help regressing two year old

edited September 2011 in Parenting
I need some advice.......my two year old is repressing not really bad bit I want to nip it in the butt before it gets worst...... She now wants to run around with a pacifier and is popping in her pants....... What do I do before she would go three four even a whole week w/out an accident now she is having them 2-3 times a day and won't poop in the toilet any more I have gave her some Responsibility like cleaning her mess and helping with baby feeding and getting her dressed and bathing her trying to make her apart of the whole baby process.......

  • it might just be her way of asking for more attention, my daughter is 2 and tries to act like shes also a baby sometimes, remember that a baby is something new for her and she probably doesnt like all the attention the baby is getting from everyone, just give her time so she can start getting used to it and while you do that give the toddler alot of attention as well
  • @Janet_2011 & @oregonmama I'm gonna try that she just started acting out it worries me a bit...... I try to keep her involved as Mich as possible with the baby and house work and even in the grocery shopping I let her choose pick out some things...... I think when we go school shopping for her I'm gonna make it a day for me n her school shopping and park and out to eat..... I just feel bad cause she is a momma girl all the way I can't even piss w/out her up under me and she used to crawl in bed with me but since the baby and I'm bad at co-sleeping (don't judge please I know the benefits and the consequence but I am also a very light sleeper) its hard for hee to do that now I can't hold her so she sleep right below baby......
  • Lol @oregonmama....... It's like even though the crib right next to the Ned I feel safer with her right there with me where I can feel her at all times Hell I have a heart attack when people hold her
  • She needs some special one on one time with you. I know you are tired and want to relax and nap when the baby is napping but you should take that time to read her books, watch cartoons, color, or just simply play. She wants your attention. Also, if she goes a while without an accident then reward her with a toy.
  • She wants to be the baby. My friends daughter is doing the same. Take her and have mommy daughter dates and tell her you need her to be your big princess cause its a special job and only she can do it. Then tell her what this magical princess does. It works for the most part.

    If that fails treat her like a baby and take away the yummy food and give her plain nasty baby food and put her in a diaper and let her sit in her poo and she will get tired of it lol. Its a phase and jealousy will come after the baby. But just show her you love her just as much and cuddle with her. Good luck mommy everything will work out I promise
