Find whatever your girl loves & play that up! Good luck! =)

    It also helps to use the potty by routine throughout the day; when they get up, after breakfast, snack, lunch, dinner, and last thing before bedtime... and don't make a big deal out of not going every time or accidents; just stay calm, keep your face neautral & say "Good try, honey! We'll try again soon!"

    You can also have your daughter wear underwear under the pullups so she feels thw wetness from the underwear.
