i've started potty trainning her since she was 18 months with the potty seat...i took her very easy..with no shouting or punishment....but till now she is not regular to it ...and this problem is only with peeing ....sometimes she spends weeks excellent and she tells me when she wants to go to the bathroom...and suddenly she just hides it from me...and hold herself till she pees in her pantis or at least a drop or 2 wets her underwear...what shall i do?
p.s...she never wets her bed at night..it only happens when she is awake.....

honestly there's not much you can do..she maybe just being stubborn or she doesn't want to stop doing what she's doing to go to the bathroom..try just asking her every 30mins to an hour if she needs to go..if you see it's been a while bring her and put her on the potty...good luck

She could just still be uncertain about the potty. She doesn't want to completely go to it. When she is having an off day make the best of it. Ask her if she needs to go to the bathroom often and put her on atleast once an hour. Once she is fully okay with it you won't have so many problems, some children take a while to get used to it.

Just keep asking every so often maybe she gets to busy doing something and doesn't want to take the time to go. After an hour tell her it's a potty break and set her on the potty just to try don't get mad if she doesn't go but at least tried to.

Is there a charactor your child really likes? buy or print out stickers of her favorite charactor and paste them to her undies and then tell her not to get pee pee on "whoever".
Tell her when it's time to go to the bathroom. Aftermeals. mid play time and fun activities, before going outside, after coming inside etc. So that she gets into the rutine of going.
Just keep with it. She will get it... you are heading in the right direction, you might not be able to see it but I can see the finish line for you! Don't quit and Don't get angry. She may just be having a hard time identifying the sensation right before she has to go. Your child is trying really hard to impress you so keep going.

My daughter did that. Her excuse was she forgets to go. We kept preaching to her that it was good (hygiene) for her to hold it. Even had the doctor explain this. It finally sank in.
Keep preaching without shouting, etc. and don't give up.
